Description of the home
Welcome to our Surry Hills Victorian Manor! (our lil Bourke St Paradise). We have lived here for 5 years now and fortunate to call this place home, our sanctuary, after it was newly renovated (1890s grand terrace). Location location location! In the heart of Sydney, 10 mins walking to Central Station, a stone throw from every pub on Oxford and Crown St, whilst nestled within trendy cafes and fine dining - the best of both worlds! Gorge on Bourke St pastries, keep-cup your way through local cafes and stretch your active wear in Centennial Park!
The house is 3 storeys - a true Victorian beauty. Large white ceilings and arched doorways. Open planned living with a big kitchen. 1st floor features three rooms (including your room) with the central bathroom including bathtub and shower (all in original condition) + backyard features an additional outdoor renovated bathroom + laundry (washer and dryer). The top level is the loft - the fourth room. Backyard opens onto a shared laneway. Secluded get-away from city life in the background, with palm trees providing shade and serenity from the city life.
There is no set parking spot, but we have two car park permits and previous housemates with a car have never had an issue with getting a park on our street.

I live with Alice (she/her, 31) and Emily (she/her, 26). Alice is an ex-(R)Adelaidian architect/set designer, trivia guru, literature and rower extraordinaire. Em is a good-looking, wise-cracking, pipe-smoking New York detective who has yet to meet a case she cannot solve. (She is none of those things… just a sydney local working in theatre management who loves improv, comedy shows, and wiggling about onstage as a drag king).
We all are a sucker for a good glass (or 3) of wine, communal dinners and games night. You will find us at one of the many local pubs, gallery hunting or dining our way through the city. Very easy-going, foodies and we attempt to have a green-thumb by our numerous attempts to keep our ferns alive!
We love having friends over for dinner + drinks and will never say no to an impromptu loungeroom dance!
Please no DJers, baes with babies, anti-vaxers, disturbing food habits that will cause trauma for the house - all based on the previous flatemate.finder traumas!
Tell us about yourself and let's organise a time for you to check out the place and meet us!
