Home Description

Description of the home

Very large 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom (2 toilets) townhouse overlooking the river in Maylands - to share with 1 other.

This is a large, open-plan corner house that gets a beautiful cross breeze with windows on three sides of the house. It is split over two levels, so there is plenty of space for two people sharing. The third room is my office, I often work from home. There is a very large living space with a wood burner which leads into the open plan kitchen and dinning room which is fantastic for entertaining. The kitchen opens out into a two-level patio with an outdoor living (4-seater table, fire pit, shed, beautiful garden with flower beds).

The house is in a fantastic location right on the river. Maylands train station is only a 10 minute walk, plenty of buses about 2-3 mins walk. Maylands (Eighth Ave cafe strip) and Mount Lawley shops (Beaufort St) are both about 5 minute drive.

The house also comes with two cats, one ginger and white cat called Chewbacca and a fluffy tabby called Obi :)
Must like cats as they roam freely - this is their house too!

I’d like to try an initial 6 months sharing just to make sure that we both get on and are happy living together. I'd be happy to discuss longer term sharing when we meet.

About the occupants
I'm a female marine biologist working full time and completing a PhD part-time at Curtin University - I work A LOT, often at home during the week. Someone who enjoys keeping a neat and tidy home will fit in well.

I'm originally from the UK and have been in Perth for around 12 years, with a couple of stints back in the UK with work. I'm really easy going and like to enjoy a few glasses of wine or beers on the weekends or every now and then in the week. I'm pretty active and enjoy running, swimming and getting out on the bike. I love to travel and am always thinking where my next adventure will be!
Compatible people
I'd like to share with someone who will treat the house as a home rather than a flatshare. I own the house and love living here. I like keeping the house clean and tidy and a place to relax, so I am looking for someone who will also be clean, tidy and equally as respectful. I've been living here just over 1 year and have made it my home, and am looking for another person who will add to the 'homey' vibe and appreciate this beautiful place.
Description of pets
Fluffy male ginger and white cat and tabby cat - very cool and chilled boys :) (the real owners of the house)
