Other information
Very big room at the front of the house, it will easily fit a desk and arm chair, or a couch. Nice outlook to the front garden and quiet cul-de-sac street. It's light-filled and airy with a beautiful leadlight bay window and plantation shutters. It has an open fireplace, which is just for decoration as it's toasty warm with thermostatically controlled hydronic heating.

Home Description

Description of the home

Large, beautiful, light-filled newly renovated home, 3 big bedrooms (yours is huge, 4.7 x 4.0m, plus bay window), study, 2 bathrooms, large open plan living area, sun-filled deck and huge garden. Hydronic heating throughout, underfloor heating in the bathrooms and air conditioning in the living area. Big block, surrounded by trees in lovely, quiet, leafy-green Alphington. The house is in a quiet cul-de-sac with friendly and considerate neighbours. High, pressed metal ceilings, leadlight windows, plantation shutters and polished floorboards throughout.

The kitchen has a new 6 burner Smeg stove/oven, double drawer F&P dishwasher and F&P fridge. Two super comfy Freedom couches, two armchairs, a massive solid teak dining table and chairs and an outdoor table and chairs on the deck. There’s a big old shed out the back with a bit of storage.

Couple of minutes walk to the station, bus stop, awesome cafes and restaurants. The beautiful Darebin Parklands are a few minutes walk away as is the Yarra River. Jump on your bike and the city's 30mins ride way.

It really is a beautiful home and a lovely place to live.

About the occupants
I'm David, single, graphic designer, I work from home in a separate study. I’m physically and socially active and health conscious. I love riding my bike, yoga, walking, dancing, dinner/cafe with friends, live music, arts/cultural events, camping, reading. I’m easy-going, respectful, considerate, health-conscious, self aware, emotionally intelligent and don't take myself too seriously.

John - My housemate is a lovely fellow, he shares pretty much all of the attributes as above plus brings a few unique qualities of his own to the house. He loves cycling too and is often out riding his bike.
Compatible people
We'd like someone who is easy-going, respectful, considerate, health-conscious, self aware and emotionally intelligent. We like to keep the house clean and tidy without being too anal or feeling the need for post-it notes and rosters.

Ideally we'd like someone with a regular job, who isn’t looking for a party house but is at least somewhat socially, physically and culturally active. We can enjoy each others company, have a good laugh but also respect each others space and quiet time.
