Home Description

Description of the home

This is a beautiful old colonial home which has been divided into 2 registered flats, and this is the larger of the two. Big and spacious, with large rooms and a big hallway. Modern bathroom with separate toilet. New kitchen. Has a great front veranda with view, and a large allotment with plenty of trees. Free mowing is included for the entire lawn. Air Conditioned - 2 very large bedrooms have split system air conditioning. The 3rd room is a single bedroom that comes with a separate study. The NBN internet is very speedy and is fast enough for a full house. After living here for a year, the living room is fully furnished with couches and tables, a TV and a few gaming consoles, with a few extra cabinets and draws.

Down the road there is a Cafe, and a 10 minute walk to Alexandra Avenue will take you to a Night owl, A pharmacy and an all you can eat/drink Mongolian BBQ! As well as a vegetable/fruit shop. Toowong shopping center is a 20 minute walk away, containing a Coles, clothes stores and restaurants. Opposite this is the Royal Exchange, a bar visited by mainly UQ students.

Transport wise, the house is a 7 minutes walk from Taringa Train Station, making it quick to get into the city if you don't have a car, and is 100m from the 414 bus - which heads straight to UQ. The 428 is a 300 meter walk away, which also heads into UQ. The house also has parking spaces outside and under the house, helping you keep your car safe.

About the occupants
Hi :) Tomos (29) and Emmett (24) share a bedroom as lovers tend to do. Tom, who has recently graduated UQ , is very sociable and active. Emmett, who is still studying at UQ, is less so. We both love cooking and tend to hog the kitchen so prospective housemates are welcome to kick us out if they wanna make use of the space.
Compatible people
We are a household that appreciates open communication, cleaning schedules, and mutual respect. The ideal housemate won’t mind guests over semi-regularly and will speak up if they want something to change :)
