Home Description

Description of the home

PLEASE NOTE: THIS MASTER BEDROOM, FULLY FURNISHED, LINEN PROVIDED IS ONLY AVAILABLE FROM NOVEMBER 25 2023 until JANUARY 2 2024 while our housemates are away.

This lovely Nedlands cottage is situated near the local hospitals and UWA - walking distance to shops, cafes, banks, supermarkets and public transport. It is extremely quiet, considering how close we are to Stirling Highway and Hampden Road. A little oasis.

The garden is maintained by Brenda who is a part-time secretary and ex community support worker. We have three bedrooms, the front room which is available soon, is the master bedroom at the front of the house facing west and looking out on to a lovely garden with bird bath. We enjoy a very happy little household, sharing the occasional meal/wine/coffee/cake and get on extremely well.

The house has 3 bedrooms, large fully equipped kitchen and dining area looking out on to the back garden and barbeque/outdoor living area with very large table and chairs for those summertime nights or outdoor study time. A small north-facing room next to the kitchen has a Samsung smart 65"TV and we love playing music, YouTube, catch-up TV and movies.

Brenda is also very interested in music and is a member of Perth Broadway Chorus - attending festivals in various parts of the country for a long time. Cam is The Badpiper, lover of music and Comedy.......Musical people and instruments very welcome.

About the occupants
Brenda is the lease holder of this property which is signed up until April 2024 with the possibility of continuing after that date. I am a secretary working part time for a podiatrist in Claremont and ex Senior Community Support Worker, caring for the elderly in their own homes. I also sing with Perth Broadway Chorus and attend music festivals on a regular basis. I DO ALL THE GARDENING AND CLEANING OF ALL THE COMMON AREAS OF THE HOUSE. I feel this is the most attractive feature of the household as it leaves you to concentrate on your own life and there are no arguments about whose turn it is to vacuum etc etc.

I enjoy cooking and share the occasional meal with housemates and partners. Carrot cake.....well .....lots of different kinds of cakes actually..........have proven to be the MOST popular factor in our household!!!

It goes without saying really that I am a people person as I work with people every day. I enjoy chatting, sharing a glass of wine or cup of tea/coffee after work but also like my quiet times after a busy day. I am a lark and therefore go to bed early and get up at 5.30 to be at work at 7.00

Cam is a musician staying temporarily until he can travel again.
Compatible people
Important personal qualities would be a sense of humour, respect, love of nature (AND DOGS) Music and a happy disposition. Moodiness would not be a good thing. Life is too short. Someone with an easy attitude regarding washing up ( Brenda leaves the dishes until the morning as she is not a night time person.....we like to be relaxed ......so you probably need NOT to be a neat freak.....We would really like to find a like-minded person/people who would enjoy our company and complete a happy house family.
