Description of the home

**PET FRIENDLY**

A beautiful home - recently renovated last year with brand new floors, kitchen and bathroom. Set on a super quiet, tree-lined street which is just a few minutes walk around the corner to Bread and Circus, Dan Murphy's, Sydney Park, The Grounds and plenty of other trendy cafes and brunch spots that Alexandria has to offer.

Just a 6 min walk to Erskineville station and 10 minute stroll to Newtown’s infamous King Street, not to mention a bus stop with buses directly to the CBD and Marrickville just 50m from your doorstep.

This house has a private driveway with covered car space available for your exclusive use, not to mention lots of unmetered street parking. Light and bright with timber floorboards throughout, open and breezy in summer yet warm and cosy in winter!

We have a huge outdoor area in the back, fully fenced and perfect for bbqs/entertaining plus a large shed for additional storage. Kitchen has all new appliances, outdoor private laundry and one HUGE bathroom with bath tub which is shared. Your bedroom has high ceilings and brand new, built-ins with tonnes of wardrobe space.

I pretty much have everything covered in terms of furniture, all you would need is your bedroom stuff, there is also room for you to add some pieces to make the house your own as well.

Neighbours are all lovely and chill, mainly young families and couples all around us. There's even a communal area halfway down the street where everyone gathers on summer evenings and weekends and your new local, The Park View Hotel, does a great Schnitzel night every Wednesday :) Just a really great place to live and so central to everything.

About the occupants
You will be sharing this great house with just one other person, me, and a 12 month old bull Arab X Great Dane cross named Birdy, so applicants must be a fan of dogs, there is plenty of room if you also have a pet of your own!

Hey there, my name is Alyy, I'm a 30 yr old hairdresser/makeup artist by trade but I also have a corporate 9-5 as an Education Manager which I also love. Working two jobs means I'm super busy and often do long hours through the week.

I'm extremely bubbly and outgoing (13 years of hairdressing means I can talk under water) and while I'm a bit of a social butterfly, I've mostly hung up my partying shoes and much prefer spending my weekends either working out, catching up with friends or binge watching tv shows.

I'm a great housemate mainly because I'm a home owner myself so I'm very house proud, I'm not OCD about tidiness but I see the house as a sanctuary, not a dumping ground and there is nothing worse than having to constantly be cleaning up after people.

I'm looking for housemates that are keen to catch up over a glass of wine, some dinner and some good music, are happy to socialise but have their own lives at the same time.

This is beginning to sound like a dating profile so I'll leave it there. Hope to hear from some cool people!

Description of pets
Birdy is one serious snuggle bug, guaranteed to cheer you up even after the shittiest day! She is super sweet and friendly, fully house trained and not a destroyer of anything so your things are safe. She spends most of her day outside dozing in the sun and when inside is either having a snooze on the lounge or in my bedroom watching TV (yes that's right, Birdy is a massive TV fan and will watch it for hours)
