Home Description

Description of the home

The house is a two story on a quiet street in Blackburn, about 10 minutes walk from the train station and 2 minutes walk from the 901 bus stop. There are plenty of cafes close by and Blackburn North Shopping mall is roughly a 10 minute walk, as well as Blackburn Lake.

Currently, the house is occupied by myself, my pupperino and Laura, who occupies one of the bedrooms upstairs. My bedroom is located downstairs, as well as my home gym which I'm happy to be used when I'm not training (small space).

The room currently listed is upstairs, with bathroom facilities (shower, bath and toilet areas) that will be shared with Laura. The kitchen, dining room and loungeroom are all located upstairs and the laundry is downstairs.

I've just bought a robo vacuum / mop so cleaning is a breeze 😉

The house has a massive backyard, which currently includes vegies gardens and lawn space to spare! It is a very lovely space and I am happy for others to get their green thumb on if they want to!

About the occupants
Hi! I'm Siobhan, I'm a 25 year old full time worker, currently I work at the office with 1 day a week at home. I also study part time online.
I love having a chat and a laugh, but I also love my alone time!
I am a tidy person and like to live in a clean space, so I will expect the same from the people I am living with although I'm not a neat freak.

My parents are moving/moved (covid ugh) to the country however they have a room downstairs which they will use when they come back for work/meetings. This won't affect lifestyle etc as they are chill.
Compatible people
I think the below are necessary for a roommate:
Clean/tidy.
Friendly.
Likes dogs.
Pays rent on time.
Laid back/easy to get along with.
Happy to have a chat / hang out every now and then.
Description of pets
I have one three year old puppy (Kaylee, pictured in photos), she is very friendly although a little nervous with new people so she can take some time to warm up, but once she does watch out for kisses!

She is a mixture of energetic and lazy, happy to lay around in the sun and equally happy to have the ball thrown and a play. Kaylee is generally inside with me when I am home, and is generally outside when I am out.
