Home Description

Description of the home

- Ground floor: laundry, covered carport (for your car) with a cute little L shape private garden (green thumbs welcome! 🍀🪴🤞🏻) with a shed.
- 1st floor: open living / dining room & kitchen
- 2nd floor (2 bedrooms / 1x bathroom)
Fly screens, lots of windows & nice floorboards everywhere.

Located mere minutes from the Tram 57, 12min walk from Ascot Vale station, 15min from Newmarket Station = about 30 min total commute to the city, shorter if you ride 🚴🏻‍♀️😉

Rent: $220 weekly excluding bills - 5x weeks bond. Bills would be split evenly amongst the 2 of us (unless you like using the heater or A/C a fair bit - I don’t).

Move in date flexible: finding the right fit is what matters.

Close by there is a gym, the awesome Kynd Vegan Butcher, Mr Nice Guys bakeshop (best cinnamon rolls), great bakery, an awesome Books & Shed Library, a lovely Sunday Market etc and a nice community.

Everything is electric. I don’t consume much (rarely have I ever turned on the heater and never the A/C) so my electricity bills are $45 max monthly. Internet $70 monthly for unlimited NBN, small water bills.

About the occupants
My name is Elia, 39, mostly Plant Based, active, into personal growth, loves to laugh, have meaningful exchanges. I also very much need my daily alone quiet time.

I bike ride everywhere, shop at markets or low waste bulk stores, into Nature, Conservation, Yoga, Pilates, hiking, dancing, healthy food, workshops, DIY... I speak English, French & Spanish.

In this house we compost, avoid using nasties (I DIY cleaning products or refill my containers with tox free biodegradable ones), no single use (plastic, styrofoam in particular) whenever possible etc.
Compatible people
Someone mature, with a strong EQ, non smoker, respectful, clean & tidy, willing to make efforts to reduce their waste/impact on the planet.

I am a light sleeper & get headaches when it gets too noisy so I need someone who’ll be ok with that and is pro choice.

No end date but I’d like to commit to 6x months max to begin with.
