Description of the home

Hi!
I rent this super cute oldie Edwardian characterful house (European feel) with a north facing back garden in Newport (near Newport Lakes) and am looking for a compatible housie to share it with me! Will it be you?

The house: fresh and light, has timber floors, plenty of old school charm and character and a really lovely feel. I’ve left some of the old style floral and lace cottage curtains that the landlord had newly made for the house.

Your room: furnished queen size, sunny, light and airy with timber floors. It has its own split system for heating/cooling.

Lounge room: Edwardian fireplace, casement windows and sun room.

Full bath with shower overhead. Separate toilet/laundry.

House has independent split systems for warming/cooling in every room.

Any pets need approval of property owner and I need to be okay with the individual pet.

Walk to cafes, shops, library parks, waterfront. Quick 10 min walk to Newport train station and 20 minutes into CBD. Close to Newport Lakes, beaches and villages at Williamstown and Altona.

Rent: $1053 month ($243 week) includes internet/wifi.

About occupants
Me:
I am a woman 50+, artistic, green-left politics, tertiary educated, English/European cultural background, plant-based, non-smoker.

I’m a friendly, warm, social, respectful, kind, considerate, fun, communicative, genuine, honest and reliable person and am looking to share with a person who is also.

I am looking for a social person and someone who likes a real home environment.

I enjoy sharing and have lots of house share experience. I am genuinely interested in others and their interests. Appreciate both social and quiet times.

I have a background in the arts, dance, music, social work and human rights activism and enjoy meeting people from different cultural backgrounds. I have broad interest in ideas, music, dance, culture, film, nature, animals, the environment and world affairs.

I have an interest in health, nutrition, natural and preventative medicine, TCM and acupuncture.

Up for cuppas and chats. I generally make my own food. Saying that, on occasion happy to share a meal. Enjoy watching shows and movies together if that is mutual. Prefer some engagement rather than being like ships in the night.

Naturally more of a night owl than a rooster person. I respect other people’s schedules, activity, quiet, rest and sleep needs - as I would wish people to equally respect mine. Use headphones to be considerate and am flexible with functioning and sharing space.

I am a responsible, tidy, clean, considerate, relaxed, friendly housie and need someone similar who is also.

Covid: I’m vaxed

Cleaning products: eco non-toxic products in the house.

Compatible people
