We're looking for a third housemate for our 3bdrm sharehouse in Seddon. Sorry folks, we can't accommodate couples or any more pets.
* Located on a quiet street close to Victoria Street / Middle Footscray station and a short walk to Footscray and Seddon stations - only 15 mins to the city via train!
* Large street-facing room that captures all of the afternoon sunshine. Large enough for a king-sized bed, desk, and the other usual bedroom furniture. Wardrobe provided. (If you're in need of a bed, our outgoing housemate is willing to sell his QS Sealy for $150.)
* Bathroom includes rainfall shower with on-demand hot water system. No more unexpected cold showers!
* The garden features fruiting plum and orange trees, and an established veggie garden that you are welcome to make your own.
* Subscriptions to Netflix, Stan / Stan Sports, Prime Video and Disney+ paid for by one of your housemates.
* Speedy and reliable FTTP internet connection.
* Off-street parking for those with a car.
You'd be sharing with Toni (me - NB AFAB, queer, ND, works full-time in education, and spends most of her free time reading, watching tv, cuddling with her 🐕 or sleeping) and Ewan (M, gay, selectively employed, appreciates coffee, classical music, and playing Ingress). We're both 40+, non-smokers, drug-free and politically very left-aligned.
Rent is $1000pcm, not including
*****
Stand alone house on a quiet street in Seddon, just a minute's walk from Victoria Street so nice and close to a grocery store (Happy Apple), Foodworks, AusPost, bakeries, cafes, pubs / bars, restaurants, and a heap of cute shops.
Walk to Yarraville or to Footscray, or catch any of the local public transport options (we're a five minute walk to Middle Footscray Station, and within walking distance to Footscray / Seddon / West Footscray Stations. The 223 bus connecting Yarraville and Highpoint is a couple of minutes from us, too).
The house is fully furnished, we have a little space if you have things of your own to contribute. The tv (but not the tv unit) is leaving with our outgoing housemate, so if you have a tv that you don't want to keep in your room we can absolutely accommodate that in the living room, too.
Bonus points: We have a fruiting orange tree and plum tree in our backyard, along with a heap of freshly grown veggies.
Sorry folks, our home can't accommodate couples or any more pets.

Ewan (he/him), older than Toni. Stage musician. Loves gaming, coffee and chatting.
