Home Description

Description of the home

Room available NOW in my airy light-filled, plant-filled abode of the past 4 years, affectionately known as 'The Ducknest' AKA 'El Palacio de Chill'. It's located by the river in the gorgeous, convenient suburb of Meadowbank.

Fellow women strongly preferred. Ideal for students and professionals who like a quiet and tranquil home environment.

=================
ABOUT THE APARTMENT
=================

It’s a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment, so you’ll be sharing with just one other person: me!

10th floor balcony with sweeping views over the Parramatta River and big, big sky.

My collection of plants, books and boardgames also make this apartment what it is, and you’re invited to take part in all the joys and benefits they bring.

ABOUT THE LOCATION
================

Amazing location, and so convenient! It’s just 5 mins’ walk to both the Meadowbank train station and Meadowbank ferry wharf. The train to Central Station takes only 25 mins, while the ferry to Circular Quay is a scenic, serene 43-minute journey.

It’s also part of the Shepherd’s Bay complex, which is a lovely landscaped oasis with cafes, Asian grocers, Post Office, supermarket, chemist, gym, GP, etc. just downstairs.

Lots of lovely parks and green space nearby! Great walking and cycling paths along the river. Fortnightly local markets. Rhodes and Wentworth Point are within walking distance too, just across the other side of the river.

ABOUT ME
========

I’m a 44-year old trans woman, recently divorced and starting life anew. I’m passionate about connecting with nature through bushwalking, kayaking, wild swimming, etc. I also love books and boardgames. In essence, I lead a quiet life with a small but very special circle of friends who I love deeply. People describe me as warm and sociable, but I’m really an introvert at heart and greatly value my solo downtime.

ABOUT YOU
=========

Fellow women and queer folks are strongly encouraged to reach out! Ideally, you would value a tranquil home life like I do. We would get along well as friends, but also respect each other's need for space and privacy. You would also be an open-minded and open-hearted individual, fully accepting of queer and trans people. Lastly, you would be a great communicator and willing to work through house matters together with me as a team.
