Home Description

Description of the home

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE ROOM WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE FOR 10 WEEKS.

Warm and sunny, 2 bedroom townhouse in East Melbourne. High standard of furniture and interior design. External views outlook towards city and North. Lush (sun drenched) communal living and outdoors areas, timber floors. I like plants, so a lot of greenery inside.

This place has a great feel to it. The pics really don't do it justice. I would suggest coming over for a tea or wine/beer etc... to have a chat and see why I rate it so highly.

This place is fully furnished. The bedroom is not, but i do have a basic double bed and some furniture. The upstairs bathroom is situated between both rooms. But can work easily as there is powder room downstairs too.

My room is a mezzanine, I have thick curtains for privacy, but there is a limit to the amount of noise that can occur between midnight and 6am weekdays. Also, cooking is obviously fine, but the place would not really suit someone who cooks a lot of strong smelling dishes like curries or fried food on a regular basis.

Very short walk to Collingwood, Fitzroy, Richmond, Abbotsford and direct tram to CBD and SouthBank, Close to MCG, Melbourne Parks and River. Very accessible to South Yarra/Prahan via bus.

Bills and expenses

Electricity is about $150 each per month during winter. No water bills. Unlimited NBN is $35 pcm. I'd like to get a cleaner in per fortnight which will be approx $50 each, but we can start off without if you feel you are a decent cleaner. Will need to sort out visitor parking permit, but there is OSP.

About the occupants
Hey, I'm Tim I'm 42. I am an architect. I like to have a clean and happy house. I am not OCD about clean etc, but I am looking for someone who will see that this place works well with another clean, considerate professional. I like to have a few wines or beer etc and cook and hang. I eat out just as much. I gym in the afternoons or evenings. I like to live in a calm, clean, respectful and friendly home. I'm pretty relaxed about most things, but this place wouldn't suit someone who wants to live like a student or party-animal.
Compatible people
Considerate. Professional or with a steady income preferred. Sociable. Not too loud or messy. Decent people without pretense and bullshit. :) I love art, culture, intelligent conversation, drinks at home- drinks out, gym, running, camping, Reading, travelling, scary movie night with ice-cream and wine, and sun baking in the courtyard with music and beer in summer.
Description of pets
I have cat named Winston. He's pretty chilled and friendly.
