Home Description

Description of the home

My home is a sunny, 3-bedroom unit in Preston. This is a unique opportunity because I am provided funding through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) to enable me to live independently in the community. This means I receive funding to subsidise the rent of my housemate in return for a level of informal support (primarily companionship and some reminders). I have a cleaner to support me to keep up my side of the household responsibilities. During the week, I have support workers for a few hours to assist me with various aspects of my life such as shopping but I primarily move through the world independently.

If you are interested in living with me, please send Michaela (who is helping me find a home) a message.

About the occupants
Hi, I’m Tim. I’m a northside local with a dry wit and penchant for telling bad jokes. I’m passionate about 80’s Australian indie music, local history, storytelling, and mental health advocacy. Coffee is the big love of my life and throughout Winter I can be found indulging in Melbourne’s coffee culture. In the warmer months, I love getting out on my electric bike, enjoying the local green spaces or heading to the pub for a beer and some live tunes.
Compatible people
I’m looking for someone friendly who enjoys the social aspect of living with others but also respects boundaries and personal space. My ideal housemate is someone who is relaxed, enjoys a yarn and sharing some meals together.
