Home Description

Description of the home

3 BDR unit which has just been completely renovated! I have just finished renovating the house completely- new appliances, bathrooms, painting, cabinetry- you name it! I live here and take a lot of pride in my home, particularly now it’s so beautiful and new. It’s fully furnished apart from the third bedroom.

Two bathrooms, with an ensuite in my rooom so you basically get a private bathroom!

As it’s all under renovation, I don’t have many photos but have put current photos up to give an idea of where it’s up to. It’s scheduled to finish next week, when I will move in and settle- following which it’ll be available for a flatmate .

About the occupants
Hi! I’m Claire, 30 year old lawyer working in the city in commercial environmental law. I work full time (about 3 days in the city and 2 WFH) and work very long hours. I take a lot of pride in my home and like to be a bit of a haven.
I love spending time with my dog Nala (note, if you don’t love dogs, this is probably not the house for you as she loves everyone and will want to spend time with you!) and going for long walks with her.
I love having a good chat with my housemate/s (can provide a reference from previous housemate, we became great friends!) but deeply value my personal time. I’m very respectful of people’s views and love a good discussion where I can understand other viewpoints! I’m a big traveller and have lived and studied in quite a few places and love sharing travel stories.
I have basically a fully functioning house (excluding your bedroom furniture) and lots of kitchen things as I love to cook so ideally would like someone who doesn’t have a whole kitchen worth of things! I’m happy to share my things as long as everyone is respectful.

Sorry no couples or cats (allergies!) My partner stays over a couple of nights a week max.
Compatible people
Communication! I think 99% of problems can be averted by keeping the lines open and everyone on the same page. I’m quite clean and hate clutter - at this age and stage I’d be hopeful to fall into a nice and equal rhythm of cleaning and sharing responsibility but equally happy to participate in a roster if needed.
Also, given I work long hours, hoping for someone understanding of that, and ideally someone who loves dogs and will like having a large dog around (see below!)
Description of pets
Nala is a 5 year old rough collie (a Lassie dog!) she’s a beautiful dog who LOVES attention and just being close to her housemates. She is very gentle and well socialised with both dogs and humans. She is very well trained and super obedient otherwise. Also- she does shed but I have a heavy duty vacuum and a robo vac to help with this. It goes without saying all bills and responsibilities are mine when it comes to Nala but if you wanted to take her for walks that’s also fine!
