Other information
I've recently given the house a fresh makeover with new timber flooring, timber stairs and glass balustrade, new bathroom with a skylight in it and high-end built-in wardrobes as well as new furniture throughout, creating a stylish and comfortable living space. Your room is quite spacious (queen sized bed fits nicely) with lots of sun light (facing North) and a view in the garden. You would be sharing the top floor bathroom with me (Pavel) and I am happy to share the mini-office in the corridor, though only on the days I am usually in the office, which is typically Tuesdays, Wednesdays and sometimes Thursdays, and on the weekends.

Home Description

Description of the home

Welcome to our charming, newly renovated two-story home nestled in the heart of the Balmain peninsula! We're two young professionals in our 30s looking for a like-minded housemate to join our friendly household.

Our home boasts a modern open-plan layout on the ground floor, perfect for socialising and relaxing. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into the living room, which opens up to a cozy and private backyard – ideal for summer barbecues and morning coffees. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms sharing a well-appointed bathroom, offering a great balance of privacy. You would be sharing the 1st floor with me only (Pavel), which includes the renovated bathroom and mini-office in the corridor, although I can share that office desk only on the days I am usually in the office, which is typically Tuesdays, Wednesdays and sometimes Thursdays, and on the weekends.

We've recently given the place a fresh makeover with new timber flooring, timber stairs and glass balustrade, new bathroom with a skylight in it and high-end built-in wardrobes in every room, including the under stairs storage and living room, as well as new furniture throughout, creating a stylish and comfortable living space. On-street parking is available for those with vehicles, and the vibrant Rozelle /Balmain neighborhood is right at your doorstep, with an amazing cafe and a bakery and brewery less than 5 minutes away and many Balmain pubs, restaurants and parks just a short stroll away. Bus station is only 2 minutes away by walk.

In terms of utilities, we’ve pretty much everything: High-speed internet (included in the bills), air conditioning, outdoors seating, BBQ, high quality combo washing machine & dryer, dish washer, spacious fridge, all the kitchen ware you’ll ever need and lots of storage room with new built-in wardrobes, high end TV and surround sound system for cinema-like experience and all sorts of TV subscriptions (on the house).

Lastly, the house comes alive with the playful energy of my two English Staffordshire Bull Terrier girls (sisters - see photos in the library). Don't worry, they're incredibly friendly, calm and well-trained – so more like furry roommates than pets! They're always up for a cuddle or a game, adding to the warm and welcoming atmosphere of our home. And if you've got your own furry friend, we're of the mindset that the more the merrier! Again, my girls are heaps friendly (incl. dogs) and happy to share their barney bed with new friends.

About the occupants
We’re two young professionals in our 30s [Pavel and Jack], navigating the busy world of finance and public service. Our schedules can get hectic, but we cherish the calm and quiet vibe of our home. When we do get together, we love to unwind by watching movies, grabbing a drink, or firing up the BBQ for a relaxed evening. We’re also big fans of sports and enjoy exercising together (have known each other for 10 years now), although on most weekends you might often find me out and about with my staffie girls- you're welcome to join me.

While we rarely have our friends over due to our busy schedules, we’re both easy-going and enjoy meeting new people, so if you want to have friends over, feel free! We’re always up for a good chat or a fun night out. Also, we both ride sports bikes, so if you’re into that, let’s hit the road together on a sunny day!

And as mentioned previously, I have two English Staffordshire Bull Terrier sisters who are the true stars of the house. They’re sweethearts—super friendly, calm, incredibly well-trained and don't really make any mess or shed fur. They love walks and playtime, so if you’re an animal lover, you’ll fit right in! But don’t worry; they’re well taken care of, so if you’re not a pet person, you can still enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

If you’re looking for a friendly, welcoming home with a relaxed vibe, we’d love to hear from you!

We're looking for a friendly, fun, easy going, respectful housemate with a positive attitude to life. Our house is super chill, always clean (on the occasions we have someone over, we always get commended on the cleanliness despite the fact that I (Pavel) have two dogs). Jack and I have known each other for 10 years now, which makes our co-living super easy so if you're after a drama-free home and don't mind doing your bit to keep the house clean and tidy, then we're on the same page. We're both pretty busy so the house can be quite sometimes but on the less busy days we're always keen to hangout and have a few drinks, watch movies or fire up the BBQ. On the weekends, we love to spend time outside as we're both quite active, which can include training in the gym, riding our sports bikes or hangout with the doggos at the beach or in the park. If it's a busy period for both of us, we also don't have a problem with respecting each other's space and privacy. While we don't have have our friends over too often, we have no problem with having your friends over...as the saying goes - e mi casa es su casa!
Description of pets
I have two English Staffordshire Bull Terrier sisters, Zahlie (6 years) and Aahraya (8 years), who are the true stars of the house. They’re sweethearts—super friendly, calm, incredibly well-trained and don't really make any mess or shed fur. They love walks and playtime, so if you’re an animal lover, you’ll fit right in! But don’t worry; they’re well taken care of, so if you’re not a pet person, you can still enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. I appreciate you may have concerns over cleanliness or the dogs causing issues, but rest assured I spend lots of time with them, look after them and always go out my way to clean the house after them, although they don't really make much mess at all.
