Home Description

Description of the home

10y.o old two-storey townhouse in the 'Divercity' complex at Waterloo. Floorboards throughout, with your own (main) bathroom, also a Powder room downstairs. Fully furnished (except bedroom). Apartment is on the ground floor so it has its own entrances - no lifts! Tandem carparks are about 20m from apartment on the same level. There's also lock-up bike storage. Generally nice and quiet surrounds, a little less so in warmer months, but as in all apartments, people entertain, but on the whole, it's surprisingly quiet.

QE Foodstore, cafe, gym, and bottle shop in the complex. Walking distance to East Village / cafes / buses / trains / city and surrounds.

About the occupants
Hi, Mark here. I'm a Client Services Director for a Marketing company based in Surry Hills. I WFH full time and use the third (downstairs) bedroom as my office, so am out of the way. Generally work 8.30am - 5pm, but sometimes have calls with clients before / after hours depending on where in the world they are.

At weekends I catch up on TV, with friends for a meal / movie / walk / theatre etc. Not averse to the occasional big night, but it's not a priority these days :-) Generally pretty independent, but it's good to have some interaction with my housemate, but I also recognise people like their space, and that's important.

My partner, Zag, is a Remedial Massage Therapist working at Woolloomooloo and the CBD. He works between 4 - 6 days a week, plus 1 day studying offsite. We're both fully vaccinated (and hopefully you are too).

We do our own meal prep but it's nice to share a meal from time-to-time. We're neat / tidy around the house and the same in a housemate is an absolute must. TV-wise, I enjoy primarily ABC / SBS / Fox History, Lifestyle, Docos / AppleTV / Netflix....oh and Gogglebox lol! Am interested in politics (left-leaning), travel, etc per previously outlined.
Compatible people
Ideally, you're pretty easy-going, and looking for long term stability in a place to call home. You enjoy a generally quiet house, are independent, but at the same time sociable. Neat / tidy / clean and generally respects the home (I'm the owner). Bills paid on time. If you have nothing other than your bathroom and bedroom stuff, that's perfect. I have everything else.

Someone happy to catch up from time to time for a meal / drink / night out / TV, and can carry on a conversation. Common sense is a plus :-)

Tidy around the house and respects it. Can communicate, is responsible, and helps out with cleaning etc. It's a clean and easy place to live in.
