Please don't message me unless you at least read to the storage part. If you message me first, I expect you to understand my requirement for some storage space (not a closet in the bedroom).

Current accom
My current arrangement has become too much of a stretch for my budget, I need somewhere cheaper and hoping to find a shorter commute to the city (currently takes me ~40 mins from Clifton Hill). I am comfortable where I am until I find the right place, and I need to give 4 week notice here.

Budget
$250-350/week inc bills is my rough budget. I am currently paying $390/week + bills with no internet

Location/Work
I work full time in the city as a data scientist and WFH 1-2 days per week, so I need access to, or space for a desk. Ideal suburbs are inner North (Fitzroy, Collingwood, Preston), inner East (Richmond, Hawthorne, Kew), and inner West (Footscray, Yarraville). I value proximity to train or bus transport.

Storage
I will need some storage outside the bedroom, i.e. shed, garage, big under stairs closet, some space to put big shelves - I have multiple large paragliding bags, camping gear, ski/snowboard gear, etc.

Furnishings/Common areas
I have a car (need on-street unrestricted parking as minimum), dont have furnishings and would prefer not to aqcuiring any but will consider acquiring bedroom furniture for the right place, I need a desk in my room or a study for WFH. I like to cook so kitchen/fridge space is important. I would love to have access to a bath tub!

Vibe
I'm looking for like-minded, similar aged housemates who are social and outdoorsy. Prefer max 3 housemates, unless there is a strong culture fit, and not somewhere where the landlord manages tenants, unless they live in. I'm a very active climber with Urban Climb membership and will be going for climbing, paragliding and skiing trips on weekends, sharing meals and eating out during the week.

Me
I am an avid paragliders with license to fly tandems and compete nationally. I'm an Aussie who grew up in QLD and follows the rugby league, used to work as a mech engineer but pivoting into data science. I am very easy going, respectful, clean/tidy, financially dependable, and avoid conflict and drama.

Please message me if you have something that sounds appropriate, I have a good response rate ;)
