Ashmore Street, Brunswick, Melbourne

We have ensured that this is a warm friendly home, not just a share house. We respect each others privacy but will come together sometimes to watch a movie, chat or have housemate party about once a month. I have a cat named Igor who is very shy but friendly and mischievous, and of course will love you if you give him dinner or a snack.

The house is 2 a minute walk to Lygon Street and about 7 minutes to Sydney Road, so we have cafes, shops, supermarkets and public transport right at our door. Yet it is still a quiet leafy street.

There is a lovely courtyard out back with a portable bbq and table & chairs. We also have a dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. The toilet is separate to the bathroom, and the bathroom also has a bath.

The bills are separate to the rent, and there is a $3 kitty for household items like toilet paper and cleaning supplies for housework, which gets delivered with my fortnightly groceries. There is a cleaning roster otherwise we just clean up after ourselves.
