Share accommodation in Canberra

$300/week•57 year old woman

Quiet, tidy professional seeking calm home + double garage for storage. About me Hi, I’m Samantha (Sam) — a considerate, community-minded professional working in the community services sector. I’m friendly, reliable and drama-free; I value a peaceful home where everyone cleans up after themselves and respects privacy. I’m a non-smoker, neat, and low-maintenance. Outside work I enjoy painting, gentle gardening, cooking simple meals, and the occasional gallery visit or swim. Happy to chat over a cuppa, equally comfortable doing my own thing. Routine & lifestyle Work: Part-time; mostly days, study as well. Weeknights: Quiet — meal, shower, unwind, earlyish night. Weekends: Errands, visit to the Farmers Market, art, friends, tending to my house plants, gardening, or a movie at home. Guests: rare and considerate; mindful of house rules Smoking/vaping: No, don't smoke Pets: none (love them; happy with well-behaved pets) What I’m like to live with Tidy and respectful: dishes done, benches wiped, shared spaces left as found, love a roster. Communicative: quick chats to keep things smooth, love to cook. Reliable: bills on time, house tasks shared fairly. Noise: very mindful, especially late evening/early morning. What I’m looking for; A calm, clean household with respectful housemates (not a party house, no drugs) Non-smoking; good ventilation and quiet after 10 pm Clear shared standards (bin night, basic cleaning rotation) Friendly but independent housemates Practical details Move date: any time from 10th of October Budget: ~$290-$300/week Preferred areas: Inner North (Ainslie, Dickson, Turner, Melba, Kaleen, ect) and Inner South (Kingston, Griffith, Narrabundah, Lyons, etc). Open to areas around Gungahlin if a good fit; Parking/transport: need a double garage (car + secure storage for work/art gear). Furnishings: seeking an unfurnished room, I have my own furniture and plants. Length of stay: 12 months+ Bonus / Buddy-up/ TEAM UP option. Happy to create a new share house with the right people. Now is a good time, as all of the students will be winding up their year. Open to teaming up to rent a whole place. I can bring a good amount of essential household items (kitchenware, basics, some furniture). I don’t have a microwave or a washing machine. Happy to compare lists and split costs fairly. Deal-breakers (to save everyone time) Indoor smoking or drug use Heavy late-night noise in shared areas Poor cleanliness in kitchen/bathroom Unannounced house inspections or disregard for privacy.
