Coburg Share Accommodation
Isabelle & Ben
Looking in: Thornbury, North Melbourne, Northcote, Moonee Ponds, Kensington, Flemington, Fitzroy, Essendon, Coburg, Brunswick
Hey potential housemates! I'm Isabelle. I'm 25 and am from the Central Coast, NSW. I'm a primary school teacher and have just accepted a position down in Melbourne starting in late January 2019. My boyfriend Ben (also 25) and I are making the move down to Melbourne in the New Year and are looking to move into a place anytime from New Years Day onwards. We are hoping to move into a respectful, fun and somewhat social, existing sharehouse in the one of the Northern Suburbs, preferably either Brunswick, Coburg, Moonee Ponds, Flemington, Essendon, Kensington, Fitzroy, Northcote or North Melb, as these are the shortest commute to work for both of us. Ben is a carpenter and stonemason who restores historic churches and heritage buildings in Sydney and across rural NSW. He's originally from the country, just outside the Blue Mountains, and is currently working as a Rope Access Technician spiderman-ing his way down Sydney's skyscrapers. Neither of us have lived in Melbourne before, and we are both very excited to experience all that the city has to offer! As we both work full time , we're fairly low key during the week. However on weekends we mostly like to go and see live music and a sports game, catch up with friends and family, go out for meals, movies, the occasional weekend away, go camping, indoor rockclimb, and explore the city! Ideally, we would love to move into a place for at least 6 months, sharing with another couple or 2-4 single housemates. We've both lived in various sharehouses before and are both very tidy and respectful/clean in all communal spaces. We are definitely looking to move into a fairly social house where eventually there is more of a living with friends than just housemates kinda vibe! In saying that, we are both also very independent/doing our own thing and appreciate a bit of downtime too. I also promise we are def not the kinda couple that make you feel super third-wheely! We would love to both chat further and pop round to meet you and your housemates and visit the room/place anytime in January! Thanks! :) :) Ben and Izzy
Tuesdaii
Looking in: Pascoe Vale, Parkville, Moonee Ponds, Kensington, Flemington, Fitzroy, Coburg, Brunswick West, Brunswick East, Brunswick
Hey! My name is Tuesdaii. I'm an Adelaide girl moving to Melbourne early next year to study Shoemaking at RMIT in Brunswick. I love yoga, coffee, plants, food & cooking, good conversation and real people. I am in search of a place to call home for the next year or so while I complete my course and work part time - I've lived in share houses for a few years now and would love to find a place that is both relaxed and considerate. I like to think I am a pretty chilled, open and down to earth person. I do my fair share around the house and am always enthusiastic about making houses feel more like home. I am known to come home with a bunch of new plants and to accidentally bake/make excess food to share! I am keen to find some likeminded people to share a home with. Ideally I would love to have a room to come to when I move over at the end of January and would be happy to make a trip to come and see the house and meet the people if it seems like it could be a fit/do a Skype Chat sometime ☺️

Please note: the rent is $150 pp pw for a couple, $300 total. Couples, look no further! This is the place for you! This room has built in robes, a private balcony, own bathroom and own open air study! If you want a place where you can feel like you have your own space and amenities, without the hefty price my place is perfect! My room and bathroom are downstairs so you’ll have tonnes of privacy. I like to cook and hang out in the dining/lounge but my room is also a bit of an oasis for me so we won’t be in each other’s pockets all the time. There’s also a shared balcony off the lounge which gets heaps of sun, as does the shared indoor space. 5 mins walk to the 58 tram, the bus to Sydney Rd goes right past the house or it’s a 20 min walk and it’s half way between Coburg and Strathmore stations giving you access to two train lines.

Katherine and I are friends from Geelong who both work as nurses in the Melbourne area - we are outgoing and friendly people. We respect having alone time, space and love to watch netflix. I (Bridget) love to get outside, go to the gym and walk! Kath loves cooking and could probably quote from any movie you ask of! Move time flexible across January (would both prefer late Jan), boy/girl we don't mind. Pretty keen on a team up - preferably in Essendon, Ascott Vale, Monee Ponds area. Early Bird is rubbish, so if your interested shoot me a DM on Insta @ englandbridget
Todd
Looking in: Pascoe Vale, Footscray, Fitzroy, Essendon, Coburg, Brunswick
I am a 27 year old guy who works as a registered nurse. I'm returning to Melbourne after a trip around the Americas. I'm back on the 13th of December. I am looking for a room of my own in a shared house, either with a pre-existing or new lease. I would like a nice home base where I can wind down after a shift. I've spent a lot of time living in sharehouses in Melbourne and know my way around all the fun and games that comes with living with other folks. I like to think I keep things pretty neat and tidy. I can get involved if there's a garden. I like to cook with other housemates every now and again, if you're into that. I respect the space of my housemates but I'm down to hang out and grab a beer. When I'm not working I like to play video games, brew beer, pack the car and go camping or play music.

Ren
Looking in: Ormond, Oakleigh, Clayton, Burwood, Prahran, Melbourne, Malvern, Kew, Coburg, Caulfield
Hi, I am Ren. My maximum budget is $730 per month including bills (if your house doesn't include bills, it's okay but please keep in mind I can't go over this amount as I am on Newstart). I'm looking for a friendly household with easy access to public transport. I'm social but also quite shy, so I'm happy to do my own thing or hang out with others. I'm going to be studying a Master of Social Work at Monash Caulfield next year. I'm really new to Melbourne, but not new to sharehousing. I lived in Brisbane for nearly 8 years and came here for the weather and a fresh start. In my spare time I enjoy making stuff with yarn, playing video games, or relaxing with Netflix. My favourite shows are BoJack Horseman, Star Trek Next Gen, Star Gate SG1, and the Good Place. I have chronic health conditions, so although I am house trained I would appreciate a house with a more relaxed atmosphere rather than one with a roster. I have asthma, so I need a smoke free home :) Oh, and I'm not vegan or vegetarian, sorry.

It‘s always hard to advertise yourself so I‘ll refer to what friends tend to say about me: funny, organized, compassionate and sociable are probably the adjectives that I heard most often
Zita
Looking in: Thornbury, Preston, Pascoe Vale South, Pascoe Vale, Parkville, Northcote, Kew, Hawthorn, Fitzroy North, Fitzroy, Fairfield, Coburg North, Coburg, Clifton Hill, Carlton North, Carlton, Brunswick West, Brunswick East, Brunswick
Move date: 10th January 2018 - max. from end of Dec. I'm a female photographer, a creative person, have a degree in cultural anthropology and now I'm a mature age student of Latrobe University - Bachelor of Nursing aiming to do preventative health promotion rather than traditional nursing. I'm fairly social and active, but craving my own quiet time between, I prefer a chilled home. I love art, I'm conscious of the environment, politics and social justice. I'm fun loving mix of extrovert and introvert qualities. I have traveled extensively and love cultural diversity. I like to cook healthy, maintain a clean environment, I'm out going on the weekends. I don't drink (other than the odd glass of a craftie), but rather socialize out and about, see an exhibition, be in nature, listen to music or go for a boogie with friends. I'm considerate, respect other people's privacy and property. I'm fine with smokers as long as it's outdoor. I like to find a good balance in spending time with my flat mates, have fun, creating a great vibe, and also to let them to be. I'm happy to go with any furnishing arrangements. If needed, I have fridge, washing machine etc. but they also can stay in my storage. I'm flexible with arrangements. I'm looking forward hearing from you. Cheers, Zita

Coburg, Melbourne
Room in a share house
One room (3 by 3 mt) with built in wardrobe and heating / cooling unit available. Rent is 674 dollars per month (but can increase) and bond is 1 month rent. Bills are average, internet is 15 dollars per person, netflix and spotify family optional. Very well linked with public transports, half way between Sydney road (tram 19) and Nicholson street (tram 1), Close to Moreland train station, plenty of cheap restaurants, a Foodworks superstore, bottle shop and everything you need for emergencies at walking distance. There are gym weights in the garage so it is possible having good light weights and body weight gym sessions. (If you have heavy weight you are welcome to bring them in, there is a barbell too.) There are also gyms nearby. We don't watch TV and we don't own one but if you have one to fit the house it's ok. The same is for the rest of the furnitures, have an idea from the pictures, I am open to improve a bit the place accordingly to everyone's needs.
