$300/week•57 year old woman

Quiet, tidy professional seeking calm home + empty lock-up 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. Tenancy track record (houses mainly) • Consistently on‑time rent; zero arrears and positive exit reports. • House rentals predominantly, with shared and sole tenancy experience. • Respect for quiet enjoyment, neighbours, and routine inspections. • Careful with gardens and common areas; I leave homes clean and orderly. 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.

Hey I'm Isaiah, I work just about full-time in OSHC (outside school hours care) and I study intermittently on the side. I'm a fairly active and outdoorsy person, and I go cycling or bouldering or train parkour pretty much every day. When I'm at home I'm quite quiet, generally reading or doing arts and crafts in my room. I've lived in Canberra sharehouses for about four years now.

I'm a 31 year old who works full time and in my spare time enjoys reading, gardening, listening to podcasts, and exercising. When I'm not doing my own thing, I like to hang out with my friends. I'm happy to have a good yarn with my housemates, or chat with neighbours while out gardening. I like to live in a clean, respectful, and minimal fuss household. I'm pretty budget-conscious about my lifestyle. But, I always try to make my house welcoming and safe for my housemates and guests.

Hello future flatmate, I hate to say this but I am close to 30 far from 20 😭 (27, to be precise). I am originally from India, moved to Canberra in early 2020 (that's right just before COVID hit). Did my masters at ANU, and graduated in 2022, working in an association since then. Lived in student accommodation for 2 years and then 3 years in shared house. So I am not new to shared house experience. I am pretty chill guy, who keeps the place clean and tidy. Majority of my week day is filled with work. I am a bit lazy to do some workout so I try and include activities into my day to day activities like going to office on pushy, recently started doing some rowing in lake Burley Griffin.
