$250/week•26 year old female

Hiya! I'm a friendly, easy-going 26 year old from Sydney. After working in child mental health research in London and Amsterdam the last 3 years, I will be relocating to Melbourne to start my Clinical Psychology Doctorate at MONASH University. I’m quite outgoing and bubbly, so am always down to have a laugh over a few bevs! I'd love a friendly flat/house share that feels more like a home than just a place to live :) I am passionate about mental health, equal opportunities and the environment. Apart from cooking I also have interests in music, art and design (typical I know haha). I’ve been told that I’m very considerate and clean, so you can trust that I will always clean up after myself and respect the space as if it were my own. I also value kind, constructive and open communication, so won't ever leave passive aggressive messages or notes :) Accommodation: Ideally, I'm looking for a clean, bright room with a window that allows in plenty of natural light and fresh air. It would also be great to have a bathroom that is only shared with a maximum of 2 other people. Flatmates: I love nothing more than to unwind after a long day with some vino and netflix, and would love a warm and social, yet relaxed household where flatmates can eat and have fun together, but also enjoy downtime apart. Last but not least, I'm an absolute sucker for animals so pets are a bonus for me !

Hi potential housemate(s), This is Dan, I'm in my late 20s and currently working full time for an accounting firm. Before Covid, I enjoy going swimming or hanging out with friends on weekends. I tend to keep the house quiet, but more than happy for a chat at the end of the day with my housemates over dinner or watching a TV show together. I also like boardgames and travelling, so count me in for a board game night or a road trip on weekends :). I'm respectful of other people's privacy and would expect the same from them. I'm looking to share a place with someone sociable, LGBTIQ friendly🏳️‍🌈, and down-to-earth. Would love to be a friend to my housemates, and hang out occasionally. I have a hatchback with me, so I would highly appreciate a car space or at least an option for car parking. A place near train line Hurstbridge and Mernda, or tram line 48 and 75 would be ideal as they would take me straight to work. My priority would be teaming up with someone to rent a place together. Should you need more information from me or should you think we match, please send me a message. Thank you for reading, have a nice day :). Kind regards, Dan

I'm a queer nerd (they/them) who works admin full time in Melbourne CBD, though I've been working from home for most of 2020 due to the pandemic. In my spare time I enjoy reading fantasy novels and comics, listening to music, playing computer and video games, and writing fiction. I'm intersectional, queer-friendly and trans-friendly. I'm not sure what other info you'd like to know up-front, but am happy to answer any questions that you might have! My current lease ends in mid-February, so I'm looking to move in with some friendly, interesting people by then. I enjoy learning about people and swapping stories, but am also great at hanging out in the same space with no pressure to have a conversation. I need to live in a clean and well-maintained environment, preferably with air conditioning, and come with my own toolbox. I am easygoing, always up to discuss issues, and very reliable with bills. Unfurnished private rooms are a must, as I have a desk and a couple of bookshelves to fit into my space. (I also have a washing machine available if needed!) A separate bath/shower is important due to my dodgy knees, but I'm totally happy to share bathrooms. Proximity to trains and/or trams is vital, as I don't drive. I've spent four years with my current housemate across multiple properties, and I'd love to move in with another conscientious and considerate housemate(s) for the long-term. If you think that's something you'd also be interested in, please send me a message!

Hey future housemate(s), My name's Patricia and I'm looking to team-up or move in around early-mid January. I am a 22 year old uni Melb student working hospo part-time and looking to teamup or join an, easygoing and (preferably) vegetarian/vegan or eco-conscious household. I have previous house-sharing experience and have never been late on rent and bills. I really value having a clean and comfortable house so I'd love to live with someone/people that are tidy and enjoy having a well-kept house. I'm pretty easygoing and wouldn't mind if you have people over or if you prefer your privacy, that's cool too. As long as we have open communication then it's all chill with me. Ideally the house is close to the city or near public transport. I am quite sociable and would love to share a space with people I can really get along well with. I love working in the garden and whipping up yummy vegetarian food. When I'm not stressing over uni or working at my hospo gig you'll catch me going on beach drives, hikes or visiting cute markets and a few weeks out of the year I go overseas to hunt for yummy tea (that means some tea freebies for you)! Chuck me a message if you want to link up and find a house, or if you already have a place and you think I would be a good fit for your houseshare dynamic. Keen to get to know y'all, hopefully we can talk it over coffee or video call. Patricia c:

Hey there! I’m currently studying full time at Uni of Melbourne doing my second year of a Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Psych. I first moved to Melbourne to study last year but with COVID I had to move back home, so trying again for hopefully a second time lucky situation with a bit more rental experience.

I’m pretty social and love to meet and talk to new people and just about anyone! I’m also LGBTQ+ friendly and 420 friendly, just overall non judgy and keen to meet some cool people. I’m looking for a house that has a sociable and homely vibe too it with a similar age range to myself, 18-25 as I’m turning 19 in early Jan. I don’t have any pets, but have no problem at all of the house does, if anything I’d consider it more hahah.

Hey folks. Myself and my partner are looking for a share house to call our new home. We are going into our second year at university, and lived on campus together for our first year. A little bit about us: I’m Ash (she/her they/them), I’m 19 and studying a Bachelor of Arts full time at the university of Melbourne. I enjoy reading and cooking/baking. I’m vegan (but I don’t mind if you aren’t) and love experimenting with food. I also have a good few houseplants that I like to take care of. I currently live 2 hours out of Melbourne (moved home for the summer), and will probably continue to have a job down here throughout the year (so I would be out of the house for 2 nights a week). I like to keep things clean and tidy and make sure jobs get done when they’re needed. Cass (they/she) is trans and non binary, 19, and also studying arts at the university of Melbourne, interested in cultural studies and gender studies. She loves music and art (plays the drums but not as often now). Cass is from Melbourne, and currently looking for a job. They are also vegetarian. Cass loves watching a good movie and picking it to pieces, some of her favourites include ‘But I’m a Cheerleader’, ‘Akira’, ‘Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me’ and ‘Princess Mononoke’. We are interested in areas surrounding Parkville, where we will be studying. A list of the areas we are looking at is: north Melbourne, west Melbourne, Parkville, Brunswick (as well as west and east), Carlton (as well as Carlton north), Fitzroy (and Fitzroy north), and possibly Collingwood or Coburg. Ideally we’d like to find a place that is no more than $1000 pcm but could be a bit flexible for the right place. We consider ourselves excellent communicators and like to keep things clean and tidy. We would be happy with moving into an already established sharehouse looking for some new additions, or finding people to house hunt with. Ideally we would have our own bathroom, but this isn’t an absolute necessity 🙂 We have some of our own kitchen wares and appliances, as well as the possibility of a dining table if needed, and plenty of furniture for our own room, as well as possibly some extra for other living spaces. The idea of sitting down and eating meals together appeals to us, but understand that sometimes people like to be alone. We enjoy the occasional alcoholic beverage, but don’t want a party house, and are also okay if you don’t drink. We are LGBTQIA+, SW and 420 friendly. We’d like to move in by the end of February 🙂

Loves cocktails, coffee and music and has a pretty sweet set up for all 3 of those and loves sharing it. We are both social people and spend most nights having dinner together or watching TV after work, so we would love someone who will join in on communal activities like that.
