Brunswick East Housemates & Roommates

$260/week•21 year old woman

Hello lovely people! I am moving down to Melbourne in late August/ early September and I’m hoping to find a room around Bruns or Fitzroy but also open to nearby areas. I’ll be continuing my studies part time (mostly on campus) and also working part time. I'd love to find a house that a friendly, homey vibe and housemates who like to hang out on occasion. I'm a pretty sociable person but can also retreat into my study hole when I have lots of assessments. I'm a nature, adventure and music loving soul who is down to earth and can get along with just about anyone. Age feels pretty irrelevant to me. I love hitting the town and seeing live music however I definitely prefer to mostly keep home as a place for downtime and relaxing, so not too keen on a hectic party house. I’m well house trained and have lived in share houses before and can provide references if needed. I'd love to hear from you if you think you have something suitable! alternatively, i’d be open to teaming up with some others to find a place together, so definitely reach out if you would be interested in doing that :)

I am a 40 year old guy who has been living on his own for the last five or so years, although I have had many years of share house experience beforehand. Unfortunately my landlord is selling my home so I will need to find a new place to live. I like video games, board games, and have been known to do the odd movie marathon, or binge a TV show from time to time. I have a 10 year old son who lives with his mother and spends one night a week with me, sometimes a few more during school holidays. He's pretty chill and you wouldn't have to worry about making too much noise in the evening, because he sleeps like a rock most of the time. I also have a small ginger cat named Rocket who is very affectionate and, like most cats, spends 90% of his time asleep somewhere. I'd be interested in teaming up with another single parent, and maybe renting a three bedroom place with a room for our kids to share; or anyone who doesn't mind kids to be honest.

Hello! My name is Abi and I'm looking for a room in a share house to move in around the 5th June (can be flexible). My budget is up to $350/week and I'm looking within inner north/east Melbourne - Fitzroy, Brunswick, Richmond etc. A car space would be a huge bonus too. Here's a bit more about me (sorry it's a bit of a novel);   Work - I work in product operation in the city for a recruitment company (basically streamlining and improving processes) and have been at this company for 3.5 years. I work from home one or two days a week.   Life - outside of work, I like to go on walks with friends, spend too much money on brunch/evening wines, do pilates, journal, read (currently reading Klara and the Sun), listen to/play music (I'm also thinking of getting a keyboard soon), listen to podcasts (my favourite pod is Binchtopia, if anyone knows that?). I go through phases of going to the occasional rave/big night out, but also love a wholesome Sunday morning market or brunch! I'm 420 friendly, and enjoy the occasional smoke. I also enjoy cooking and having dinner parties!   Boring stuff - I’ve lived in a share houses since 2019, so am very respectful, clean and understanding of others space & privacy. I'm also environmentally conscious and a pescatarian.   I also am a big lover of house plants, so can provide greenery around the home It pains me to say I’m allergic to dogs and cats so can’t live in a house with either

Hi! I'm Thuy :) Currently looking to team up with someone or rent an existing property with another person/creative. Looking for a place with a large studio space or a large spare room/basement/shopfront with residential as I have a small candle-making business. The current studio room I have is 6x4 sqm. As a person, I'm easy-going and like to live with someone that is neat and cleans up after themselves. Someone who doesn't mind my absence from home is independent and respects privacy. I'm an adventurous individual (travel-wise), though I don't usually party out anymore. I rarely drink and would not be looking for a party place. Would be a bonus if you are a working creative that wants to share a large studio space. As I will store a lot of my work equipment and stock from home, I'm looking for a place to call home and a flatmate that is honest and trustworthy. If this sounds like you or if you have a place that matches my description, please hola me for a chat! Many thanks, Thuy

Hi folks, I'm a 36 year old high school media teacher. I’m friendly, relaxed and pretty tidy. I've been living by myself for the past couple of years, mostly house sitting trying to save to buy something but recently I've decided solo apartment life isn't my vibe so I'm looking for a house with a back yard, bonus if there are pets involved! I love dinner parties and having some social times with housemates but also really value quiet time at home. I'm super creative and very active. I play mixed pub footy, gym, hike but also do lots of artsy things. My wild party days are done but I enjoy the occasional night out or festival.

Hi I'm Morgan! I'm 23 and I work full-time in Collingwood for a talent agency that manages comedians. I'm originally from Brisbane (bonus points if you are too) - I moved down 5 years ago to study and to be more involved in the comedy scene in Melbourne. I'm usually out of the house for work/gym or out seeing stand-up shows! I like to keep busy but when I'm home I love to have a space I can fully relax in. I'm not a massive partier anymore but would love to have friends over from time to time for drinks & dinner. Looking for one other person keen to do a team up, hoping to move by August/September! Ideally wanting to move to the North side for work but also happy with South Yarra/Richmond. My budget is around $220 a week and I don't need a car space.

Hey! Rian here, Professional stuntman, studying part time, Master adventurer, (self proclaimed) bloody good cook! Let's be honest, I'll probably only be working and studying this year, but if I have any free time I'll usually try to get away from the city for an adventure or having a relaxing weekend of walks, cafes, markets etc. I'm a little ocd about keeping my living space tidy but not in a crazy way! Have lived in sharehouses with both males and females so nothing to worry about there but am looking for somewhere ideally with just 1 other housemate nowadays. Very chilled out, love a good night in cooking up a storm, or a night out to eat some good foods. Not huge on drinking but don't mind one or two now and then.
