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 option. Happy to create a new share house with the right people.
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 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.
