rent

Hi Melbournians,

In the next few of months I'm looking at moving. The exact timing is fairly flexible. I can afford to rent a much nicer place if I share with someone.  Is anyone interested? I'm looking for a compatible aquaintance/s (ie geeks), otherwise I'll stretch my budget to live alone, but 2 bedroom places are nearly as expensive as 3 bedroom ones.

I'm looking at
* a house with 3-4 bedrooms, one bedroom for me, one bedroom/study for my craft stuff (or half shared if we have compatible crafts), and of course your bedroom/s.
* General area - within in a very broad radius of mt waverley, preferably within 15m walk from a train station. Inner south eastern suburbs are too far away from the places I need to get to. Think the first few zone two stations along the train lines that go through richmond.
* Some small luxuries, eg some (not all) of:  decent heating, better than average kitchen/oven, house not falling to pieces, garage, etc
* one small step above the cheapest rent (I'd expect to pay more for using more than one bedroom)

About me:
*I have few furnishings (other than tools for cooking and sewing) and would look at getting communal furnishings to compliment any communal ones you bring.

* I am fairly quiet, and will be at work most days. * I enjoy cooking and would be happy to work out some trade (eg cleaning) for construction of superior freezer meals.

* I am neither excessively neat nor messy. * As an introvert, I like to have parties and people over, but not constantly or without warning.
* I am mildly allergic to the following items and would expect you to help minimise my exposure to them in communal areas of the house: shed cat skin, perfumes (including many spray deodorants, scented candles, incense, strongly scented shampoos, most scented cleaning products), a limited number of varieties of houseplants, surprises, excessive airbourne dust, mornings. I would expect to provide assistance with supplying alternatives for some items.

Feel free to pass this on to interested friends. If you are interested, please let me know.
