We are seeking two like-minded folk who would like to join a gorgeous big share-house in Newport.
The house is a newly built 5star rated sustainable house that is part of an artistic community of three independent dwellings. The other two houses are occupied by one family with a 5yr old boy and another couple with a dog. All of us work in the arts and community and we seek two roomies who enjoy sharing meals, conversations not only within the home but also within the established community.
LOCATION
The community is situated right opposite the lovely Newport Lakes Park, in Newport, on a dead end road, with a beautiful view. We are 1km from the Newport train station, and bike riding distance to Williamstown beach.

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
David and Tirese are friends (in their 40’s) wishing to create a harmonious share household with folk who will be into all of the above. We are interested in sharing with people considerate of sharing space, food/kitty shopping. A home where we can enjoy eating together now and then, but also have privacy when people want to do their own thing. The house is big and spacious; there is plenty of room to do that. We are looking for people who are responsible in regards to domestic duties and pulling weight cleaning up after self and paying rent on time. We want to set something up that is both communal, yet private and independent that you can do what you want, come and go as you like but the foundations are there for social, shared resources which is in line with the spirit of the community.
