About the house

Hello people of Brissie!!! We’re offering a great room in our happy house in St Lucia. If you’re over 27 years old, fluent in English and have experience with sharehousing, we’d love to hear from you! Our place is perfect for a UQ student, due to its desirable location close to Guyatt Park, close to 412 (BUZ) bus stop and Guyatt Park ferry stop, only 20 min walk to UQ and 15 min walk to Toowong Village shopping complex. Each room in the house comes standard with a bed & mattress protector, built-in wardrobes, reverse-cycle air conditioning, large desk and office chair. The windows are all double-glazed, so traffic noise is minimal with the windows closed, even though we're on a busy road. They have block-out curtains so your room can be completely dark while you sleep, if need be. The kitchen is fully equipped with various appliances, cooking and dining items, etc. There’s a lovely sunroom/dining beside the kitchen. We also have beautiful gardens. Note that we don’t have a living room, but we do have a very cool music/TV/games den downstairs that doubles as an occasional guest room. A second bathroom is available downstairs for use when needed. Included in the very awesome rent is unlimited high-speed NBN internet!!! Bills are split evenly between all tenants and average at about $16 per week per person. Electricity is billed monthly, while water is billed quarterly. You'll be sharing the house with 4 other people, currently all studying and/or working. It's not a party house, but a relaxed, happy, friendly and sociable vibe. We like a chat as well as our personal space at times. We like to cook and share the occasional meal. We’re responsible, respectful and clean. We all contribute to shared expenses and keeping the place homely. We're a mix of internationals and locals… plus you!! You can view our video tour here: https://youtu.be/GgkpW3ONkbE (things have changed a bit — we now have a full sized second fridge & unlimited NBN internet, plus different housemates). Please note, if you decide to take the room, you'll need to submit an application to the agent for approval before moving in. This could take up to 5-7 business days. Sorry, we are unable to accept couples, pets or smokers. :) Contact us for more details and inspection times.
