2-bedroom shared house, Hollands Ave

UPDATED AVAILABLE FROM : 19 AUGUST 2024 ONWARD (ROOM HAS BEEN TAKEN TILL THEN)

I am offering a quiet, beautiful house in Sydney's Inner West for a single FEMALE student/ academic.
By short term I mean 2 to 3 months minimum, and up to 6 months.
This vacancy is only for University STUDENTS.
For WAGED academics, the rent can be negotiated.

When contacting me, please :
Tell me something about yourself. Just as I have described myself below, I need to know more than "I am interested in this room " OR "When can I see the room? " . Without any information about you, I wont respond.
My last listing garnered over 300 views and many enquiries, so the more info I have the easier it is for me to decide.
ID is essential for both Australian or overseas tenants.
Viewing the room is possible.

About myself
I am a mature, practicing visual and performance artist and academic, with a doctorate in art from UOW with associations with Sydney Uni. I paint, write and work from home. I have been successfully hosting students, artists and academics from Australia and overseas for the past 8 years. My current tenant will leave early JUNE, so I am offering my spare room again.

LOCATION
This location is fantastic for everything, a seven -minute walk takes you down to Marrickville Road where there are buses to the city, and a short walk takes you to Marrickville Station.
Everywhere there are great grocery shops, Chemists, Vietnamese restaurants and other great Greek and Asian eateries, and more.
A ten- minute bus ride takes you into buzzing Newtown and Enmore, and Newtown's famous King Street where there are weekend markets, shops, and restaurants. Close by is Marrickville’s weekend Addison markets for fresh organic produce.
The newly opened Marrickville Library is just down the road and offers another great space to work, with an alfresco cafe.

TRAVEL
A short (7 min) walk to Marrickville road with buses (426 & 423) into the city, will take you to Newtown, Sydney Uni, and Central.
The Bus 412 is even closer, a 2- minute walk from the home that also takes you past Sydney University and Central.
A ten minute walk takes you to Marrickville Station, that will take you to Central in 10 minutes.
If you happen to have your own car, the wide one way street allows parking right outside the home.

THE HOUSE
This is a secure home and neighbourhood with good neighbours who look out for each other. The house is opposite a park, with another large park five minutes away. It is a safe and secure place.

THE ROOM
The guest bedroom has ceiling to floor wardrobes, with ample drawers and hanging space, a comfy double bed (with an electric blanket for winter) and a desk and lamp for working, and is also equipped with an ironing board and iron. It also has a full -length mirror.
