Housemate wanted!!!

Yaki from Avondale

Kia ora koutou, we are moving down to Waikato and renting out our house to our friends but they’re looking for a housemate or two to share it with. Here’s the description of who they are and who they’re looking for, please PM if interested ♥️:

Hello kind humans, we are on the search for our new flatmate/s. Could it be you?
Moving date would be 31st Jan 2022.
Location - Avondale, Auckland
Who are we?
I’m Kerry-Leigh, a 32 year old full-time chiropractic student who loves animals, cooking (and more importantly eating) as well as connecting with people in a meaningful way. In my spare time I enjoy taking care of our garden, walking our dog, Lunar, and spending time in nature. My part-time work involves walking dogs, dog-sitting and cooking for a family.
My partner, George, is 28 years old. He works full-time as an Acoustic Engineer (NOT an audio engineer!), and loves music, food, meditation, and nature. In his spare time, he writes and records music, moves his body, walks Lunar with me and reads many books.
Our dog, Lunar, is a 2 and a half year old Maltese x Shih Tzu. She has lots of personality and loves cuddles, licking and being involved in what’s happening.
Who are you?
- You are an open-minded, kind and authentic human.
- You LOVE dogs! (This point is quite important as Lunar will want to spend time with you, and I will have other dogs in the house occasionally).
- You are vegan (or are happy to not cook and eat meat in the house. We are open to someone who is vegetarian).
- You like kids. George and I are planning to start a family in the not-so-distant future.
- You are a friend of the earth. We are doing our best to reduce our carbon footprint, so would ideally like to live with someone who can join us on this mission.
Details about the home:
Located on St George’s Road in Avondale. It’s walking distance to the Avondale town centre, and super well connected to the city with public transport and a cycleway. There’s a great Sunday market that has cheap fruit and veggies, with lots of green spaces nearby. Plus the west coast beaches are not too far away!
You’d have your own sleepout, and bathroom - which you'll have to share with the washing machine 🙂
The above photos of the bedroom and bathroom would be yours. Please note there is no longer a carpet, and it has a polished concrete floor now.
Rent is:
$180/week for single
$250/week for a couple
+ expenses which are roughly $20 per person/week (winter will be a little more due to heating). Ideally we would just split the bills as they come.
You’d have access to the rest of the house, which has a spacious open-plan kitchen living area and large lounge.
Plus there is a big veggie garden!
If this sounds like you, please be in touch and we’ll arrange a meet-up 😊

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
