Double Room in Lovely House - Couples Considered
We are a professional couple living in a lovely 3 bedroom house on a good sized section in Papamoa. We are about 1km from the beach and close to the Sandhurst exit off the motorway so about midway between Papamoa Plaza and Bayfair.
The room available has a queen bed, good sized wardrobe, chest of drawers and two bedside tables (each with a lamp). There is an additional cost of $25 per week to cover power, internet, rubbish etc...
- Single Person Rent & services: $225 p/w (direct debit)
- Couple Rent & services: $300 p/w (direct debit)
- 1 week rent in advance
- Bond 2 weeks rent
The kitchen is modern with a separate pantry and has the main lounge and dining on either side. There is a second lounge and both have TV's. There is a study with a decent printer.
The main bathroom is huge with a generous walk-in shower, a bath, 2 sinks and a heated towel rail. There is a spare fridge/freezer in the garage for all your food and outside parking is available for one extra car.
We are social drinkers and have friends from time to time for a casual evening or BBQ. We like a reasonably tidy home and a flat mate would be expected to keep the bathroom clean and vacuum occasionally. We don't care about age (our current flattie is 29yrs) but would like someone who enjoys a chat and a beer or wine from time to time.
We have 2 elderly cats!
The person/people should be relaxed, GSOH, clean and tidy, fit and healthy, enjoy the occasional drink
The room has a queen bed, bedside tables x 2, bedside lamps x 2, chest of drawers. The house has Freeview, broadband internet with WIFI.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
