About this homestay
My name is Kate and I live in a small home in Blackburn with two friendly dogs and two cats.
The house has a relaxed, peaceful feel and would suit someone looking for a calm, comfortable and welcoming place to live while studying or working in Melbourne.
The available room is a double bedroom with a study desk and built-in wardrobes.
The home is located in leafy Blackburn, with trains direct into the Melbourne CBD and nearby bus services as well. It is conveniently located for Deakin University, Monash University, Box Hill TAFE and the city.
Westfield Doncaster, Forest Hill Chase and Box Hill Central are all nearby, along with great cafés, parks, bike tracks, walking tracks and sporting venues.
The house includes Wi-Fi, heating/cooling, full use of kitchen facilities, a shared bathroom, a small rear garden and a large front garden. Off-street parking is available for a small car.
I’m friendly, respectful and fairly independent, so the home would suit someone who is tidy, considerate and happy in a quieter household environment. I’m always happy for a chat and to help someone settle into Melbourne, but I also understand the importance of personal space and downtime.
