HOME-AWAY-FROM-HOME

Post Grad/PhD students welcome

Having a good mix of local and international students including under & post-grad and PhD students, the added attraction of our house is the peaceful quietness, cleanliness, and security we provide to ensure a studious environment for our students.

We privately manage our properties to ensure a high standard of hygiene and cleanliness is maintained for the peace of mind and harmony for all. And we ensure all support is given to our tenants to ensure success in their studies.

While this is not a party house, as a reality check, we do strongly advocate & support social gatherings among the housemates (and/or their friends to a limited degree), without crowding the household's space. (Of course, there are strict guidelines in place. Do not apply if you are a party-person. )

If this variety appeals to you, and you can appreciate our house rules, than this exceptional student accommodation could be the place for you.

With superior surroundings, this recently renovated home is designed to provide a family-friendly environment for students. Common areas of this home provide a range of private or group use areas, inside and out, with comfortable seating and tables. There is a large front covered verandah with table and chairs, and a rear undercover sitting area in the back courtyard, with a comfortable lounge and coffee table. (This area also has clothes airers available for drying during wet weather. )

The kitchen is a large, well-appointed galley style, with heaps of space and equipment for multiple users at one time. Facilities include extensive cupboards and storage, fully stocked with crockery, cooking equipment and utensils, a wide range of electrical appliances, 5-burner gas cook top, electric wall oven and grill, microwave, double sink, and two large refrigerator / freezers.
