Our home

My place is single story, one bedroom flat that shares a wall with a neighbour. It is very cosy with a beautiful east facing back window where you can bask in the morning sun. It has a spacious living area and a courtyard. I adore it! We don't have wifi nor a TV, so it's a great place for a little tech detox.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

Braybrook is nestled between bustling Footscray and Sunshine (so, access to delicious food) and is a short walk away from the beautiful Maribyrnong River. Central West Shopping Centre is a 10- 15 minute walk away for all your shopping needs. Buses are close, Tottenham station is approx. 20min walk.

Our pets

Rabbits/Guinea PigsRabbits/Guinea Pigs (1)
Primrose is a chinchilla x flemish giant bun who is extremely sweet and quite independent. She lives mostly inside where her litter tray, food, water and toys are available to her. Her litter tray is changed 1-2 times a week and is replenished with cardboard-litter and oaten hay. She is given fresh water, pellets and greens daily. She absolutely loves her little high fiber bun treats and banana, which she gets sparingly as treats (eg. I give her a small slice of banana (her fave), once a week because it's not great for her gut health). She also loves frolicking in the courtyard where she nibbles, digs and explores her outdoor world. If she decides to dig under the fence she needs to be redirected and the hole filled in. She can be slow to warm up to new people but when she does she is quite affectionate and will sit with you on the couch or under your feet when you're doing lounge room yoga... she loves affection and will produce you with her nose to remind you she's like a pat.

Our garden

local_floristGarden or plant care

Minimal - There are plants and some esible leafy greens in the courtyard and plants out the front of the place that will need occasional watering. You may even see the orchids blooming which I encourage you to harvest and give to a loved one or pop in a vase. There are also indoor plants that you'll probably get away with watering once or twice - they're quite low maintenance.

Review

Taking care of Primrose was a beautiful experience, I love her! Emily was super friendly all the time and made me feel like home. The house is big and beautiful with more than enough space for one person. I absolutely recommend them!
