Modern single story home close to all amenities
This single-storey home is located in a quiet and friendly neighbourhood, with local shops and cafes conveniently nearby. Life Without Barriers can provide furnishings for the vacant room if the new resident does not have their own.
This home offers shared independent living with active overnight support. We are seeking an outgoing and active male tenant who enjoys living independently with support available. The ideal housemate will appreciate a mix of social and independent activities, get along well with the current resident, and respect personal boundaries.

Housemates
One long-term male resident aged in his late 30’s.
Interests: The current resident is funded at a 1:3 ratio and is looking for a housemate.

His interests include gardening and keeping the lawns mowed, attending old car rallies and going to the Speedway on weekends, fishing and camping, playing tennis occasionally, and playing video games.
