    Description

    Hello!

    We live (my daughter and I) in a very beautiful house in Overijse. 15 min. drive or else 40 min. cycling from Brussels (heart of Europe).

    The house is just behind the famous forest South East of Brussels called Forêt de Soignes.

    We live with Bonnie (cat), Blues and Jazz (dogs). The three of them are real sweethearts.

    Buses to Brussels or university town Leuven close to the house (8 min. walk).

    Help

    We are looking for somebody to help us with the daily chores (cleaning, animal care, gardening and other outside works) and DIY little works (someone with building, renovation and DIY experience is our preference)

    The house, garden and environment are really unique.

    We offer a very cosy and beautiful room. We just expect honesty, cleanness and good help in exchange.

    Food is not included. Nonetheless when my daughter or myself do cook we normally cook more to share. You would have space in the fridge and freezer for your stuff.

    It is a quite independent space with its own terrace and accesible also directly from the exterior. The room has its own tv with lots of international channels and its own Netflix.

    The house itself is very cozy and luminous. It is situated in a very peaceful street with lots of trees and nature around. There is also a big garden with fruit trees and a small “cute” swimming pool for the summer and beautiful terrasses. For winter we use the fireplace a lot.
