Description
I have a comfortable and relaxed home with lots of trees and chickens wandering the back yard - 10 minutes from the beach and 2 minutes from the Perth to Fremantle train line.
I welcome strong & motivated people who are keen to help with labouring in preparation for renovations: de-nail floor boards, stack timber, demolish verandah, clean bricks, carry boxes & crates as well as maintenance and odd jobs about the house and garden.
Couple preferred or 2 friends to share double room with queen bed, wifi access & shared bathroom.
