This is a huntsman spider (family Sparassidae). Also known as giant crab spiders they frequently are found indoors. They are capable of inflicting a painful bite if mishandled, but are not dangerous to humans. Your photo is too blurry for a positive specific i.d. - see http://tinyurl.com/8a6xe for some common Australian species.
