Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

We have a clean, comfortable, newly renovated two-level home with a kitchen with a view and two modern bathrooms, one with a bath tub. We live on top of a hill and the upper deck overlooks a large bush garden with a view of the mountains and trees. The home is very comfortable, light and very inviting and we enjoy entertaining in our outdoor room overlooking the garden. There are two bedrooms on this upper level, one with sofa/bed.

The downstairs studio space is bright, spacious and fully equipped for an artist, perfect for a relaxing afternoon read, watching TV, playing Wii, entertaining, time at the computer or as a quiet retreat. It has access to a lower deck overlooking the garden, and a smaller paved courtyard.

Downstairs also sports a bedroom with king-size bed (it unzips to reveal two long-single beds) with an ajoining bathroom, so the whole area downstairs is rather like a guest suite.

If you love birds and birdsong, then this is the place to be.

Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

We live on top of a ridge with views of Brisbane from the end of our street. Our house overlooks our wild tropical garden and beyond to surrounding hills. One end of our street abuts a state forest and we have lots of lovely walking and cycling tracks in our area. There is a local bus stop a few houses away and a railway station nearby. Several schools, parks, gyms, shops, sporting facilities, clubs and eateries are close by and the Gold and Sunshine Coasts are easily accessible.
We have lived in our ever-changing house for 42 years and our neighbours have always been exceptionally kind and helpful to ourselves and our home exchangers. With a great neighbourhood and lovely neighbours, why would we leave?
