Description of the home we are offering for exchange
A townhouse, few minutes walk from good beach and transport to city. Close access to tourists precincts and freeways to out of town attractions. Private and secure. Large open living area downstairs leading to a recently renovated courtyard. Upstairs two good bedrooms, open study area and large bathroom and laundry. Lots of natural light.
In spite of being only ten minutes from the city, the area is very quiet. The tram to the city is less than five minutes walk, and the trams travel frequently. The bay is a mere ten minutes walk and offers an expanse of beaches and walks, with cafes, the Tasmanian ferry, and good fish and chips. Bay Street running parallel to Ross Street has all the shops, more eateries, and plenty of parking behind the supermarket. A few minutes away by car or a ten minute walk. Most say the home is quiet refuge after exploring.
