Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We can sometimes arrange non-simultaneous exchanges. Experienced Homelink members have two-storey two-bedroom/two-office Converted Warehouse: pool shared with three very friendly neighbours: high ceilings, walls covered with art, large library area. Two double bedrooms, and a double sofa bed downstairs in living area
In Camperdown near the University of Sydney, only 15 minutes from the airport, with an array of eclectic eateries and shops within 5-10 minutes walk from the house (including gelateria recently voted the world's best!). Car share is available, but also very close to both train and bus into centre of city. A wonderful location for a base to travel around Sydney and NSW. Good wireless internet. No landline phone connection, so mobile is essential. Pond inside house. Reverse cycle airconditioning and heating (with solar panels). Garage available and easy on-street parking at front door. Also our two-bedroom weekender in the Blue Mountains might also be available.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
Our local gelateria was voted the best in the world (by a jury in Italy) and it's typical of the quality of restaurants (of all varieties - excellent Turkish, Thai, Indian, Balkan and everything else) just 10 minutes walk from the house. It's also the place for interesting new small commercial art galleries, and many music venues are also within walking distance. King Street, also 10 mins walk away, is perhaps the most interesting entertainment and shopping street in Sydney these days.
