Description of the home we are offering for exchange
We live in a 1930s renovated 'Queenslander' with very good access into the City via public transport (bus, train or ferry). Two queen size beds with the 3rd bedroom with a double Loft Bed. Play room for kids. Walking distance to Suncorp Stadium (rugby, rugby league, soccer and concerts ) cafes, restaurants and parks.
If you enjoy bike riding there is a major bicycle path along the Brisbane River within 2 minutes from our House.
The City has the Gallery of Modern Art, Queensland Art Gallery and State Library. It also has wonderful botanical gardens.
An hour's drive either north of south of the City will get to you to the Sunshine Coast or the Gold Coast, beaches. Theme parks approx 45mins south. Alternatively, you may want to explore beautiful Moreton Bay and its Islands (we recommend North Stradbroke Island).
Winter daytime temperatures are often around 20C and sun with cooler nights.
