Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
SYDNEY-CENTRAL COAST
Our home is a spacious Beach House situated 50m from the unspoilt Copacabana Beach. It has ocean and beach views, great for swimming, surfing, fishing and hiking. We are bordered by Boudi National Park to the south and Avoca and Terrigal Beaches to the north. It is a short stroll to the beach, cafés, shops, the surf club and the lagoon.
Our house has 3 bedrooms plus in-law accommodation with 2 full length decks and coastal views. There are 3 bathrooms, separate rumpus and plenty of space for relaxing, BBQ’s and sea breezes.
We are interested in an exchange within Australia/New Zealand any time during April, July, October or December NSW school holidays. We are also interested in a 4 week overseas holiday to England and Europe during July 2019.
For other tourist attractions visit www.centralcoasttourism.com.au OR just relax at home and enjoy the gentle noise of the waves.

Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our neighbourhood is very friendly with a great sense of community. People come from Sydney to visit their holiday houses, so there is always a buzz around the shops and cafes. All is in easy level walking distance. Our beach is patrolled from September to April. We love whale season – they travel North in June/July and come back south in October/November. They can be seen from the comfort of our house. Sydney is 60 minutes on the train, 70 mins on the motorway, and the Hunter Valley wine country is about a 75 minute drive. As for shopping, we have a fabulous shopping centre at Erina Fair- 10 mins drive, local food shopping- 5 mins at Kincumber, or a short walk to local shops for convenience items. We are also 5 mins from the cafes of Avoca Beach and 10 mins from the very popular Terrigal.
