Our Home For Exchange
Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our home is 100 k's north of Brisbane. An Airport shuttle is an easy option although we can park our car at Brisbane Airport for exchangers. The house is a modern Tuscan styling on small easy-care block of 500 sq.metres (house under roof 270 sq. met.) located in the centre of the Sunshine Coast strip.
The Sunshine Coast is a 60 km coastline to the Coral sea with sandy, surf beaches that seem to go forever. The Coast is an acknowledged tourist area from Noosa on Laguna Bay to the north and to Caloundra in the south, total area of 5,000 sq. kms. incl. beautiful hinterland and villages.
Steve Irwin Zoo is a 20 min. drive, World Heritage listed Fraser Island is about 2/3 hours drive north and the beautiful Mooloolaba beach only 10 min. drive.

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home
From our house it is a very pleasant 5 mins. walk around the boardwalk skirting the canals to our local cafe overlooking Double Bay, A 10 min. drive will take you to Kawana beach where you can walk for miles on the sandy beach or swim (not a patrolled beach). Another 5 mins. drive will take you to Mooloolaba waterfront and beautiful beach with BBQ's and playgrounds, as well as many restaurants. The Yacht Club is in this area too and provides a very pleasant outlook whilst dining on the terrace. Many other seafood restaurants are in this area too providing easy take-out meals or good dining. Mooloolaba is noted for it's prawns. Then there is the wonderful Hinterland to explore with it's amazing views, galleries, shopping and cafes.
