Description of the home we are offering for exchange
Our home is a former flour mill, built in the 1840s from local granite. Inside is a big open space with high ceilings, two sitting rooms with fireplaces, big kitchen and dining area. We have four bedrooms with queen-size beds on two mezzanine levels. There is a pretty garden with trees and a large, vine-covered pergola over a big outside table. Our house is in the heritage-listed, Victorian-era town of Braidwood, on the Southern Tablelands. Canberra and the south coast can be reached by car in one hour. Sydney is a three-hour drive.

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our little town is home to a thriving arts and farming community. It is surrounded by open country and has several national parks close by. There are restaurants and a good pub within easy walking distance as well as art galleries, antique and craft shops and cafes. There are lots of bushwalks nearby, a nine-hole golf course and a swimming hole on the beautiful Shoalhaven River 7kms from town. It is an easy one-hour drive to all the cultural events and sights in the national capital and to the magnificent beaches on the NSW South Coast. The ski resorts of the Southern Alps can be reached in under two hours drive.
