We are a retired couple in our mid 60's who love travel, nature and adventure. We love slow travel and taking the time to immerse ourselves in different places, taking breath and soaking it all in. We love our home and where it's situated and our surroundings are important to us. We have no pets at this point in time but love animals and are fine with swapping with a house with a furry friend. All our children are adults and have flown the nest and we intend to make the most of this great time in our lives.

Neighbourhood
Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our house is located on a park that overlooks the Brisbane river. It is inner city but very quiet and well located to explore the CBD, cafes, Art Galleries, Queensland's new home to dance and Ballet, Theatres, Football stadiums, the famous West End Saturday Markets and South Bank Parklands. They are all at your doorstep via Citycat Ferries, Bus, River walk and bikeways. Brisbane has been announced as the City to host the 2032 Summer Olympics due to it's vibrant present atmosphere and impressive network of amenities and will be a very exciting place to live leading up to this event. Google Earth this house address and see for yourself it's incredible location. It's also situated close to three major hospitals.
