Description

Our comfortable home is low set with a large paved and covered outdoor entertainment and bar-b- que/garden areas. This area has a private, heated salt water rock pool and waterfall. We have car exchange available, double lockup garage, airconditioning, broadband, foxtel, DVD, surround sound etc.

There are many things to do within walking distance - tennis, golf, gyms, shopping, restaurants, walks - Brisbane River is nearby this includes lovely Parks and gardens and walking/bike tracks.

Brisbane has a beautiful climate -sunny most of the time. As the slogan advertises "Beautiful One Day Perfect the Next". Winter temperatures are around 22C and summer 28 - 32 C. The Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Hinterland and Moreton Bay Islands are only an hours drive.

Neighborhood

Our house has the bus at the door which travels to the city and takes about 30 minutes depending on the time of day. The bus also stops at the large shopping centres along the way. We have many very good restaurants closeby. Because of our climate we eat and live outdoors most of the time. Our suberb is on the Western side of Brisbane and is a River suberb with lots of trees, parks and walking/cycling tracks. We have easy access to the South and North Coast Freeways and often spend a day at the Gold Coast Surfing beaches.
