About Our Home
Our large clean house is minutes to the M1 Gold Coast highway and Gold Coast/Robina train line. Visit the famous golden beaches of Surfers Paradise and Gold Coast, walk the gorgeous rainforests, and see Dreamworld, Movieworld, Seaworld, Wet & Wild Waterworld, Outback Spectacular, Alma Park Zoo. Our house is 1 train station to the Brisbane SouthBank beach, and minutes to 2 shopping centres. Brisbane is the 3rd largest city in Australia and 40 minutes south is the Gold Coast. We live on the southside of Brisbane, near the city. Woolloongabba is a wealthy suburb and considered safe. Our house is a traditional 'Queenslander' - this is a timber house with a large verandah to keep cool. :) Our car is a silver Toyota Camry 2006 - 5 seater.
Special Considerations
No smoking inside please. Our house is huge - and part of the house may be sometimes used by our long-term student. She has her own bathroom etc.
