Our home

Standard 3 bedroom house. Access to own room, open plan lounge with comfy couch and tv. Coffee machine and lovely outside deck to enjoy a cup of tea/coffee. House is within a bush setting so all types of critters are around; we have local king parrots and lorikeets who can be seen from the bedroom/ lounge and sometimes fly to visit on the deck.

favoriteWhat we love about our area

It is a really peaceful neighbourhood with a 'shortish' walk to coffee and local friendly grocer. Access to bus stop (10mins) and walkabout creek (15/20mins). Lots of bush walks are within walking distance. If you like to Mountain bike ride gap creek trials are a short steep hill ride away! City is

Our pets

DogsDogs (1)
Looking for some one to cuddle and care for Winnie. Preference for either WFH or retired person/couple.
Winnie is a beautiful German Short Haired Pointer x Australian Cattle Dog.
He usually gets a couple of walks a day; sometimes they are just a stroll around the block. He loves people but not always all dogs so he doesn't go off lead or into dog parks. He is predominately an inside dog and loves to spend most days relaxing on the couch.
