House in Brisbane, Australia - leafy suburb 6km from city

  • WE HAVE ALL HOLIDAYS BOOKED FOR 2024 - FEEL FREE TO GET IN TOUCH TO DISCUSS FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES. HAPPY TO TALK.

Hi - we’re Fiona & Anthony. We live in the leafy suburb of Camp Hill in a traditional colonial house known as a 'Queenslander'. Located on a hill with views over the suburb, our house has high ceilings and verandahs to catch the Moreton Bay breezes & keep the heat out. The house is completely renovated with all the mod cons. 3 bedrooms (1 x King, 2 x Double), 3 full bathrooms, 2 lounge rooms and separate dining. There is a paved outdoor entertaining area in our backyard. We can accommodate up to 6 people (+ blow up mattress).

There are parks, native bushland, shops and restaurants within walking distance of the house. The bus to the city & the famous 'South Bank', is close by. As we have done a number of exchanges, we know what you'll need and have it ready for you: tourist brochures, maps, bus timetables and of course, sunscreen. Enjoy a morning coffee in the sandstone courtyard, where you can listen to the local bird life. Sip a sundowner on the front porch as the day drifts away and you rest your weary feet. Wander down to the local bowls club for a takeaway Thai meal. If you enjoy cooking, we have a Weber BBQ, a 6 burner gas stove and electric oven.

We have a car (Honda Jazz - manual) to exchange which will allow you to drive the famous beaches of the Gold Coast (less than 1hr) and theme parks (1 hr) as well as the Sunshine Coast (under 2 hrs). A car will also mean you can visit interesting locations such as Daisy Hill Koala Centre, Hamilton Eat Street Markets and enjoy the views over the city and Moreton Bay from Mt Coot-tha.

Several years ago we spent 18 months in Europe. We did lots of great exchanges in places such as Spain, Austria, France, Switzerland and the UK. We are keen to return to Europe again. We have visited the US and look forward to future exchanges there. Please book mark us or drop back to see where we may be interested in going in future.

Julie's house was elegant with lots of space and was tastefully decorated. We had visitors for a few days of our exchange and they were easily accommodated. The house has extensive views over the Derwent River, towards Hobart. There are shops and local dining options with walking distance (it is a steep hill!) as well as a handy bus that goes directly into the centre of Hobart. As we visited over the Christmas period, our exchange partner's plans changed but they were still able to accommodate us staying at their house. A wonderful exchange.
