We live in a single story house with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (one ensuited). There are three living areas throughout the house. The pool room overlooks an in ground pool that is surrounded by lush tropical plants. There are covered outdoor areas suitable for outdoor eating and relaxing. There is a lock up two car garage. At the back of the house is a 'toy shed' which is the storage for the kids bikes and toys.
Our house is about relaxation. We are close enough to all the amenities, shopping, tourist attractions, but far enough away that you feel far from the madding crowds.
We live in a quite cul de sac street which is close to great amenities. We are in 2 minutes walk to public transport that will take you into Surfer's Paradise and beyond. In 5-10 minutes you can walk to the local pub/club/restaurants .
