Neighbourhood
Located in peaceful Koala Beach, our home is in a safe, friendly and quiet neighbourhood. We live in Koala Beach estate which is a wildlife sanctuary and no dogs or cats allowed. There is abundant birdlife and wildlife in the estate, we even had a koala in the tree in our front yard recently.
Our neighbours are all lovely people with kids. Across the road is a reserve so you look out to trees, not houses which is beautiful.

Our house is close to the Gold Coat Airport (25 minutes drive). You can take a taxi or Uber from there.
