General Overview
Our home is in Ocean Reef, a suburb approximately 30 minutes' drive North of Perth, we are easily accessed from both city and airport by bus and train, though the easiest way to travel in Perth is by car. Our car is available for use as part of exchanges, and we have car seats available for use if needed too.
Ocean Reef is a beautiful, safe beachside suburb with an abundance of local parks and stunning nearby beaches. Hillarys Boat Harbour is a short 10 minute drive, with several dining and entertainment option there, including the Aquarium of Western Australia (AQWA).
There are many incredible places to explore in Perth, from the city and Kings Park, to the Fremantle Arts Precinct, Yanchep Caves and National Park, John Forrest National Park, Lesmurdie Falls, the Swan Valley wine region, and parts of the Bibbulman track. This is just to name a few - there are many more places than this to explore in Perth and surrounds, as well as Margaret River in our South West being a short few hours' drive, and Lancelin, the Pinnacles and several other tourist destinations/attractions within a couple of hours' drive to the North.
The Space
Our home is a bright, spacious 4x2 with separate study, large yard and a pool, as well as being across the street from a playground. It is bright and modern, and well equipped with everything you need from a washer and dryer, to a dishwasher and even our car is available for exchange, for a comfortable stay. It is perfect for kids, travelling pets, and for working from home.
In the bedrooms - the master has a king sized bed, minor bedrooms have one queen, one double, and one set of single bunks. The lounge also has a queen sized sofa bed.
Guest Access
Our home is on a single floor, with the rear lounge being sunken, though the backyard is also accessible via the laundry door. The doorways are not level entry, so it is not fully accessible, and the showers have brick height hobs.

The best way to access our home is via car, but it can also be accessed via train from the airport to the city, then from the city on the Joondalup line, where a bus can be taken to the bus stop at the high school near our home.

Kristen and Kieran's home was absolutely delightful to stay in for our two weeks of summer holidays with our kids and grandkids. Their wonderful home offered plenty of room for all seven of us, as well as the largest amount of toys available to the children, that one could ask for. If they weren't building, reading or playing inside, they were climbing, bouncing or swimming in their beautiful back yard. Truly a delight for children to be able to entertain themselves hour after hour. I would highly recommend this great location, with close proximity to many beaches for any family. Kristen's thoughtfulness and easy communication regarding the area and their home, made our exchange truly a fulfilled dream vacation. -
This was a truly great house swap. It was easy to communicate with Kristen both before and during the swap where needed. A lovely spacious home right opposite a large field and great pool and yard too. The location is good which plenty of beaches with a short distance. The car was a bonus. The handover folder and local knowledge was really useful. We are Melbourne based and the beaches and sunsets in Western Australia were some of the best I’ve ever seen in the world! Highly recommend a swap with Kristen and Kieren to ocean reef. -
We had a great exchange with Kristen and Kieran. Their house a was very well organised and modern and close to some wonderfull beaches and also close to a shopping centre. Their house was so clean and their lovely welcome gift was a nice touch. I would most highly recommend anyone wanting a stay in Perth to exchange with Kristen and Kieran. -
We had the fantastic opportunity to go on a 4 month long exchange to Kristen and Kieran's house in Ocean Reef. Their house is spacious, very well equipped and ideally suited to families, which was perfect for us as the parents of two young children. We particularly enjoyed the good sized swimming pool and backyard. The house is walking distance to shops, parks and playgrounds, and right opposite the local primary school which our children attended for a term. Perth CBD is an easy 20 minute drive away and there is plenty to do within a short distance. Some of our favourite outings were to the Swan Valley, Yanchep Lagoon, Rottnest Island and Caversham Wildlife park. We found the Northern suburbs in general a very family friendly place, and we were never short of things to do.
