General Overview

My son and I would love to welcome you to our beautiful part of the world in sunny Queensland, Australia. We live on the Gold Coast in a much-loved destination for people travelling around Australia. Our home is situated halfway between Brisbane and Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast and only a 3-minute drive to the major freeway that connects the two. It's every child's dream destination as we are so close to the major theme parks of Warner Bros Movie World, Sea World and Dreamworld. Plus multiple water parks. We are also only 20-30 mins drive from beautiful beaches. Our home is set in the lovely quiet residential area of Jacobs Ridge Estate, which is safe, friendly and only a 5 min walk to a major supermarket and small village stores. Ormeau is growing due to its proximity to the two major cities but is still far enough away from all the craziness of busy traffic. We have Westfields a major shopping Centre with restaurants, picture theatre and outdoor kids' area just 10 minutes down the road at Coomera and an even larger Shopping Centre about 14 minutes to the North towards Brisbane. Within an hour's drive there are National parks, Tambourine Mountain and many beaches, Markets and things to see and do. We really are in the heart of it all in both directions.

The Space

We have a large open planned modern 4-bedroom split level home. Upon entry you will see 3 stairs which lead up into the hallway and toward the main area of the house. Off the main hallway we have a large theatre room where you can kick back and watch movies on Netflix, Stan, Prime or Disney channels. We have two bathrooms, one at the front of the house as an ensuite to the main bedroom and one at the rear of the house where the other 3 rooms are situated. Off of the hall is a large open plan kitchen (including walk in pantry) dining and lounge area which opens up onto an outdoor undercover alfresco area overlooking the pool area. You can open up the whole area with two large double sliding doors on either side of the room. Our pool is situated in the heart of the property, and you have visibility from every room surrounding that area. Perfect if you have middle aged kids that want to swim whilst you are inside prepping meals etc The outdoor area is lovely to sit out and enjoy a coffee, wine or your meals as you relax by the pool. On cooler nights (not that we get many) you can close down the blinds and it is all covered in. There is a BBQ for you to enjoy if you prefer to cook outside. There is room for kids to play basketball in the yard or just 1-minute walk at the end of our street is a large Basketball court with tennis courts, situated on a small nature reserve. We do not wear our shoes inside the house and ask that our guests can respect this. We also do not allow smoking or vaping inside our home, however we don't mind if you do outside. We do not ask a cleaning fee unless it is back-to-back exchanges where I am unavailable to ensure everything is cleaned thoroughly re bathrooms, toilets etc. We hope that you will leave our home in the same clean state you found it. Our main bedroom and ensuite will only be offered if there are a large number of guests at any one time. This is because we will store a lot of our personal items in there and also to save adding on a cleaning cost. We are very relaxed and easygoing however to avoid any uncomfortable conversations, please note due for Insurance purposes we do not allow unauthorized guests in our home. Guests need to be approved prior to agreement of the exchange. Only those persons agreed for the PLU exchange are allowed to stay as overnight guests. We have recently had security cameras installed at the front of our property and one overlooking the pool area through to the backyard entrance point. These cameras monitor anyone entering onto our property. The rear camera overlooking the pool cannot see into any part of the house. These have been installed for our protection and for insurance purposes as like many homes in Australia we are not averse to the criminal element of society. This is also our primary home and as we live in an affluent area we are at a high risk. Sadly, we also had a very bad exchange where we suffered damages, and this is also a preventative measure. If you are uncomfortable with cameras around the outside of our home, then this exchange will not be for you. I am happy to discuss this with you if you have concerns.

Guest Access

Split level Large Garage One entry at the front and side entry. Very steep driveway.

Neighbourhood

We live in a beautiful tree lined safe and friendly neighbourhood. Approximately 1 minutes' walk at the end of my street is a small playground for young children which includes a fenced in basketball and tennis court area which is set on a small reserve. It is close to local shops and public transport (buses) 2 mins drive to the major freeway (M1) that connects Brisbane and Gold Coast. We have Zarraffa's Coffee house, KFC, Hungry Jacks and McDonalds, as well as Sushi train and many other types of restaurants all within 5-10 mins walk from our home.

Getting to my home

We are situated halfway between Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We are a 3-minute drive from the main freeway (M1) which will take you to both Brisbane or Broadbeach centre (Surfers Paradise) Trains - The Gold Coast City Line and Brisbane Airport Line both run directly through our train station at Ormeau. (7 min drive from our house) The Brisbane City Airport train runs directly from inside the Brisbane Airport precinct and takes around 1hr 15mins passing through our station at Ormeau. Bus stops are just outside the shopping centre which is 5 mins walk away. If you had a hire car it would be a lot easier to get out and about however it is still easy to get to the Gold Coast or Brisbane without one if you wanted to Uber/taxi to the train station.

Nearest airport

- Gold Coast Airport (approx. 47 minutes' drive depending on traffic) 58km - Brisbane airport (approx. 43mins depending on traffic). 53kms

Getting Around

We are a 5-minute walk to coles supermarket and small shopping complex. There are multiple bus stops near our home and from the shopping precinct nearby. Download the My Translink app for further information.
