House Swap with us

We’re a close and active family of 7, however only 5 of us need to be accommodated by a house swap. Our 7 year-old Groodle (Freddy) loves people and can either stay at our place or with friends during your stay. We are originally from NSW, and our adventures have seen us live in Brisbane, Melbourne (twice), Hong Kong and Germany. The Northern Beaches of Sydney are among our favourite places. We enjoy beach holidays, experiencing nature at unpowered camp sites and visiting family in regional and rural NSW. We’d love to do a house swap on the Northern Beaches. The Central Coast and Port Stephens areas are also great options. We’d also love to give you a great experience of our home, so that you can be as pleasantly surprised as us by everything that Melbourne has to offer!

The House

The House

We created a home where families can enjoy great times together - tennis court, heated pool, cabana & gym equipment, covered bbq area, 6 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, central heating and aircon, WiFi and TV’s. Above all else, it is "homely" and people feel comfortable here, rather than it being a place where things can't be touched or used.

1 king bed, 2 queen beds, 3 single beds and 1 sofa bed. Kids love sleepovers in the cabana on camping mattresses too.

Short walk to cafes, bars and restaurants, as well as various parks and peaceful tree-lined trails for walking, running or cycling.

150 metres to city tram and 600 metres to city train. Both stop at Richmond and the MCG along the way.

The things we love about living here

  • Our home and its location provide the choice of doing as much or as little as we like.
  • Our family can relax by the pool or play various games on the tennis court, including basketball, netball, cricket, cornhole and more. The cabana is a great spot to chill or to work out using the spin bike, rowing machine, Pilates reformer and free weights.
  • We love that our large kitchen and bbq area are places where we come together to prepare meals and that we have various casual eating spaces inside and outside to enjoy each other’s company.
  • Leo’s Fine Food & Wine (aka “foodie heaven”!) is only 1km from here.
  • The big supermarkets are only 5-7 minutes drive from home and Chadstone Shopping Centre is a 10 minute drive.
  • We moved to Melbourne 20 years ago, but we’re still amazed by how accessible the city and how much it has to offer, from restaurants to the sporting precinct and the arts.
