About this house sitting position in Redland Bay
Our house is located in Redland Bay down a battle axe driveway, beautify arched by trees and hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the town. The absence of any road noise is more than compensated for with plenty of bird song and the area looks more like an isolated retreat, rather than suburbia. In contradiction, Redland Bay Village and the main street has a Woolies, restaurants/takeaways, cafe, bakery, news agent, post office, doctor, dentist, pharmacy and thriving pub, all within a 700-meter stroll or drive.
The home itself spans two 2 stories (17 steps) and the upper story is also split level (3 steps).
- The upper levels consist of 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms a large open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge room and a rear facing balcony with outdoor furniture and small Ziggy. There is also a double garage out the front and 1 bay will be empty for the house sitters.
- The lower level has the laundry, another bathroom, a family fun room, workshop/storage area and lower balcony/entertainment area. There is also a fully fenced pool and spa and this is where the fun, and anti-fun begins. Bloody leaves!
The only challenge with this house is managing the LEAVES. We back onto a lovely public area and walking trail which has some bloody big gum trees. They continuously drop their bounty over the pool, spa, yard and into the house when the doors are open. We have most of the tools available on the market to help manage the leaves, BUT it is an enduring task.
So, what do we ask of potential sitters.
- Obviously, manage the leaves.
- Help maintain the pool and spa. Both are
professionally maintained by the local pool shop but
the leaves will still need to be removed.
- There is no grass, but leaves will need removing from
the artificial turf
- Look after the small side garden. There is an automated watering system, but the leaves will be a pest.
- Normal internal housekeeping in this low maintenance house, but you possibly guessed it, this will require leaf removal.
- Water the few internal and entrance plants. Thankfully, the gum leaves aren't an issue for them.
Please Note. We are looking for non-smokers/non-vapers. Read more...
