About this house sitting position in Rosslea, Townsville

Looking to escape the cold for a few weeks in winter paradise??

Custom built open plan tropical home with relaxed feel.
25 metre fully private lap pool and 1/4 acre easy care garden. No pets.

Close to river with long bike/walk paths and excellent parks. Coffee shop and pubs/restaurant close by. Close to golf course. Good fishing in nearby river, or off the Strand beach or Reef. 10min drive to Strand beach and parkland. Magnetic Island (do yourself a favour!) 20 minute ferry ride.

At this time of year a small section of tropical garden and grass, and a few large pots may need watering with sprinkler system once/twice weekly. The pool will need weekly acid check and possible water topup. Depending on wind and leaf litter, either a robot cleaner can be used to maintain, or manual leaf scoop. Everything else is self maintaining.

No lockup garage, but carport space for one vehicle, and possible side yard storage for a small van, like our Jayco J-Pod camper.

We have some flexibility with dates.

Reviews for Peter and Kayleen

5 stars stars
“Kay and Pete have a unique open style home set amongst the most glorious native gardens that they have designed themselves. It attracts bowerbirds, curlew families and lorikeets amongst many other species. The backyard is very private and peaceful. A large pool and open plan livingroom overlooking the pool made me feel like I was in a resort. Their home has all the usual cleaning and gardening for a standard block. The lawn takes only 15mins to mow. There is a cafe within 3 mins walk and is open for breakfast. All other conveniences are within 3-5 min drive. Best of all Kay and Pete are very kind, relaxed and welcoming people. I am very lucky to have found them and will definitely jump at another opportunity to spend time at their resort.” - Read more
