Bangalow part 3



I never stop talking about my pursuit to live in Byron Bay Hinterland. I spend every spare minute on real estate websites hunting for my dream home. Now if you know me personally you will laugh because I can never stay in one house for long. I love building and creating but the more we explore the idea of moving our family, the more challenges we face both professionally and personally. So we have another plan! We are going to down size our home and renovate an old Queenslander or Colonial style home, and base ourselves in Brisbane then use what we have left to buy a holiday home in the Byron hinterland. We then can test country living on a less permanent basics and if we love it, then we can take the big leap. The only problem is finding a country holiday home on our budget. Well then I found this house and Bingo!!! perfect, love, love, love it! perfect holiday house except, Its SOLD! I can't tell you how disappointed I am, how selfish of the buyers not to keep this treasure for me! Just because I have not sold my home or simply do not have the money is irrelevant Ha! Ha! On a good note we are now super motivated to finish our landscaping and to get our home on the market asap. As for this gorgeous home, why do I love it so? First its the tree, I must have a big tree and a backyard for Lily and our puppies. Its white (of course), love the guest house and to put it simply, its our perfect country cottage.

What a wonderful idea. Country living does take a bit of getting used to.
That home is wonderful, and the tree is perfect. We have a huge Sycamore tree like that and I am so glad it is there.
I hope you find one just the same Judy.
