We live at Crystal Creek on the north coast of NSW, about twelve km out of Murwillumbah and within easy reach of the coast and bigger towns (though Murwillumbah is a thriving community and has good shops). We have a 3 bedroom brick house which is easy care. All normal facilities available- washing machine, dishwasher, digital TV/DVD player and recorder, reverse cycle air conditoning/heating etc.
We live in a rural area on eight acres and have a few head of cattle, a fish tank and aviaries of birds. The birds require daily maintenance but it's not onerous We have tried to make the cages as easy as possible to look after. Although we have about 87 Australian parrots in our aviaries, this is not a business/money making concern. It is a hobby. We do occastionally sell some young birds when the parents breed but just want to make it clear that we are not operating a business. We are hoping to downsize in the near future.
We have a beautiful creek running through our property (great for swimming but no fishing please).It is a quiet and scenic area about half an hour from the beach and surrounded by national parks. We would prefer a retired couple who would enjoy a rural setting. No children please as we cannot be held responsible with a creek and cattle troughs on our property.
House rent free, electricity free. Landline available for domestic and domestic mobile calls. Wi fi available
Please only apply if you really like animals and would be willing to care for our birds. Also please don't apply if you are not confident in a rural setting. A car is really essential for this house sit as there is no public transport.
