Hello

This blog is my *virtual magazine* of stunning homes in Australia currently for sale. The homes are not necessarily perfect (like in a magazine shoot) so you need to forgive some obvious mistakes, and just enjoy seeing how others live, perhaps even take some inspiration from here n' there! (if you see your home here, take a bow because I search high and low before I finally decide to post a home for my blog!) THANKS FOR DROPPING BY...

hi anna, yes, it is a let-down. In fact the whole home is quite basic (perhaps simple is a better word) in decor, but I'd still live there. Maybe I should have said home with potential!

So simple, yet relaxing. I'm looking for ideas to put up on our house. We're doing a DIY. Build house for our family, and a playhouse for the kids is my project this year with my wife.
