Description
My Husband & I bought our home in Rathmines (Lake Macquarie, N.S.W) 4 years ago. Since buying it we have been busy renovating our home in-between bringing up our two little girls.
We have a lovely 4 bedroom home, we are nearly done with most of the major indoor reno's however we still have a bunch of things to be done outdoors. We would love to host any individuals that would be willing to help out with the small projects we have pending. Mainly come construction work & landscaping. In return you will get your own room & food. Our home is walking distance to the lake & local shops. We are lucky to have beautiful view of the lake from our home, with some spectacular sunrises and sunsets.
