Hi! I'm Mick. My wife Denice and I have recently relocated to the Sunshine Coast. I'm in the fitness industry and my wife has her own massage business.
We enjoy getting away camping with our 2 Border Collies.

Why they chose this property

North Buderim, Queensland, Australia offers a wonderful lifestyle due to its convenient access to parks, shops, and the beach, as well as its numerous opportunities for outdoor recreation. Shopping options include the Sunshine Plaza and Coles Shopping Centre, both a short drive away. For beach lovers, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba & Alexander Headland Beaches. They all have their own Surf Clubs and is a short bike ride away, and other pristine coastal beaches are less than ten minutes by car.

What makes this property unique

We appreciate the peaceful ambiance of this suburban-style location, conveniently located seven minutes from Maroochydore Plaza or ten minutes from the beach.
