Default Expats "House in the Sun"

Seeing as how popular all the TV programmes about moving to, and property in Aus seem to be at the moment, especially to those of us on British Expats who are yet to make the move, I was wondering if any of you lucky people who have already made the move, could perhaps post a photo of your Aussie "House in the Sun"?
It would be nice to be able to see what we might aspire to.......... and as Peter Kay says, I'm also "a bit of a nosey bugger!"

Take a look at any of the online Real estate agencies, you`ll see thousands of them.

Cool pic!

I love birds I do!

When we went to Melbourne we went to Grants Picnic area and fed loads of cockatoos by hand. It was the best bit of our trip for us, sad I know but there you are.

Good post by the way, it's easy enough to search for houses on real estate sites but it's not quite the same as seeing 1st hand what people have got.

Just didn't like them, it looks better (in our opinion) the way it is now. Maybe another photo soon when it stops raining
