Question is this the middle of nowhere

I ve just been looking at web site with some great houses on but im not too sure if theyd be too far away from work. My husbands a truckie and hasnt got a job lined up so we re adaptable but we dont want to have to travel more than 40 mins to work. The houses are in toogoom, kawunga and woodgate beach. We also like redland bay and aroona but have no way of knowing if there in the middle of nowhere. Wish we had enough money to just tour around for a year or two - so does everyone else i bet! If anyone has any info on these places id be real grateful. There all in Queenland

Errrrrrr where are you heading for?

Redland Bay is bayside Brisbane, Woodgate is 4 hrs north near Bundaberg , so not really commutable & I dont even recognise the others, so I doubt they are around Brisbane.

Suggest that you search by area on Realestate.com.au , not by price .

If you are looking at moving to Brisbane, Redland Bay would be the only one suitable out of that lot.

Try this Realestate.com.au search by map you should be able to find where you want to live.

As Mrs D said Pialba - Bundaberg way: toogoom, kawunga and woodgate beach.

aroona - near Currimundi on the Sunshine Coast
