  Speaker 1: Well, Cam, it's time for our property of the week.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Thanks to LISTA and today we actually have a property
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: from their website. It's pretty cool, and even more cool,
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: we have an opportunity to speak to the vendor now,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: which is awesome. It is thirty erskine loop in Google
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: and Teresa is a vendor and joins us. Teresa, good morning,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: how are you.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: I'm great, Thank you, how are you good?
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining us. This place is awesome.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Tell us all about it.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: I guess yeah, you could say it's a little bit unique.
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: The thing that I think stands out the most is
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: that it is a true multi generational home, so it's
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: essentially two houses in one. So we're also really lucky.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: We're in I guess one of the more pre established
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: areas in Googong, so not surrounded by construction. It's a
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: really lovely neighborhood. We're on a huge corner block, so
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I think we're on about, you know, one forty one
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: square meters, so pretty big. I got seven bedrooms, four bathrooms,
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: so two full bathrooms and two on seats, multiple living areas,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: and I think one of the things that stands out
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: for me is we've got a really good sola set
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: up at the moment. So we've got a twenty eight
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: killo lot solar system, twelve point eight kilo lot battery,
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: very energy efficient here.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: I think about Google, like Teresa. I've got a friend
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: who lives there. They've got four kids, and she talks
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: about how they ride their bikes, you know, to their neighbors'
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: houses and to school together, like all the sort of
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: what I guess is considered old school things that you
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: would do as a family we used to do. Yeah, right,
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: And so she said that that's what they get out
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: there in Google. So if a family, for example, word
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: of move into your place, that's what they'd be able
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: to experience.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. So I've got three kids on my own and
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: we do the exact same thing. So we ride our
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: bike source Goodess to school. There's riding tracks throughout the
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: entire neighborhood. You can go all the way out to
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Google Dam. There's walking trails out there. There's skate parks,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: there's a mini golf course they're in the process of
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: building like a small leisure center. There's tennis courts. It's
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: wonderful for families and perfect for spending time outdoors.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: Okay, so you've rattled off quite the list there, I'm
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: still going to ask what have you loved about living
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: the actual place? I mean it sounds grand, seven bedrooms, massive,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: sort of solar and everything, but what have you really
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: loved about it?
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: I think for me, it's been the flexibility and the
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: usability of the house, so you can really make the
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: house work for you and you don't really need to
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: fit your life in the home, if that makes sense.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: So we've, like I said, we've got the three kids,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: so we've really utilized the space. So the kids have
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: their own wing. I've got my own study, their dad
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: has his own study, they've got their own toy room.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: So we've kind of really expanded and given the kids
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: room to grow. But at the same time, if you
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: are a multi generational family, there's plenty of space for everybody,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: or a joint family, or if you run your own business,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: you can run the business out of the you know,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: the three bedroom house rather than the four bedroom house
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: or privately let it. So for me, it's just having
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: that flexibility and space to grow and you know, change
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: with the needs of the family. It has been it's
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: just a godsend.
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that all sounds amazing, but I would imagine
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: it comes with a slight word of warning because if
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: you've got a place like that and you've got kids everywhere,
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: this is the house that everyone else has coming to, Yes,
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: you'd better be ready.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: For that as well, people knocking at your door.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Hate do you know what, though, it's perfect because you
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: have people come and stay. They have their own personal area.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: They have their own personal space, so family like friends
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: who have kids the same age, they have their own
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: bedroom and bathroom where they can set up. You know,
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: you don't feel like you're on each other's toes, you know,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: bring the toys, spread out. There's room for everyone, so
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: that and that's been lovely because we have a lot
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: of friends into state that visit.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, it's so good. And one
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: of the photos I love is that playroom that's set
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: up there with the sun coming in and you can
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: just see I can you know, sitting on the floor
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: on the mat there with the kids playing. It's just
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: really awesome.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, wonderful. Teresa. All right, well, thank you so
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: much for joining us. We know it's listed on list,
• 4:29
