About This Home
A California bungalow on Illawarra Road, a few streets from the Marrickville Metro and about ten minutes' walk to the Cooks River path. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, high ceilings, and a back deck under a passionfruit vine that is where we spend most evenings.

He is smart, loyal and needs a job, so a decent walk along the river and some training games keep him happy. Mango and Sky are our two rainbow lorikeets. They live in the aviary, need fresh nectar mix daily and the aviary hosed out twice a week. They are loud in the morning and worth it. Marrickville has become one of the better parts of Sydney to eat in, and most of it is walkable from the front door.
