PETS There is an enclosed balcony & attached laundry where your pets can roam freely! The back yard is not enclose but if you have a long lead you can tie that to the clothesline so that your pet can have access to the back garden. There are many trinkets at the property so check the listing pics and consider carefully if the house would be suitable for your pet. Please clean up after your pets. If there is extra cleaning required as a result of having your pet at the house we will need to charge an extra cleaning fee. The Entire house is available for guest use as well as the outdoor garden area. Being a cul-de-sac street it is a quiet street but parking can sometimes be a bit tight so take care when driving in and parking in the street. 2 cars will fit in the street in front of the house EVERYTHING that you need is within walking distance, via the Dheran Path shortcut!.... the IGA, Brumby's Bakery, a number of quaint cafe's, a newsagent, a medical centre etc...are all located at Springwood. PLEASE NOTE: If you take the Dheran Path shortcut you will need to cross the Great Western Freeway. It's a busy road & there are no traffic lights at the end of the path. The closest traffic lights are at Moorecourt Ave, heading up the mountains (see pic in listings pics). If you take this route it will take you about 20mins to get from the house to the Springwood Shops. I don't live at the house but I can be reached any time through Airbnb. The neighbours are very friendly and are always willing to help with anything that is needed but please reach out to me first. It's a quiet area & a quiet street. The neighbours are very welcoming and friendly. Across the driveway you have Jennifer, Darren & their 3 adult kids. Two retired ladies live in the house at the bottom of the driveway (the 2 Elizabeths) and over the fence on the other side you have a policeman & wife living there. He will sometimes bring the patrol car home, so no need to worry if you see a police car parked in the street! At the start of street you will find the entrance to the Birdwood Gully Park walking trail. It's a beautiful bushwalk taking about 90 minutes to complete and right at your doorstep! Springwood is a great central location to be based in to visit the Blue Mountains and the many bush walking trails. The Springwood train station is about 5mins walk from the house. There is also a bus stop just down the road from the house, on the Great Western Highway. You can head down to Penrith/Sydney or up the mountain to Katoomba. There is a shortcut from Boland Ave to the Great Western Highway & to the Train Station. This path is located inbetween Number 19 and Number 21 Boland Avenue. It's called the Dheran Path. As a result the walk from 36 Boland Ave to the train station & bus stop takes no longer than about 5 mins and about 10 mins to the IGA in Springwood. If you are bringing your pet please let us know what pet you are bringing. Please also bring bedding, no pet to sleep in any of the beds. PLEASE NOTE: This is not a hotel or motel so please clean up after yourself, clean up any messes including the stove top and leave the house as you found it, getting rid of all of your rubbish in the bins provided and please only use the linen & towels that you need. This greatly assists us to control costs. You will love the historic period furniture, paintings & decor. The house has just been repainted inside & looks amazing. There are 2 Natural Gas Heaters in the house. One is located at the end of the enclosed verandah in the 'Chill Zone" and the other one inside the fire place. There are also column heaters for use in the bedrooms or they can be moved to whatever room/s you would like to use them in. PLEASE BE AWARE that the laundry light is not working. We have put a light in the laundry that you will need to switch on if you enter the laundry at night. What you can also do is open the roller blind in the laundry so that the light from the enclosed Verandah shines through into the Laundry room. PARKING is on the street in front of the house. The neighbours are aware that guests with cars will need to park at the front of the property, so that should always be available to you. If, for some reason, it isn't please do not hesitate to let me know & I will do what I can by contacting the neighbours to have them move their car. Alternatively you can park anywhere in the street. ALSO please be aware that our communication with you will be via Airbnb chat & the Airbnb App. You will need the Airbnb App on your phone & understand how to access the chat & check-in instructions. If you don't have the App you will need to save the check in instructions from your computer to your phone.
