Andy
Townhouse located two short blocks from The Strand beach. Only a couple minutes walk to Coles supermarket, cafes on Gregory Street, McDonald's, Seaview Hotel and the Waterpark.
I live in Sydney but find myself visiting Townsville regularly to catch up with friends and to enjoy the North Queensland lifestyle. When not in town I make my apartment on The Strand available to travellers. Hope you enjoy the ambience and convenience of my apartment as much as I do. My hobby is collector of music videos, mostly relating to bands that I grew up with from the rock & disco eras of the seventies and eighties. Also of African music but living in Oz you don't get any real exposure to the great talent available. I love good concerts but having hundreds of concert videos of my own this sets a sort of high standard in my mind as to what is a great, memorable concert and what is just an OK one. My top concerts have been: Niles Rogers & Chic in Sydney, Joe Cocker on the Gold Coast, Angelique Kidjo and Salif Keita both at the Sydney Opera House, Ricky Martin in Sydney, Hot Chocolate in Sydney, Lionel Richie in Sydney, U2 in Sydney.
Couple of minutes walk gets you to the North Ward shopping centre with Coles supermarket, Liquorland bottle shop, Post Office, Pharmacy, Subway, Domino's Pizza and McDonald's. Walk two short blocks gets you to the Seaview Hotel, the cafes on The Strand as well as the beach side Waterpark. 10-15 minutes walk gets you into the town's nightlife centre with many restaurants, pubs and night-clubs. 20 minutes walk gets you to the Casino.
