But then when you’re back at this house it feels like you’re a million miles away from everything. “It’s a quiet neighbourhood, the beach is pristine and I saw some dolphins the last morning I was there. It’s probably a location not many have considered and not many have heard of.” Mr Arnott said when holiday-makers or visitors to the area did stumble across the property, they would begin making offers. “People have knocked on the door and said would you let us rent it out for the holidays. “It’s never been holiday let, but they’ve been offered $3000 a week.” 8 Elizabeth St, Flying Fish Point is listed with RE/MAX agent Daniel ArnottAnd their reasoning for the generous offers could be due to any number of features this tidy, renovated property packs.

We’ve fielded a lot of inquiry from Melbourne. People simply wanting a change and they’re wanting to move there.

I am looking to add to that history by setting high standards, and holding everyone here accountable to those standards. There is a lot of work to do, and this is day one. We’re going to attack every day with enthusiasm to get this team ready to go.” Related News “Zac is a bright coach with an offensive mind and background, which is important to have in today’s NFL,” Bengals president Mike Brown said. “And he’s young. He embraces new ideas and new ways to do things, which will be a good thing for us. I believe our team will be exciting and fun to watch with him at the helm.”Before he joined the Rams, Taylor was an assistant coach with the Dolphins from 2012-15.Taylor will replace Marvin Lewis, who mutually parted ways with the Bengals after 16 seasons as the team’s head coach.
