My house is a five-minute walk from here.

Hi

Would you say both sentence are equally natural?

My house is a five-minute walk from here.

My house is five minutes walking time away from here.

and what about:

My house is five minutes walk from here.

Thanks,

Tom

Thanks!

And what about "flying time away"? Would it work?

Canada is six-hour flying time away from here.

We don't say 'flying time away'. We use the word 'flight'. Canada is a six-hour flight from here.
