Located in a quiet end street, the owners of this solid brick home were first taken by the position – walking distance to the sports fields, primary school and golf course but best of all, overlooking an expanse of reserve from the kitchen window.
The locals call it ‘Lake Lockerbie’, an affectionate nickname for the tidal waters of McCready’s creek that stretch out beyond the end of the street. Attracting a plethora of birdlife including Brolgas, Jabiru & Ibis and facing West for those amazing sunsets.
During their ownership of over 13 years, the house has never been inundated with water and remained high & dry during the regions 2008 floods as well as multiple cyclones during the past decade.
Why we LOVE 6 Lockerbie Street…
- Brick home of natural colouring fastidiously maintained by current owners. During this time they have extended off the pebblecrete driveway, to concrete access all the way to the large 2 bay shed with 2 bay annexe at rear. Measuring 6m x 6m with a 6m x 6m annexe this space accommodates everything that fits inside the shed as well as anything that doesn’t!
- Fully fenced yard including gated access across driveway at side of home. Extremely secure for children & pets
- 3.5kw solar makes a noticeable difference in the owners electricity costs and installed to the side of the roof to ensure no impact to street presentation/façade
- Kitchen has been updated in 2018 to include spacious counter tops, large fridge space, near new dishwasher and full height pantry. The bay window that wraps around above the kitchen sink, is a lovely spot to stand and admire the water at high tide
- Open plan living area with split system air conditioning unit also features those lovely unique angles and clever use of a high window to ensure enough room to hang a TV front and centre. Stepping through to the patio, this fully enclosed space provides an extension of the inside – somewhere to lounge or dine in comfort. Extended with another pergola, this large area is extremely private, capturing the morning sunshine and is sheltered from the afternoon heat
- 3 bedrooms all of good size with plenty of natural light & built in robes to each. Master bedroom overlooks patio and has direct access to main bathroom providing the illusion of an ensuite. A very functional bathroom with free standing shower, bath tub, oversized vanity and the convenience of a separate toilet
- Ceiling fans throughout and security screens to windows & doors provides maximum air flow all year round, as well as solar block tint to glass
- Double garage has painted finish floor and one auto door, with internal access directly into kitchen – step inside and feel at home
You will be surprised by the peace and quiet of this little street, as well as the absolute convenience of walking to the oval or just a few minutes’ drive to nearby Bunnings, Spotlight and café.
