If 2022 is your year to enter the property market, renovate for lifestyle, or simply look forward to leaving the hustle and bustle behind for wide open spaces and a more relaxed pace of life without sacrificing convenience, this could be the one.
This spacious, solidly built Queenslander is believed to be approximately 80 years old and has been owned and enjoyed over many years by the one family since the grandparents purchased back in 1970, who also updated the Colorbond roof, fascia and gutters earlier in their ownership. Occupying a massive 1,770m2 parcel of land with a tree-lined creek running at the rear for privacy, tranquillity, and the sense that your land is even larger than it is.
With green lawns extending to all boundaries, this property presents like a blank canvas to extend or renovate if and when you are ready. The mostly original home has been maintained by the one owner so it’s perfectly comfortable and liveable as is.
Located minutes from shops, schools, healthcare and parks in the peaceful heart of semi-rural Walkerston, this property will provide you with many years of enjoyment no matter what stage of life you’re at.
Why we LOVE 23 Fadden Street…
-Outstanding potential! Use the original shed for storage while you plan the shed of your dreams (subject to council approval), design the space and garaging you desire on the existing ground floor – built on a concrete slab & fully powered with lighting & switches, along with an existing lockable storage room on the ground & a second toilet adjacent to the laundry. Upstairs enjoy the spacious, neat & tidy home or create a covered outdoor entertaining area (subject to council approval), the options here are limited only by your imagination.
-The quintessential high set Queenslander. You can’t beat a Queenslander for style, comfort, protection from the elements & excellent crossflow ventilation. Being high set with large array of windows every room in the house benefits from even the slightest whisper of a breeze. Featuring cladded exterior with trellis slatting to the front & rear & enclosed to the sides, the house offers dual car access to the front with double opening gates to park securely underneath. There’s also plenty of room on the property for additional off-street parking for extra cars, a boat, caravan etc. Two existing exterior timber staircases offer access to the home front & rear, plus the front veranda offers a quiet spot to sit & watch the world go by.
-Spacious, liveable layout, featuring 3 existing generous bedrooms, a sunroom, living room with 10ft high ceilings, separate dining room, kitchen & handy home office/study room, the home is spacious, comfortable & will accommodate those who work from home. The kitchen has been updated during earlier ownership & is well maintained with laminate cabinetry, linoleum floors, raked ceiling, laundry chute & standalone electric oven/stove. There’s ample storage & bench space too. Partially air-conditioned with added split systems, along with ceiling fans keep the home cool & comfortable.
-Refreshed bathroom features sliding glass door shower, toilet, single vanity with basin and built-in storage cupboard. The owners have even installed a laundry chute tucked neatly inside the kitchen directly to the internal laundry below, an underestimated convenience that we think should be included in every high set home!
Why we LOVE Walkerston…
-Relaxed semi-rural vibe. Walkerston is an ideal suburb when you’re seeking a relaxed semi-rural living environment. And yet you’re deceptively close to every convenience a busy family could need or want.
-More time to spend with the family. Whether you work in Mackay or the Mines, you won’t have far to travel each day, which means more time at home doing the things you love with the people you love.
-Conveniently located to amenities. Everything you need is just minutes from home including Walkerston Village with Woolworths, specialty stores, healthcare and 24hr fitness; playgrounds/parks; childcare and your choice of public or private primary schools.
-Dining out & takeaway choices. Numerous café and takeaway dining options are available 7 days a week, perfect for those nights when you feel like a break from cooking. Or why not enjoy an evening out at Wests Leagues Club or The Duke Hotel.
-If you love to water ski or jet ski make the most of a day on the water at nearby Kinchant Dam; swim, paddleboard and enjoy a picnic at the Pioneer River, or why not take a day trip further up the Pioneer Valley to picturesque Finch Hatton Gorge or Eungella.
