Cleared Clock

A block of land is now available at 13 Ruby Street, Russell Island. The most important question is how far to the commercial district. It is approximately 3 km from the shops, school, Ferry Terminal, etc. But remember, you are living on a reasonably small island, so nothing is too far. The block is cleared and ready to build upon. It is on a quiet street and has excellent potential.

The block has an eastern aspect and is 607m2, so there is ample room to design a precious gem of a home.

For boating enthusiasts, the boat ramp at Turtle Swamp Wetlands is only 2 km from your address. So pack an esky with sandwiches and cold drinks, launch the tinnie, and spend the day on the water. Then, bring your catch home, fire up the barbecue, and enjoy your seafood dinner. Heaven in paradise, no rat race to get there, and no queueing up at the ramp to get your trailer in the water.

If this appeals to you, Call Olivia now 0431122484.

Opportunities like this are rare, so don't miss out.

Seafood Diet- See it. Catch it. Eat it.

Heading south on Central Road, turn left onto Barcelona Terrace, then right onto Cowdery Drive. Turn onto Little Cove Road, and you will find 23 Little Cove Road at the intersection of The Avenue. It is a quaint parcel of land with 597m2. The council have approved plans for a home and garage with the footings in place for a one-bedroom home + study. A slab is already in place for a 3-bay shed with a bathroom, and the septic system is already installed.  But wait, there's more. The boat ramp is only .8 km from your driveway. Situated in a conservatively quiet part of the island, this corner block is the perfect place to build your family home. Save yourself the stress of designing house plans and jumping through hoops to get your building underway. It's all done for you.

The ferry terminal and central business area are 4.5 km away. The school bus services this district, assuring your child's safe arrival to and from the classroom. This mini estate constantly expands in population, building a community within the neighbourhood. Rewind the clock a few decades and take peace of mind knowing your children are safe on the quiet surrounding streets, playing in the fresh air and not sitting in front of a screen and developing Kyphotic deformity. We only saw rounded shoulders in the elderly back then, but digital technology is responsible for that now in the early years. Here's a thought: get the kids outside, walk the dog, kick a ball, and play backyard cricket. All this is possible in this bushy environment. 


Now I have planted the seed, can you see yourself living at 23 Little Cove Road?

If so, pick up the phone and call Chris on 0420 555 997 and arrange for an inspection.

Your kids will thank you for it later when they stand tall and strong.

Shopping is a breeze on the island, with a short drive of less than 5 km to the shops, including cafes, shops, RSL, Bowls Club facilities, tennis courts, pickleball, Super IGA, Medical Facilities, an art Gallery, Primary School, a pool, and the ferry terminal.

If you are a fisherman, the jetties on Rusell Island attract bream and trevally, to name but a few. Don't forget the abundance of crabs and the occasional jewfish.

How good will you feel as the hunter and gatherer bringing home fresh seafood for dinner?

Don't just think about this; call Amy NOW on 0421 504 901 to view this prime piece of real estate and start your dream of a family home.

Home amonst the gumtrees

This tidy, well-planned home has just come on the market. The three-bedroom, two-bath dwelling is a must-see.

It is close to all facilities, i.e., Iga, School, Pool, and Ferry Terminal. Imagine coming home in the heat of the day or the rain and not having to get out of the car to arrive dry under the carport. I don't know of many homes on the island that have an electric gate, but this is a game changer. Push a button and Open Sesame.

A ramp leads you into your home from the concrete carport, helping you transport the shopping trolley into the house for easy access.

Once inside, the design does not disappoint. The laundry is spacious and leads into the hub of the home. The kitchen has an impressive breakfast bar incorporated into the dining area. A large walk-in pantry will thrill any chef, as will a gas oven with rangehood and the plumbed water filter at the sink. After the feast, there is no need to wash up; the dishwasher is ready, willing, and able.

When the dishes have been sorted, you can leave the machines to clean up while you watch your favourite show in the lounge room, totally separate from the domestics of home life. The roomy living area can easily accommodate a full-length lounge suite and turn your space into a theatre room.

The family bathroom is next to the laundry and has a bath/shower, vanity, heat lamps, and a separate toilet.

The main bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and an ensuite with shower, vanity, and toilet. The second bedroom could be an office, study, or craft room, and the third has built-ins.

The air-conditioner in the kitchen is powerful and cools the whole house.

The easy-care garden will leave you plenty of time for entertaining on the front-covered deck, a perfect place to sit with friends and enjoy the sea Breeze (Pun intended.) But if that fails, there is a ceiling fan if it is a still day.

The yard is fully fenced for safety if you have small children, grandchildren and/or pets.

Features:

Automatic driveway gate.
Large garden shed.
Two small utility sheds.
Large storage cupboard in the living room.

Don't let this opportunity pass you by. At this price, it is a good entry-level for first-time homeowners or retirees looking to downsize.

So call Olivia on 0431122484  and book an inspection.

You'll never, never know if you never, never show.

Free sea Breeze

This baby is only one year old but looks like it was designed for the millennium.

From the minute you press the remote control on the internal garage door from the comfort of your car, the roller door magically opens, saying welcome home. Whether it is raining, stinking hot, or pitch-black dark, you are safe as soon as you step out of your car. (BTW the laundry is conveniently situated in the spacious garage.)

Now that you are safe inside your home, the internal door leads you into the hall, where all your rooms are easily accessible.

The master bedroom is proudly placed at the front of your home, close to the main entrance. With built-in robes, an Air Conditioner, and a fan, it lacks nothing. The communal bathroom services all bedrooms and features a shower, vanity, and toilet.

All bedrooms have built-ins, including what could be an office or study, and the timber cladding flooring throughout gives the neutral-coloured decor a warm feel.

The hallway opens into the living area, where the ceiling fans and reverse-cycle Air Conditioning keep you thermostatically comfortable no matter the weather.

Imagine the dinner parties or family get-togethers you will host in the modern kitchen. It has a dishwasher and space for a large fridge and microwave nook. Strategically, the pantry is close at hand. The under-bench stove with glass-top cooker and rangehood will turn even a novice into a chef.

Features:

Breakfast bar.
Hall cupboard linen press.
Three downlights for mood lighting over the breakfast bar.
Fully fenced with colourbond panels.
Two ceiling fans plus A/C in the living room.

A covered back patio at the rear of the home could easily be extended into a protected entertainment area for an outdoor party room.

If this has whet your whistle, call Olivia on 0431122484 

Adding the party room onto the back deck for Christmas wouldn't take much.

I met the neighbours today, and they are lovely. Invite them to your first celebration on Centre Road. Friends who play together stay together.

Your home could be the centre of your universe

A deceased estate will be auctioned very soon at 43 Blue Bay Crescent. This is a great deal and won't last long.

This 2-bedroom home has the potential for dual living, adding another income. Real estate's most famous catchphrase is location, location, location. The dwelling is perched high on the block, which is 911 M2 and has a north-easterly aspect. The water views will blow your mind.

In our honest appraisal, the previous uninvited tenants (white ants) have been evicted, and the resurrection can begin.

The spectacular uninterrupted ocean views expand from Dunich on North Stradbroke to Peel Island, and between the two, the clear white sands of Morton Island's famous dunes can be seen in the distance. Macleay Island has attracted many investors for its quiet island life. There are no main roads on Perulpa Island and very little traffic, so the only sound you are likely to hear are fishermen in their tinnies out catching their dinner or families enjoying the bay's calm waters in their sailboats and jetskies.

You will not only catch a breeze from the bay but also catch abundant fish for the table from your backyard. It is so close to the water that you can fish from your deck chair as the tide rolls in. A bell attached to the end of your rod would be useful because you will be engrossed with the sensational view and forget what you are doing.

Value for money is not a cliche but a reality. You will likely pick up this once-in-a-lifetime bargain for a song at the auction.

I can't honestly paint a pretty picture of 43 Blue Bay Cresent's current state, but I can alert you to its superfluous potential. The land alone is worth a small fortune.

Currently, on the ground floor, there is the laundry, bathroom with shower, bath, vanity, a small anteroom, and a spacious room with a kitchen bench and sink. Along the length at the rear of the home on the lower floor is a closed-in verandah.

The internal timber stairs with rails and a gate for safety lead to the top floor, which has an expansive open-plan living area. Two bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are off the lounge room. Again, the verandah with sea views duplicates the same space as the lower floor.

This is the perfect home for a retired handyman. Buy it for a steal and add value to your investment with innovative remodelling.

But wait, there's more.

Features:

Dual access to property.
Fully fenced.
Two fans to keep you cool in the living area.
Two Garden sheds.
Hitching rails at the water's edge.
Ornamental lights at the top of the stairs.
Tiled floors.

So, now you have some inspiration. What are you waiting for? Call Amy NOW. 0456 843 217

By the way, did I mention it was close to the golf club?

Deceased Estate - Absolute Waterfront

A three-bedroom, two-bathroom highset home has just come on the market in one of the most sought-after addresses on Russell. 37 Canaipa Point Drive has breathtaking water views from almost every window. This 23-year-old home is positioned in one of the best locations on the island. And at this price, it would be hard to find something better.

Access is up a flight of stairs to the verandah, which wraps around the northeastern side of the house. That is where the magic happens. (but more about that later.)   

The home features three bedrooms, an Ensuite to the main bedroom, an open-plan lounge and dining area, with an all-electric kitchen. The massive timber deck on the top floor leads off the kitchen and is perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining.

With a home of this calibre and such a welcoming outdoor area, Christmas could be at your new home this year. It is a fantastic space that could easily accommodate thirty people or more and has the most spectacular outlook. Imagine your family and friends sitting around the table, enjoying the feast and celebrating the festivities. However, the 180* ocean vista could cause a slight problem; you may have to toss a coin to see who sits with their back to the view. 

The bedrooms are all off the hallway and are spacious, with built-in robes and ceiling fans. The bathroom has a shower, vanity, and toilet. It is so huge that it conveniently doubles as the laundry. There is no excuse for clothes dropped on the floor; they go straight into the washing machine. You could also build a new laundry downstairs (for easy access to the clothesline) and install a spa bath with the extra room. Still worried about the clothes on the floor??? Problem solved; add a dirty clothes chute connected to the laundry directly below. Simple.

Features:

Heat lights in bathrooms
Air-con + ceiling fans in the living area
Massive entertainment deck 
180* water views
Room for two cars +boat and trailer under the house
Curtains and fixtures included
Polished timber floors throughout
New electric hot water system

Okay, let's talk about what's underneath this beautiful home. There is a lockable storage shed in one corner, and the rest can house two cars, a small caravan, and a boat. Yes, it is that big. It is legal height and can be used to build a workshop or motel-style room with an ensuite for guests or maybe a teenage retreat. But wait, there's more. You won't have to sacrifice any of the garage space, either. The possibilities are endless as to how you utilise this gift of space.

If you procrastinate, you will miss this opportunity. The first viewer will snap up this outstanding home in a heartbeat. The interior design is superb, but the icing on the cake is the impressive ocean views.

Don't delay. Call Olivia NOW for an inspection.

See you for Christmas dinner, LOL.

One of the best locations on Russell Island

This sweet deal has just come on the market. Previously used as a holiday retreat, it is ready and waiting for a loving family to call it home.

From the carport, the convenient ramp (no stairs) leads to an expansive timber deck at the rear of the house. The floor plan is simple but practical. The L-shaped kitchen, dining, and lounge offer a cosy family feeling. Two bedrooms with ceiling fans are off the lounge room. The bathroom consists of a shower, vanity, and toilet.

Dazzle your friends with culinary surprises when you cook up a storm in the modern kitchen and entertain on the spacious back deck. The kitchen window could easily be transformed into a serving hatch for outdoor entertaining on the deck, creating a seamless flow from cooking to delivering meals to your family and guests.

The 569m2 backs onto old farmland. With a northerly aspect, the view from the deck of the rural-like greenery gives the impression that you are on the family farm. Complete with your four-legged neighbour. At present, a horse wanders his yard following the shade as the weather warms up. He loves attention and probably the odd carrot.

If you want a vegetable patch, there is plenty of room to grow fresh produce and a 3 x 3 garden shed to store your tools, mower, etc.

Features:

Air conditioning plus a ceiling fan in the living space.
Sky blue painted interior walls feature in the home, giving it a coastal feel.
Timber look flooring throughout.
Dishwasher.
Walking distance to the RSL.

This is priced to sell, so call Chris on 0420 555 997 NOW for an inspection.

Caress Carissa, you will love it.

A stylish 2-year-old two-bedroom plus study home has just come onto the market on Russell Island, ideally located a stone's throw from the Bowling Club. Enjoy a game of bowls, dine in the family restaurant, and celebrate with a cold drink. There is no need for a taxi. The walk home only takes five minutes. Russell Island Dog Park, where your furbaby can run free with his play dates, is only a block away.

If you like Mahjong, you can walk across the road to the community hall for a game every Friday morning.

The 582m2 property has a quaint white picket fence in front of the home, making it a secure place for your children and pets to play. The backyard is also fully fenced and landscaped, requiring minimal maintenance to keep it looking great all year round.

The short 2.5 km drive to the ferry terminal makes shopping at IGA a breeze. Upon returning with your purchases, flick the remote to open your garage door and drive straight in. Unload the car, walk through the laundry, and say, "Honey, I'm home."

The exterior's white and black palette has been replicated in the interior. The bright kitchen has ample prep and storage space, room for a large fridge, and has a dishwasher, which is every chef's dream. The cleverly designed floor plan ensures you miss no family conversations while preparing meals.

Down the hall are the three bedrooms with built-in robes, a bathroom with shower, vanity, full-size bath, and separate toilet. The surprise is that when you walk into the master suite, it is huge. But wait, there's more. Enter the walk-in closet and continue into the ensuite. This is a home to be proud of. 

The expansive back deck gives plenty of space for entertaining your family and friends and has a ceiling fan to beat the heat.

Laundry is a must for everyone, but no one wants to see your "smalls" on the line in the backyard. A handy pull-out line has been discretely hidden along the fence beside the garage—out of sight, out of mind. 

Features:

Airconditioned plus fans in the loungeroom/dining room.
Storage cupboard in the living area.
Linen press in the hall.
Incredible back deck for entertaining.

Call Chris on 0420 555 997 NOW for an inspection if this appeals to you.

Every girl dreams of a home with a white picket fence

Reluctant sale by local vendors who built this classic coastal Stroud residence as their forever home, in 2020 with six years’ builder construction warranty remaining. Nothing’s excluded in this build, designed by renowned interior decorator, who knows how to pack in the wow factor.

Sitting on the high-side of Udara Drive, at the corner of Sentosa Terrace, you can’t miss this exceptional driftwood grey and seafoam Hardiplank property with its undeniable, kerbside appeal. This East-facing 784m2 block catches the sea-breeze and you’re just a few paces from Perulpa Bay, lapping at the end of the no-through road, where you can enjoy kayaking, fishing and nature-gazing, all year. 

Manicured gardens, privacy screens, rambling vines over white-washed arbours and a neat pebble-mix driveway, greet you as you wander toward the house. But wait! Stroll the grounds before you enter, taking in the bountiful fruit trees, colourful shrubs, hedge ‘fence’, plus the herb and veggie gardens, all gracing the lush lawn. Note the bonus, remote-control lock-up garage on a concrete slab, fully-lined with storage, providing direct access to the house, via an internal security door.

Taking the wide entry, you’ll arrive at a vestibule which splits this completely level single-storey home, into two functional wings—perfect for easy shared-living, a growing family, or house-guests. The living and master suite is to the right and further bedrooms with casual living, to the left. 

Presenting as a three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence with two living areas, you’ll be impressed by the spacious and sun-kissed, airy rooms. Floor-to-ceiling windows, lofty 3-metre ceilings with fans and beachy-blonde vinyl floors, create a sense of calm in the living area, while the bedrooms all have a plush grey carpet. Thoughtful additions like LED lighting, USB outlets and abundant power-points make for easy technology, while double blinds (filter and blackout) adorn most windows, offering passive temperature control in favour of air-con.

RIGHT WING
A functional kitchen with a large island takes centre-stage, flanking the dining and living zones which both flow to the outdoor covered gazebo with timber deck, overlooking your private saltwater pool. Imagine the summer spent entirely outdoors with carefree BBQ meals, perfumed retreat spaces and late-night dips? Add the sounds of children laughing, birdsong and popping of champagne corks and you’ll understand the attraction of this property.

The kitchen layout is perfect for easy prep and cooking, with a walk-in pantry tucked-up one end, near the F&P fridge (negotiable); the cooking zone hugs the back wall with plenty of drawers for storage, LED task-lighting, a 5-burner gas cooktop and electric oven; and cleaning is constrained to the island with its hidden bins, sink and dishwasher. There’s seating for four or more along the 2.5-metre breakfast bar, with bespoke overhead lighting to illuminate the workspaces. Stone benchtops, soft-close drawers and a microwave nook, complete the picture.

The dining area easily accommodates an 8-seater table and chairs, with a view to the gardens and sparkling pool, making mealtimes most enjoyable. The lounge-room, framed with picture windows, is bathed in natural light and is very inviting for conversation, to rest or read a book. The adjoining deck with Mediterranean-inspired arbour, hosts a golden trumpet vine in summer and an edible grape, in winter. The alfresco vibe and movement from the foliage reminds you to get up and breathe-in the salt-air and do something physical.

At the rear, rests the king-size master suite with a large ensuite, floaty romantic sheers over the window treatments and a walk-in robe, complete with a window for extra light to find what to wear. This tranquil zone is ideal for relaxation and sleep, with a simple grey-and-white palette that repeats throughout, bringing a 5-star hotel feel. A rain-head and hand-held hose add a spa quality to the single glass-pane shower recess, with a large wall-mounted vanity floating over the cool tiles and a streamlined flush-back toilet. Floor-to-ceiling tiles line the walls adding a luxurious touch and an oversized window floods it with light.

THE LEFT WING
Wander back to the foyer and you’ll reach the left wing, via a separate living area/media room, which is central to the bathroom and adjoining bedrooms. Both rooms are queen-sized with large windows and built-ins, repeating the grey-on-white theme with textured carpets underfoot and ceiling fans and LED downlights, overhead. The vibrant greens of the garden seep indoors and provide a tropical feel.  The shared bathroom has a rain shower, vanity and loo. Sunlight bathes it in warmth and reflects the clean lines of the tiles while exposing a backdrop of lush green. A massive laundry (used as an art studio) adjoins the bathroom, with a sliding glass-door for light and access to the drying area, Fuji-clean septic system and pool pump. A built-in spans the entire back wall for bulky storage and linen. The septic display panel is also in the laundry for easy monitoring.

Some of the features include:
•	4-years’ young (Builders Warranty remains for another 6 years)
•	Narellan saltwater in-ground pool (robotic cleaner included) 
•	Instantaneous gas hot-water
•	Solar (6.6 kW)

Local shops, sports clubs, school, parks and the active community centres are all close-by. Medical facilities, dentist, child care and car maintenance are all available on Macleay Island, with the mainland a scenic 18-minute ferry commute.

If you’ve been chasing a coastal home with a resort feel, 21 Udara Drive ticks all the boxes and more.

Stunning Family Home on Expansive 1,062m² Block

This quintessential slightly highest Queenslander has just come on the market and is only a 10-minute walk to the school and less than 1 km from the jetty, and shops. It was built in 1889, and relocated to Russell Island from Cleveland in ????  With 135 years of inhabitance, think of the history of this gorgeous 3-bedroom home. If only the walls could talk.

After serving its purpose for many years it was renovated to replicate the original internal style with ornate room dividers and fretwork. The interior has been freshly painted and looks stunning.

From the front foyer, a small bedroom/office looks onto the front garden, and then on either side of the impressively wide hallway are two large bedrooms with ornate fretwork in the head jamb above the doors. A long sleepout runs almost the length of the house with access to the bathroom, with a large walk-in shower, toilet and vanity.

The hallway expands into an L-shape open plan lounge, kitchen and dining area. But what will impress you the most are the incredibly high ceilings, allowing the summer heat to rise.

It has all the charm of the original 19th-century character but with the practicality of modern-day conveniences. The kitchen offers a nook for a large fridge, glass cooktop, pantry, dishwasher, and abundant shelving and drawers with ample bench space for prepping meals.

Imagine your guests at the housewarming:  While you're plating up, hubby's mixing drinks at the bar, Grandma's reading a story to the kids in the loungeroom, the girls are at the table listening through the French Doors to Grandpa telling a joke to the men on the back verandah. No one misses out on the punchline.

The north-facing back deck is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the Bay breeze without the scorching sun. Stairs from the deck, lead down to the laundry and back garden with established shade trees and a vege plot. To keep the yard tidy from mowers etc, a small garden shed is tucked away behind the laundry. The large 711m2 block is fully fenced with plenty of room for playtime with the kids or pets. The workshop under the verandah for the handyman, is protected from all weather.

The concrete driveway has a carport attached to the house.

FEATURES:

Tounge and groove walls and ceilings.
Picture rails for paintings.
Polished hoop pine flooring.
Timber fretwork above the bedroom doors.
Decorative asymmetrical timber hall/loungeroom divider.
Room for an 8-seater dining table.
Federation pedestal archway.
Fans in bedrooms.
Air con in the main living area.

Ciao. Benvenuto nella tua nuova casa.

Hello. Welcome to your new home. A little piece of Italy on Naples Drive. This 546m2 block has a solid high-set home that takes advantage of all aspects and is waiting for you,

From the succulent cactus garden are the stairs that lead to the entrance. The minute you step through the front door home, you will be hit with the most stunning view of North Stradbroke Island, completely filling the 9-foot glass sliding doors leading onto the full-length deck. Obviously facing east, it captures the sunrise 356 days of the year. And who would want to miss one of them? Each one individual and each one spectacular. Imagine sitting on the deck in your favourite comfy chair and listening to the peaceful sounds of nature, watching as the sun slowly smiles at you. Your new Mantra will be, "I am grateful to live with such beauty." What a way to start your day.

That's the morning taken care of, later in the day, it is an ideal sundeck to top up your tan, and after the sun slides further to the west, take advantage of the cool breeze and the shade to finish reading your book.

The entire upper floor is open-plan living, incorporating the lounge, dining, and kitchen. Whether you sit at the breakfast bar, dining table, or lounge, you can choose to watch the TV or drift into another world and watch the jetskis and sailboats on the water through the wide 9-foot glass windows.

Taking the internal timber staircase to the lower level, you are greeted with two bedrooms and a full laundry room with access to the back deck. The spacious bathroom has a separate shower, toilet, and deep bath, perfect for a long, relaxing soak with bubbles in the tub and the glass. Light the candles, lay back, and listen to "That's Amore" on the stereo.

The main bedroom has a large built-in wardrobe that utilises the stairwell space, and there is plenty of room in the second bedroom to build another wardrobe. Both bedrooms are far enough away to allow for privacy.

The backyard has banana plants that will produce abundant fruit, and there is plenty of room for a vegetable garden. Rainwater is collected; however, the tanks need some TLC to bring them back to life. 

Make a lifestyle change. With the upsurge of property prices on the mainland, it makes sense to come to the South Morton Bay Islands for your forever home. Lateral thinkers have researched and found that now is the time to invest in SMBI. Russell Island is the piece of paradise everyone is looking for. We have a Super IGA, Pharmacy, Library, Bottle Shop, State school, Swimming Pool, cafes, eateries, many sporting fields and clubs. Of course, we also all emergency services.

Living on an island isn't as isolated as you might think.  Access to the mainland takes 20 minutes on the ferry, and the 30-minute ride to the interconnecting islands is free.  The ferry terminal is approx. 2 km from your home, where your comfortable air-conditioned transport awaits you.

Other features:

Fully-screened.
Hardwood floors.
Full concrete driveway.
Over-spec engineering (for additional building)
Room on ground level for the storage of mowers and garden equipment.
Vehicle barge to and from the mainland.
Great community atmosphere.

This prime piece of real estate won't be around for long. Some smart investor will snap it up. Will it be you?

Arrivederci e buona fortuna.

Molto Bona Vista

This is one of the neatest homes I have seen lately on Russell Island. Situated next to a Nature Reserve, in a quiet section of the Island with a Southeastern aspect, built on 597m2, 300mt from the water's edge, and only moments from the boat ramp, this highest three-bedroom home has family appeal.

Upstairs:

The timber stairs at the front of the property lead to a tidy porch with a screened safety landing opening into the entry. The home has impressive polished timber flooring throughout, and the combined lounge/dining/kitchen means cooking and entertaining run seamlessly. Being highest, it catches the sea breeze during the summer, and reverse-cycle air conditioning guarantees warmth for the chilly mornings in winter.

The incredibly high ceilings on the top floor give the impression of spaciousness. All bedrooms have built-in robes, A/c and fans. The third bedroom is perfect for a study or home office.

Opposite the large linen press in the hallway is a space-smart shelving area suitable for a Wall of Fame for sporting trophies or ideal for a Book Nook where any ardent reader would love to display their library. The cleverly designed bathroom has a shower, toilet, and vanity, which services the bedrooms upstairs.

The kitchen has plenty of bench space and crips clean cabinetry, complete with an oversized gas chef-style oven and dishwasher. The large walk-in pantry is awesome, so there is a place for everything, and everything will be in its place. "Tidy kitchen = no friction." There is also plenty of room for a double fridge.

The generously sized laundry is not just a workspace; it is a space you will want to work in. The dark floor tiles, white wall tiles, and clean white storage area create a peaceful calmness as you walk through to the extensive back verandah.

The stylish pull-down blinds double as a screen for the western sun and also for protection from the bities in summer. You will be blown away by what you see as the main attraction in the backyard.

Back Garden:

Sitting on a raised timber deck in the backyard is a full-sized plumbed-in therapeutic spa complete with a Japanese-style gazebo to protect you from the sun, cool breezes, and curious neighbours. Think how delicious it will be after a hard day at work, a long day shopping on the mainland, or a big day on the water catching fresh seafood for dinner to come home and relax with bubbles in your hand and in the warm spa.

The garden itself is entirely (almost) maintenance-free. With a small patch of grass to mow (10 minutes), enough to keep the dog happy, the rest of the small area is terraced with timber decking and has flowering plants and fruit trees with a large avocado tree. If you have a green thumb, this area is perfect for a vegetable garden. There is nothing like homegrown and organic produce.

Bottom story:

Under the verandah is a sizeable semi-closed-in area suitable for a gym. It is out of the sun and out of the weather.

Step through the door and under the top floor; the footprint of the home is open to your imagination. It could be completed as an entertainment area or a dream workspace for the handyman (or woman). There is already a small closed area for a guest bedroom. A second bathroom with a shower, toilet, and vanity is already in place, and a small laundry with plumbing for a kitchenette has been started, so why not make this a teenage retreat or accommodation for visitors or turn this space into a Granny flat or BnB for a second income.

Front Yard:

The tiled driveway has secure parking under the house for your car. There is enough room for the boat beside the side fence and a second car space near the footpath. The maintenance-free gardening continues.

Features:

Heated towel rails in the top bathroom.

A/c can be installed on the ground floor if required.

Breakfast bar in the kitchen.

The water filter is plumbed into the kitchen sink.

Small storage nook under the breakfast bar.

Three extended wall shelves above the bench in the kitchen.

Outside folding wall clothesline.

Outdoor shower for after the spa.

Fully fenced. Animal and child-friendly.

A/c and fans throughout the home.

A welcome abundance of electric lighting in the living area.

The insulation for the top floor is in the ceiling of the garage.

A hidden safe has been concreted into the floor in the garage.

Security sensor lights.

This really is a lovely home with not a lot needed to add your touch to make it yours.

Spa Heaven

Have you ever wanted to live on an island without cars, fuel bills, or road rage? Have I got a deal for you?

I have just inspected a two-bedroom starter home on Karragarra Island. I say starter home because it will be on the lower end of the real estate scale, but it has such potential. The address is only one street away from the water channel, which means a 1 km walk to the ferry terminal to the islands and the mainland.

This is a WIWO deal. When you buy the house, you get everything included. You have possibly four choices as the owner. 1) Leave it as it is and use it as your holiday home. 2) Continue renovating and add value to an existing dwelling, 3) spruce it up and become a landlord, or 4) Raise it to the ground and build your dream home. It is all up to you and your imagination.

It is positioned in a quiet street on the island. (Let's face it: with little traffic, everywhere is quiet.) The neighbourhood is friendly and safe for the kids to ride their bikes like they used to before helicopter parents had to watch out for speeding cars.

It is constructed of concrete sheeting and has a basic but workable floor plan. ATM has two bedrooms, a shower room with vanity, a separate toilet, and a combined lounge and dining area. The start of a kitchen is in progress. A covered back area is suitable for the laundry, and the backyard has plenty of room for a vegetable garden or fruit trees.

The main bedroom has double French doors leading onto a covered verandah along the front of the house facing the East. Both bedrooms could be extended onto this space to allow more room for built-in robes.

There is no garage as such, but there is enough room to erect a carport in the front yard, accessed through double gates.

Features:

Fully fenced.

Fans and A/c in lounge room/dining and B.1.

Large workspace under cover behind the home.

Timber flooring throughout.

Solar panels on the roof.

Rainwater tank.

If renovation is the plan, knock down the walls and convert the wet rooms into a large bathroom, including the bath.

This is your best opportunity to enter the housing market. Don't procrastinate; phone for an inspection.

Call Chris McGregor on 0420 555 997. NOW!

Open the treasure chest and see what happens.

Perched on an elevated block on the shores of The Esplanade, Karragarra Island, this partially fenced prize piece of paradise has just come on the market. With the real estate market at an all-time high, these parcels of land are becoming scarce. This exclusive and rare opportunity to purchase such an extraordinary north-facing block won't last long. Especially one with breathtaking waterfront views. The flotilla of boats, ferries passing and yachts in the bay.

Witnessing the peaceful passing water traffic from your balcony would be the best way to start your day.

With 531 M2 to play with, that is ample room to build your forever home. With the elevation, even a low-set home would have a spectacular view. But with two stories? The possibilities are endless. A steep driveway leads up to the flat, level area for the house pad. You will be so high in the clouds that any passing traffic will not be heard. Tranquillity and serenity, what more could you ask for?

As I said before, these opportunities are becoming scarce, and when waterfront blocks are all sold, there will be no more.

Call Chris McGregor on 0420 555 997 on and stake your claim now.

Become King of your own mountain.

"KingKarra." That has a nice ring to it for the name of your new home.

King of the mountain

There is a Boat House in Maroochydore and one in Barbados, but have you seen the Boat House on Russell Island? This incredible property has just been listed, and I feel it won't be on the market for long. Someone will snap it up after the first inspection. I fell in love with it at first sight.

The two-bedroom house has a nautical theme, hence the plaque on the front of this beautiful home: "The Boat House."

This is an unusually long residential block. The main entrance is in Beth St., but there is also car access to an oversized lock-up garage from West St. The house is positioned on the front of the block, taking advantage of the water views and glorious sunrises.

The House:

The front welcome deck faces West and overlooks the green-manicured fields of Jackson Oval Cricket Ground and views of Long Island. Upon entry, you are immediately in the main living area, which comprises a combined lounge and dining room with bifold windows and glass entrance doors. The picturesque water views are as if low tide doesn't exist. Three timber steps take you into the cleverly designed petite kitchen. Then, into a short hallway leading to the second bedroom, bathroom, laundry and rear entrance door.

The second bedroom, which is on the lower level, has a ceiling fan, a built-in wardrobe, a picture window overlooking the spacious back garden, and a glass door leading onto a large timber verandah.  

The bathroom has a shower, vanity, and toilet, with the linen press in the hall. Everything is compact in this home, but think of the extra free time you have to enjoy island life with minimal cleaning. 

Off the lounge room, the main bedroom has a fixed corner study bench under bifold windows, perfect for authors, artists, or those who still correspond with handwritten letters. You know, paper, pen, envelope, and a stamp? It has room for a queen-sized bed and an armoire. Glass French doors open onto the expansive back timber deck, which extends from the rear of the house into the garden.

The Garden:

Definitely, with a Balinese influence, this unusually long strip of land has many "rooms." Nothing is in a straight line, especially the winding concrete path broken up with rustic sleepers leading you to the garage. And as you weave through the vegetation, you could have a "reading nook." Or a "potting station" for the green thumb. Or a meditation spot for your "happy place.' Or what about a lap pool? To keep fit and healthy and to cool off in the heat of our summers. There is still plenty of free space waiting for your inspiration.

Possible Income Boost:

Erect a carport at the West St entrance for a small island car and convert the garage into a granny flat or Air BnB. Everyone thinks they have enough to retire on, but a little more would make life "Oh so sweet."

Features:

A/C and fans in lounge/dining. (A/C carries into the main bedroom.)

Timber flooring throughout.

The raked ceiling in the living area and kitchen continues in the main bedroom.

The kitchen is small but very practical. It has plenty of bench space, a bench cooktop, and an under-bench oven and grill.

The back door is fitted with a pet flap.

Fully fenced backyard.

Storage room in lock-up garage.

Call Chris McGregor on 0420 555 997 now for that inspection.

I promise you won't be disappointed.

Boat House on Beth

As far as peaceful house blocks go, this one takes the cake. Situated in a very quiet Cul-de-sac off Curlew Street, it is the perfect place to build a home. With 1024 sqM to play with, gently sloping to the left of the block, this stunning, uniquely shaped lot will whet the whistle of any budding house designer.  The property is fenced on three sides leaving the front open for decision.

The existing homes on this street are tastefully designed to take full advantage of the bush setting. Your personally designed dwelling will fit like a glove with the other four (fingers) neighbour's homes.

I hope you like Mangoes. The mature Mangoe trees are begging for you to make smoothies and chutneys for the local markets. This is a good little income stream for the retired.

The school is just a short walk and the jetty and shops are a little over 2 km away.

For the boaties, water entry is a mere 200mts away.

Lawn bowls and Golf clubs are also close by.

This really is a prize piece of real estate. Don't hesitate.
