22 Harvey Street, Russell Island QLD 4184

Welcome to 22 Harvey Street, your new residence nestled amongst bushland and sheltered behind a sunny courtyard, with a unique boat-locker letterbox peeping through the timber fence. There’s open parking bays on both sides of the property for boats and trailers; and a driveway to a long carport for two vehicles, through to a lock-up garage with a workbench and double-doors opening to the rear yard. The boundary fence also has a side-gate for overflow parking in the backyard. Enter via a secure gate to the landscaped North-facing front-yard with a cosy fire-pit on a lush lawn and green foliage all around. Before you, stands the 3-year-old Hardiplank house with many extras, occupying the 559m2 manicured block. Timber stairs take you into the enclosed deck with ceiling fans, windows, slat-screening and a security-door, to create the perfect sunroom. There’s side-access to the carport, which is convenient when arriving home with the shopping, or prepping the boat for a day on the water. The main entry is through the sliding doors beyond the sunroom, which spill into the kitchen and open-plan living, with the three bedrooms and family bathroom tucked away from view. Practical charcoal-grey plank flooring flows throughout the house, butting up to the dove-grey VJ-walls which continue all the way to the ceiling. A wood-fireplace sits in the corner of the lounge area on a tiled hearth, adding ambiance while it awaits the cooler months. Ceiling fans and air-con keep the space temperate, while downlights add to the mood. The glossy-white cabinetry is striking with the black fittings and matching appliances in the eat-in kitchen, which has room for a dining setting and hosts many features: • upper & lower cupboards with black hardware • black stone benchtops • gas cooktop & electric oven • double-sink with vogue white-on-white checkerboard-tile splashback • Westinghouse dishwasher • double-door pantry • huge fridge nook  • extra concealed storage behind sliders • servery to living Moving to the sleeping quarters, a large bedroom is placed either-side of the family bathroom, each with ceiling fans, built-ins and large windows. One faces North and the other, South. The sunlit bathroom is elegant with a dark timber wall-hung vanity over simple grey floor-tiles, an oval mirror, black tapware, loo and etched privacy decal (removable) on the shower screen. The wall tiles are very striking and ideal for easy-cleaning. A short hallway connects to the master-bedroom via a laundry with access to the back-deck, overlooking a natural forest. There’s also utility storage and a double linen-cupboard with sliding-doors concealed in the walls along the hall. The king-size master-bedroom has air-con, a ceiling fan, triple-sliding-door wardrobe and a barn-door to the fresh white-on-grey ensuite, with the same finishes as the family bathroom.
