Why we LOVE 55 Dutton Street Walkerston…
- The street appeal – Who doesn’t love a traditional Queenslander! The first thing you notice on arrival is the palm-fringed white picket fence and the broad veranda with screens to the front for privacy from the road (construction will soon commence on the Walkerston by-pass, due for completion 2023 – excellent capital growth potential)
- The space – If your goal in 2020 is to upsize to a bigger better home, look no further. All 4 bedrooms are double-sized with built-in robes and the open plan living area is huge. Stunning easy care polished hardwood timber floors flow throughout the home and the high ceilings add to the feeling of space and light
- The great outdoors – With its large undercover pergola overlooking the fully fenced built-in pool with wide pebblecrete surrounds (ample room for lounging by the pool) and those wonderful wraparound verandas, there are plenty of outdoor areas to enjoy, no matter what the weather. Enjoy a BBQ under the pergola with friends or some peaceful solitude with a good book and a cuppa on the veranda. If you’re feeling more active, gather the family for a game of cricket on the lawn. The fully fenced yard with lush tropical gardens serviced by bore water adds to the sense of being far from it all
- The modern kitchen, bathrooms & laundry – Renovated just 4 years ago, the kitchen, main bathroom, ensuite and laundry are modern contemporary in style and well appointed with plenty of storage and bench space. The kitchen has a great outlook over the pool too so you can keep a watchful eye over the kids
- The large powered shed with separate access – When you’re this close to Kinchant Dam and the Pioneer River, you’ll want somewhere to store your boat and/or other watercraft. A separate concrete driveway leads to the 10 x 10 x 3.6m high clearance powered shed, perfect for storing all your toys and ride-on mower as well as tinkering in the workshop
- The thermal comfort – With its wraparound verandas, high ceilings and louvres and shutters throughout, you will notice the gentle flow of cool prevailing breezes from the moment you enter. There’s also a/c and ceiling fans throughout
Why we LOVE Walkerston…
- The 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
- Convenient to all amenities – Everything you need is just minutes from home (so close you could easily walk or ride a bike), including Walkerston Village with Woolworths, specialty stores, healthcare and 24hr fitness; playgrounds/parks; childcare and your choice of public or private primary schools
- The rental return for investors – If you’re a property investor, this home is currently rented for $495 a week, making it an excellent return on investment
- 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
- Fun & water sports – If you love to water ski make the most of a day on the water at 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
