10 Paula Parade, Lamb Island, QLD, 4184, Australia

Remember that love song from the 60s?

Well, you’ll fall in love at first sight with this refurbished 1-bedroom beauty on Paula Parade.

Number 10 sits at the crest of Paula, just off Lucas Drive where the street gently dips to the water, catching the bay breeze and taking-in the vista of Straddie, to the East.

Modern by design, you’ll appreciate:
• Entertaining deck with water views
• Open plan living
• Island bench in kitchen
• Timber benchtops over white cabinetry
• Bathtub & separate shower
• Large windows with insect screens
• Ceiling fans
• Timber-look floors throughout
• Separate laundry with toilet
• Back-door to fully-fenced yard with two sheds

Coming through the gates, your heart skips a beat as you set eyes on this neat package, with a massive deck, manicured lawn and sunny water views. Step inside the sliding-door to the spacious living which is well-connected to the kitchen by the island-bench, linking it all together.

Timber benchtops are a nice change and bring warmth and character to the home. A breakfast bar is handy for homework or casual eating, while there’s room for a dining setting and lounge in the living area. The adjacent laundry, has a tub, storage and hosts the toilet, keeping it separate from the bathroom.

Ceiling fans in all rooms, lend a beachy vibe and the cool plank-flooring underfoot, is easy to keep clean and brings cohesion. The bedroom is large with picture windows overlooking the yard. The classic bathroom has a free-standing bath, separate shower and above-bench sink on a walnut vanity. Dark feature tiles in the shower and behind the bath, add a rich and textured backdrop to the relaxed environment.

Entertaining friends and family is easy with the indoors flowing to the large timber deck. With a bush outlook across the road and views of boats plying the bay, to the East, you’ll enjoy spending your mornings on the deck for breakfast; and evenings watching the dusk change the colour of the waterways, while chilling and experiencing nature at its best.

Looking outside, there’s more to explore.

Established gardens and a lush lawn provide a great space for kids and pets. Imagine, the water-play, cricket and rope-swings of your youth, coming alive for your children to relive as they play outside in the sub-tropical climate of Lamb Island?

Fruit trees border this 531m2 property, providing food and shade. The yard falls to the East and run-off flows to the sea, so no soggy, muddy boots here. There’s plenty of room for a veggie garden, chook run and more fruit trees for all-year produce.

A spacious shed on a concrete slab has shelving and is perfect for the artist, handyman or muso. Open the rustic doors for natural light and close them at day’s end, leaving your project in progress, ready for your return. A garden shed takes care of the mower, tools and toys and there’s a drying area for the washing.

A few more outdoor features to note:
• Low-maintenance Colorbond exterior
• Guttering
• Covered deck for all-year use
• Fully-fenced yard
• Established gardens
• Clothesline/drying area
• Clever double-sided stairs to yard
• Garden sheds
• Electric hot water
• Solar panels
• Low-set with few stairs to manage
• Double-gates for secure off-street parking
