Renovated Bulgarra Living with a Granny Flat on the Side
Set well back from the street on a generous 656sqm block, 17b Walcott Way brings together a beautifully updated three-bedroom home, a separate modern granny flat and outdoor spaces that make Karratha living easy.
Inside the main home, the renovation has created a calm, contemporary feel throughout. Timber-look flooring runs through the living areas and bedrooms, complemented by soft grey tones, crisp white trims, downlights and split aircons. The bedrooms are well presented with ceiling fans and built-in robes with mirrored doors.
The bathroom is a standout. Full-height tiling continues seamlessly from floor to wall, while a long floating vanity, mirrored shaving cabinets, frameless shower screen and dual shower heads give the space a sharp, modern finish. A separate toilet adds everyday practicality. The kitchen keeps things warm and functional with timber benchtops, sleek cabinetry, plenty of preparation space, a corner pantry and curved rangehood.
Then there's the granny flat.
Positioned separately from the main residence, it adds genuine flexibility to the property. With its own kitchenette, living and sleeping zones, split aircons, ceiling fan and stylish bathroom, it works beautifully for extended family, older children, visiting friends or simply as an independent retreat. Details including VJ-style panelling, black tapware, a rainfall showerhead, space-saving barn door and study nook give it plenty of personality of its own.
Between the two buildings sits a broad covered entertaining area overlooking the round in-ground pool. This presents an easy place to settle in as the Pilbara summer rolls around. The backyard is neat and low maintenance with established garden beds and useful shedding, while glimpses of the ranges add a peaceful outlook beyond the fence.
Out front, lawn and established gardens give the home plenty of street appeal and privacy. A long driveway, undercover carport and access toward the rear provide excellent parking and room for the toys.
For homebuyers, this is a home with options as life changes. For investors, the combination of an updated main residence and additional self-contained accommodation creates an interesting proposition in an established Bulgarra location.
