48 Admiral Street, Lockyer WA 6330

An extensive refurbishment and modernisation project has completely transformed this delightful 1950's cottage into a desirable, up-to-date family home.

On its long list of attributes is its location just five minutes' drive from town, with easy access to a supermarket and directly opposite an excellent primary school.

The home sits near the front of its 834sqm block, with an enclosed back yard and side gates for secure parking of the caravan and trailer, and two sheds for tools and gardening equipment.

Smartly clad in colorbond, its neat facade gives an indication of the calibre of the building inside.

Astute preservation of original timber floors nod to the home's vintage, while the layout has been modified to create a practical flow and a choice of living spaces.

The expert transformation has included new plumbing, electrics, removal of all asbestos and ceiling and wall insulation.
At the front is a generous sun-room or playroom with a wide entrance into the air-conditioned lounge. This is a comfortable room adjoining the dining area and with the new ivory kitchen to one side.

With a dishwasher, wall oven and gas cook-top, the kitchen features sleek cabinetry with grey benches set off with contemporary grey wall tiling and a white subway splash-back.

For outdoor living all year round, the rear deck is a delight. It has a sink and fitted kitchen cabinetry, a wood heater and ample space for the barbecue, pizza oven and a family-sized dining table as well as an outdoor lounge.

Built-in robes and plush carpets are in all three bedrooms, two of which are king sized and the other a big double.

A well-appointed wet area at the back of the house contains the laundry with fitted cabinetry and an adjacent bathroom with a new bath, walk-in shower and vanity. Oversized grey floor tiles flow throughout these areas and the separate toilet.

Sunblinds are twinned with block-out blinds at living room and bedroom windows, and the place is finished with fresh decor, new LED lighting and security window screens.

An ideal property for first home buyers or rental investors, this home is realistically priced and will be appreciated for its modern design with a character edge, its big block and excellent location near all amenities.
