Last Listing description (January 2024)

Good luck finding another home like this in town!

Not even 200m from Swansea Channel's sparkling aqua and turquoise water, the entry to Lake Macquarie is as beautiful as ever, with its stunning white sand island starring!

You'll be keen to get your boat out and about, and with your choice of 3 local boat ramps there's plenty of ways to head out to sea and or explore The Lake for a great day's fishing.

When you've had enough of being out on the water, or at the beach, there's plenty of places to enjoy a beverage or two, and a meal out, with some entertainment too, and it's all within easy strolling distance of home!

Walk to your choice of renovated club or pub venues, with Swansea RSL, Workers Club and Hotel, and a stack of coffee/cafe options, all just minutes away.

Everything from supermarkets, to doctors, are on tap, so you will not have any complaints with the location that's for sure!

We can guarantee you won't have any complaints about the seriously impressive shed either.

Looking like it's brand new and it came straight off acreage, this is a shed that will make you drool!

Made to take all the toys from a full height caravan, fishing boat, 2 big 4 wheel drives, still with plenty of room for a mighty workshop, and mezzanine storage upstairs.

Our owner planned to sleep out here and bunk down with his mates when they were heading off for a road trip!

Drive thru to a great rear yard, you can wash off your toys away from the driveway, dump your more ugly gear out the back, out of sight, and grow a few veggies and fruit trees, with plenty of North Easterly sun streaming in, it's the perfect backyard aspect!

If you can drag yourself away from the shed, which will be hard, you'll discover a very much low maintenance, no fuss, but extreme quality home and grounds.

Extensively concreted, so our owner could get vehicles in and out easily, with wide side drive access.

Our owner was focused on enjoying being out and about, and traveling, with adventures on his mind, he didn't want the hassle of lawn mowing and gardening, so he spent a bomb on concreting, so he wouldn't have to waste time and money on lawn maintenance.

When it came to the house, our owner loved the cottage charm, with its quality hardwood frame and high ceilings, but he hated every bit of old, cruddy, not working elements of an old house.

Planning to retire here himself, he wanted a home, grounds and shed that were perfect, that wouldn't need constant or ongoing attention.

He'd seen plenty of cheap Dulux overhaul makeovers around the traps and he didn't want a bar of them.

Fussy as, he stripped this old girl bare, he cleaned every crevice and not only re-lined her inside and out, but he went overboard and covered her in plywood before adding exterior cladding.

No cockroach or uninvited guest was ever getting into his place ever!

New doors, windows, wiring and plumbing feature and the layout has been opened up for light, airy and spacious free flowing living.

The bedrooms are big and the bathroom and kitchen are easy on the eyes and quality that will last.

Our back there's a second bathroom for when you're coming back from a day out fishing or the boys have stayed over in the shed.

Originally a 3 bedroom design, our owners set up an office or spare bedroom, along with 2 great size master bedrooms, choosing more living over the original 3 master bedrooms.

Virtually re-built from top to toe, there is absolutely nothing to do but move in.

With other property selling for $1.25M for a great shed, but a knock down house, this is no sweat, no hassle, no thinking, ready to enjoy now living you won't find selling anywhere else in the town!

We've already had offers, so if this looks like what you're after, let us know, as open houses won't be happening, but we are very happy to get you through …

Get set to drool over the shed to end all sheds and the home with not a thing to do!

See you soon ….
