Savour the Sweet Life on Nectar Street

Set amongst this natural and tranquil setting with more than a dash of class. Within the midst of Lamb Island’s beautiful bushland and conservation area, it’s easy to enjoy and relax in the outdoors – inside, this quality home is just as compelling.

A two-minute drive from the Lamb Island jetty, Nectar Street is the essence of island life: secluded, laid-back and surrounded by nature, having natural conservation adjoining the property with the sweet sounds of nature flowing down to a creek that attracts all manner of birdlife. Number 19, though, is something else. A row of tall, stately palm trees guides you up the gravel driveway, casting dappled shade across the spacious wrap-around deck. The clean, corrugated iron exterior is both low-maintenance and a stunning contrast against quality timber decking and joinery.

Step up to the porch and meander around to the front deck, taking in the birdsong and gorgeous bushland in all directions. Glazed French doors open onto an open-plan kitchen/dining/living room, renovated to a high standard in 2021 with glossy black cabinetry and sparkling black stone countertops. Abundant natural light floods in from from not one, but two such sets of French doors, plus thoughtfully-positioned windows that invite a cooling cross-breeze. Elegant crown mouldings and polished hardwood floorboards complete the sophisticated fit-out, and a split-system air conditioner promises to keep you comfortable year-round.

Wandering further into the home, you’ll find three bedrooms, all featuring the same gorgeous floorboards and crisp white walls. Ceiling fans circulate fresh air from large windows that squeeze every drop out of Nectar Street’s gorgeous bush outlook. The master bedroom boasts a large built in robe and another set of glazed French doors opening onto the wrap-around deck.

With easy access from all three bedrooms, the toilet and bathroom have been updated in keeping with the kitchen, with matching white subway tiles adorning the walls and stylish black stone-look tile flooring. The original bath has been retained, and once you’ve immersed yourself in its full depth with epsom salts, candles and a glass of wine, you’ll be most grateful!

Finally, the well-lit laundry brings you to the back door, with a few sturdy steps leading to the driveway and backyard. While there’s plenty of space out here for a shed, or perhaps a vegetable garden, one thing you won’t find is lawn. Yep – say adios to the lawnmower, you’ll be wasting no precious time keeping the grass down!

Outside delights also include the seclusion of having just one well-hidden neighbour, conservation land both behind and across the street, an irrigated, low-maintenance front garden, a well-hidden septic system, and secure under-house storage with standing room, including a spacious, partially-completed enclosed area at the tallest end.

But it’s the effortless natural beauty that takes the cake here: watching dusk settle through the canopy and listening to the curlews call as you sit back in your own nest is a true taste of paradise.

Life is sweeter on Nectar Street – come see for yourself!
