6 Badminton Court

Forest Lake QLD 4078

Inside, the floor plan works hard for a growing family. The open-plan living and dining flows directly to a wrap-around alfresco - built for year-round use and big enough to mean it. The renovated kitchen keeps pace: subway tile splashback, five-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher, and a layout that keeps the cook in the conversation. Split system air conditioning covers the living area, main bedroom, and fourth bedroom, the laundry connects directly to a dedicated drying court, and a garden shed handles the overflow. Both bathrooms have been renovated to match.

And then there's the alfresco. More than 50 square metres of covered outdoor living wrapping around the rear of the home, looking out over a flat green backyard with an established garden and fruit trees - a productive lime and a smaller orange tree that the kids will raid before you've had a chance to. It's the kind of space where birthday parties spill from inside to out, where the barbecue gets used on a Tuesday, where the afternoon just quietly extends itself. Forest Lake was built for exactly this kind of living - and this home delivers it better than most.

Four bedrooms, two updated bathrooms, double lock-up garage, and a location that puts Grand Avenue State School in catchment and Forest Lake's walking and bike path network at your doorstep. Several paths lead directly to the lake along the creek, Forest Lake Shopping Centre is an easy walk, and St John's Anglican College, Forest Lake State School, and Forest Lake State High School are all close by. This is a home that's been thoughtfully updated and is ready for the family that knows exactly what they want.

INSIDER'S SECRET . . .

Cul-de-sac homes on flat 500m2-plus blocks with side access don't come up often in Forest Lake - and when they do, families move fast. The north-facing aspect, wrap-around alfresco, and direct access to the lake path network make this one especially hard to replicate.
