Last Listing description (March 2024)

This 2 bedroom compact neatly presented apartment is no penthouse, but the location offers a perfect opportunity (at a perfect price point) for those wanting to take advantage of everything Great Lakes has to offer notably Forster's magic water-ways with the beautiful Wallis Lake being only one block away!

Stroll along the foreshore and take advantage of the majestic views, the boat shed facilities, the netted swimming pool area for a quick (or not so quick) refreshing dip and of course dropping into Paradise Marina for coffee and cake!

Having Cape Hawke Hospital and the medical precinct only a 5 minute stroll away is an extra bonus for those requiring medical assistance from time to time.

The CBD of Forster is also close by and to validate this point, the current owner prefers to enjoy a short bike ride into town, rather than bother using his car.

Carlyle Court is a complex of 7, all being on ground level, and offers a parking space for each property. Double glazed windows are a great help with keeping the inside cool in the summer and warm in the winter. With the communal share laundry nearby and one of the clothes line handily located right outside this apartment, makes everything so convenient. There is also plenty of room to establish your own garden bed.
