Welcome to your perfect Lake Kaniere escape. Set among native bush at 16 Stuart Street, this fully renovated bach is all about slowing down, getting outdoors, and enjoying everything this iconic spot has to offer.
Renovated in 2020, with a calm, beautiful interior it feels warm and welcoming. The living area opens out through new ranch sliders onto a generous deck (partially covered with skylights), making it an easy place to relax after a day on the lake or trails.
There are three bedrooms, ideal for family and friends:
- One room with built-in bunks with under bunk storage plus a queen bed
- One room with a queen bed
- A third bedroom in a sleepout off the garage
The bach sits on a spacious 842sqm section, with land excavated to create a large flat lawn — perfect for kids, tents, boats, or backyard cricket. Cedar cladding, a long-run iron roof and a cosy fire complete the classic bach feel, while foundations have been structurally strengthened for peace of mind.
Big-ticket upgrades are already done, including a 30,000L water tank and a new 4,800L filtered septic system, designed to accommodate a second dwelling. The bach has been fully re-wired and re-plumbed. Architectural concept drawings for an additional dwelling are included, giving future owners options down the track.
Whether it’s swimming, kayaking, boating, or jumping on the Westcoast Wilderness Trail, Lake Kaniere delivers an unbeatable outdoor lifestyle — this bach is the perfect base.
A genuine, move-in-ready Lake Kaniere bach with room to grow. Bring the paddleboards, bikes and mates — summer sorted.
