From the street, 12 Ancora Street has that clean, coastal presence that makes you slow down—the crisp weatherboard profile, tall windows and manicured gardens framing a modern two-storey family home with an inviting portico and a genuine sense of “new home” ease. Step inside and the tone continues: calm, contemporary finishes, great natural light and a floor plan that has been designed for everyday liveability as much as it has been designed to entertain.
The ground level is all about connection. A generous open-plan living and dining zone flows out to a covered alfresco, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor space for weekend lunches, quiet morning coffees and easy weeknight dinners while the kids or pets play in the yard. Anchoring it all is a sleek stone-topped kitchen with a long breakfast bar, black tapware and glossy subway tiling that bounces light around the room. A brilliant bonus sits directly behind the kitchen: a combined butler's pantry and laundry, giving you acres of extra storage, a second prep zone for parties and the practicality of a full laundry.
Upstairs is cleverly arranged for privacy and quiet time. The main bedroom forms a calm retreat with a walk-in robe and its own ensuite, while three additional bedrooms are fitted with built-ins and air-conditioning for year-round comfort. A second living room on this level creates a perfect kids' TV space or reading lounge, and there's a dedicated study nook that keeps laptops and homework out of the dining room. The family bathroom is well-positioned to service the bedrooms, and the overall sense is one of thoughtful separation between social spaces and sleeping zones so everyone can unwind in peace.
Comfort and efficiency are at the heart of the home's specification. Multiple split systems provide climate control to living and bedrooms, and solar panels help keep running costs down. The alfresco overlooks a neat, low-maintenance yard that's ready for a herb garden, trampoline or simply a patch of lawn for the dog, and the landscaped front garden sets an elegant first impression for guests.
The location is a standout. Ancora Street sits in a quiet pocket of Rothwell, a bayside suburb in the City of Moreton Bay positioned between North Lakes and the Redcliffe Peninsula. It places you moments from daily essentials and weekend fun—Rothwell railway station on the Redcliffe Peninsula line offers straightforward commuting to the CBD, while major road links via Anzac Avenue and the Bruce Highway put the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane within easy reach.
Families love the schooling options here, with Mueller College and Grace Lutheran College both close by, and there's an ever-growing list of retail and dining choices at Westfield North Lakes, home to big-name stores and a full lineup of conveniences. When you want fresh air, Hays Inlet Conservation Park and the Redcliffe waterfront deliver coastal walks, birdlife and breezes—the lifestyle that draws people to this part of the bay.
Altogether, this is a polished, move-in-ready home with the right spaces in all the right places: open-plan living that spills outdoors, a true entertainer's kitchen with a walk-through butler's pantry–laundry, two living areas plus a study zone, four comfortable bedrooms including a private main suite, air-conditioning throughout, a double garage and energy-savvy solar. In a quiet street close to transport, schools, shopping and the bay, 12 Ancora Street captures the Rothwell lifestyle perfectly—modern, practical and effortlessly easy to love.
