Laurel Street is one of the most popular streets to live on Russell Island. And it's no surprise, given its North-end location, running East to West along the natural ridge off High Street.
Situated on the corner of Laurel and Folwell streets this level 541m2 block is cleared and rests in a grassy knoll at the very end of the no-through section. In a tranquil setting and catching the golden hues of the sunset, you will want to make this place home.
There's a small enclave of homes in the area and an emerging community is shaping-up with new-builds and more families gravitating to this ideal location. Close to town, it's convenient for the kids to ride to school, or for health-conscious adults, you can walk everywhere.
With all the hard work done (no costly trees to fell), you can get started on your building project immediately. Don't be disillusioned, as it's not a barren block and still retains some majestic gums along the boundary, which are great for shade and habitat. Plus, there's filtered views to the bay from the street, beyond the forested reserve at the water's edgea great space to explore, if you're a kid!
Fun fact: Did you know, this rather long street served as a runway during WWI to get island produce supplies to the troops in France? Remember tinned pineapple jam? Well it was packed and shipped from Russell Island!
You too, could be a part of island history and make your mark here.
