61 Waterway Cres, Dubbo NSW 2830

Southlakes Dubbo | owner-built family home | pool house with living area | zoned ducted AC and solar This property’s strongest buying case is its rare configuration—a dedicated pool house with its own living area and bathroom effectively creates a self-contained guest or teenage retreat, which is uncommon in Dubbo’s family stock. The oversized master with custom cabinetry and walk-in wardrobe, plus the butler’s pantry with bi-fold servery, signal a home designed for both daily function and entertaining. For a buyer seeking a move-in-ready family property with income or multigenerational potential, this house offers a genuine edge over standard four-bedroom listings in Southlakes. The salt-chlorinated pool and timber-lined alfresco further strengthen its appeal to families who value outdoor living without ongoing maintenance burden. The primary risk is valuation inconsistency—recent estimates range from $1.079M to $1.29M, meaning the buyer must anchor negotiations to the higher active listing band to avoid overpaying. The 2021 sale reference is now stale and offers no current leverage. However, the 9.75kW solar system, zoned reverse cycle heating and cooling, and double gate side access add tangible long-term savings and flexibility for a trailer, boat, or small caravan. The property serves best as a long-term family hold or a dual-living opportunity if the pool house is separately metered. Buy with confidence at the lower end of the search band and budget for a building and pest inspection given the owner-built construction.
