This charming cottage-style home on a sprawling 802m2 corner block in the ever popular West Mackay is everything a first homebuyer, downsizer or investor could need. Situated just minutes from a selection of great schools, the Botanic Gardens, shopping centres and key employment hubs, you’ll love the convenience and connectedness on offer.
One of the first things you’ll notice about this home’s generous layout is how versatile it is, especially for dual living needs. As part of the existing 2 bay garage is a large, light-filled space with timber-look vinyl floors and separate sliding door access. This zone is perfect for extra storage or as a hobbies space, operating a home based business, hosting extended family for the holidays or giving your eldest child their own space to thrive. Speaking of extra space, along with 2 oversized bedrooms in a separate wing of the home, you’ll have another room off the main living/dining zone behind bi-fold doors with carpeted flooring and loads of built-in storage. Treat this as a 3rd bedroom, study, games or media room, you name it!
Outside, there’s so much room for the kids and pets to play, and the yard has been made even more secure with brand new timber fencing to the street-facing boundaries for your peace of mind including double gated access to the garage and yard. Having been extensively cleared of trees and gardens, the yard is also now the ideal blank canvas for you to install a big shed, pool, fire pit area, additional parking for the boat/caravan or whatever else suits your lifestyle! Or, if you’re simply looking to kick your feet up and enjoy the fresh air as soon as you move in, the all-weather patio with full fly screening will be the ideal place to do so.
