If you want lots of vacant land, heaps of high-clearance parking for caravans, boats, trucks and other vehicles and would love a nicely presented home close to town then this one is a must-see.
There is dual access, from the Bruce Highway at the front and Collman's Road at the back, and a big carport and shed to park vehicles undercover as well as plenty more room on the block.
Set on three acres, more than half the block is vacant land that would be ideal for someone who has horses or other animals, kids with motor bikes or to build another dwelling. There is also a dam and gazebo in that part of the block.
The other half of the property includes the house, a high-clearance four-bay carport, a high-clearance three-bay shed, stables, and a terrific chook shed.
And you get all that space and fantastic parking options for vans, boats, trucks and other vehicles while still having the convenience of being just 17km from the CBD.
The property has easy access to the work sites of Paget, the Ooralea shopping centre, the airport, schools in West and South Mackay and the Hay Point and Dalrymple Bay coal terminals.
The house is renovated but an authentic rustic feel has been maintained. Some of the features of the house include:
- Beautifully presented, renovated kitchen with dishwasher
- Sparkling, renovated bathroom
- Three bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes
- Another room that could be a home office or sewing room
- Large loungeroom with fireplace and an area set aside as a study space
- Separate dining area that is near the kitchen and leads out to the rear deck
- The rear deck is particularly large and looks out to the vacant land and the nearby trees. It's a great place for a morning cuppa or a cool afternoon drink. There is also a front deck
- Renovated laundry in the downstairs area that also provides lots more undercover space for storage options
The flooring in the house is a mixture of beautiful timber floorboards and modern tiles that are in keeping with the rustic feel of the house.
The roof and guttering are all fairly new and in good condition while the plumbing and electrical wiring have recently been upgraded.
But let's go back outside: Whether you have a business with vehicles, have simply got lots of toys like a caravan, a boat and other vehicles, there is an abundance of parking options.
There is easy access for bigger vehicles along the driveway that runs the full length of the property and provides access from the front and back. The features include:
- Three-bay powered shed with 2.95m clearance at the entrance
- Four-bay powered carport with even higher clearance that also has a lean-to
- Horse stables with two stalls and another room for food and storage
- Self-watering chook shed with eight pens and a feeder
There are also fruit trees that include dragon fruit, mango, orange, mandarin, lemon, ruby grapefruit, lychees and pineapple as well as macadamia and pecan.
The other half of the block is a blank canvas that has potential for a range of uses from horses or other animals, kids to use as they wish, and to potentially add another dwelling among other things.
There is a dam and gazebo there that provides a unique place to get away from it all and take in a different perspective on the property.
It is rare to get a property of this size with the sheds and other features on offer this close to town so don't delay on this one.
