Nestled in the sunny, social suburb of North Mackay and walking distance to the Gooseponds is this gorgeous sanctuary on a healthy 774m2 block. Cosy cottage vibes collide with sleek neutral tones and contemporary finishes to give you a home just as unique as you and one that you’ll be proud to live and entertain in.

As you enter via the secure front gate (one of the many thoughtful instalments under current ownership), you’ll be instantly wrapped in the home’s warm, welcoming embrace. The front yard itself is a secluded escape, complete with stepping stones, established tropical gardens and timber bench seating, perfect for a firepit zone or even a plunge pool later down the track! All of this is overlooked by the crown jewel of the home: an impressive wraparound timber deck with tons of room for alfresco dining and year-round entertainment. Plus, those looking for extra storage and parking will love the long concreted driveway to the shed & high clearance carport!
Reminiscent of a classic Queenslander with its polished timber floors and tongue-and-groove walls and ceilings, the home is drenched in natural light and enjoys outstanding crossflow ventilation. The main living zone flows seamlessly onto both the alfresco deck and spacious kitchen/dining area. With all 3 bedrooms positioned down the hall in their own private wing, you can enjoy that long-awaited games night with friends without disturbing the little ones. Everything about this home just makes sense!
