Immaculate Inside and Out

The phrase ‘nothing to do but move in and enjoy' is a standard real estate expression. This home personifies that phrase. From the luxurious interior to the stunning, low maintenance tropical gardens, there really is nothing to do but take it all in.

Starting with the exterior of the home: the front yard is made up of well-designed driveways and gardens. The current owners have utilised the corner block to their advantage by placing a semi-circle driveway with two entries/exits to minimise the need for reversing onto the road. In one direction, the driveway leads into a two-bay carport. The other allows access through the oversized side-access to the enormous 9m x 8m shed at the rear of the property. There is a generous parking bay beside the shed for the boat or caravan, plus an outdoor shower for a quick rinse after you've been out on the boat!

Now that you are in the backyard, you can take in the eye-catching retaining wall. This architectural beauty was designed to give the homeowners two cool, relaxing places to enjoy in the backyard. The first is under the expansive back patio looking at the striking colours from the hardwood stairs and garden. The second is from under the shade of the sitting area atop the retaining wall. This area has been connected to power and water, so a gazebo can be added if required.

Upon entering the home, you will be greeted with cool neutral colours, which are a dream to mix and match with. The striking, large, high-gloss tiles make the space feel huge and are an attractive feature carried throughout the home.

The large galley kitchen has ample bench and cupboard space. With a breakfast bar overlooking the rumpus room, the extended benchtop provides added convenience for entertaining guests or those moments of doing homework while preparing dinner. The rumpus room flows almost seamlessly onto the patio, giving the space a large, indoor/outdoor entertaining vibe.

Enough credit is not giving to the functional spaces of the home: the bathroom and laundry. But these two rooms have been renovated to a degree that they become talking points. The laundry has striking high-gloss black cabinetry. The design allows for elevation of the washing machine and dryer, so no more bending over to get laundry in and out! Again, there is ample storage in both cupboard and drawer form.

The bathroom is accessible via the master suite, giving the illusion of an ensuite. Functionality is also at a premium in this space, with two shower heads, two basins and the two entrances. The floor-to-ceiling tiling in this space is ultra-luxurious and easy to clean.

Eimeo is one of the most sought-after suburbs of the Mackay region. With the quality schools, shops and beaches within easy walking or driving distance, this home will be a total crowd pleaser.
