Last Listing description (March 2024)

The epitome of the relaxed lifestyle that comes with living in a classic, country-style Queenslander. This gorgeous 1960’s home is packed with unique character and charm, standing tall and proud over the canefields on a generous 1440m2 block. A great selection of upgrades have been made in recent years for the comfort and convenience of your busy family, without tarnishing the rich history or reliable original foundations this home boasts.

Engulfed in beautiful flora and easy-care established gardens, giving off a relaxed atmosphere consistent with the semi-rural location, this home has one neighbour and backs onto canefield that will make you feel like you own all the land to the river & beyond without the upkeep! Once you enter via the Colorbond fence at the front boundary, you’ll feel as though you’re stepping into a farmhouse oasis. With above-ground pool, sprawling fully fenced backyard, single powered shed to store the boat and plenty of spots to lounge in the shade including an adorable gazebo, this house is ready for you to make your home.

The generous floor plan spanning across 2 levels will effortlessly accommodate your growing family. The home’s 4 bedrooms are separated into an intuitive arrangement of a minor bedroom wing downstairs and master bedroom upstairs, meaning the kids have their own fun while you indulge in some precious downtime. Despite how nice the quiet moments will be, a highlight of your lifestyle here will be bringing everyone together for a BBQ out on the huge, covered timber deck. Eat, drink and laugh in the cool, slightly sweet scented breeze as the sun sets on your iconic view of the Pleystowe Sugar Mill.

Why we LOVE this home…

- The laid-back location – You’ll have the best of both worlds, with all the amenities you could need nearby but only the wide open canefields & Pioneer River to your rear. Plus, with so many promising developments in the area, like the recent bypass in Mackay designed to significantly minimise traffic, your future is looking bright!

- The thoughtful refurbishments – In recent years, the home has received a full internal & external repaint in tasteful modern tones, a roof replacement to the main home (existing roof on extension in fabulous condition) & a kitchen renovation

- The well-connected kitchen & dining zone – Signature to a country Queenslander, your renovated kitchen seamlessly adjoins to the offside dining zone & alfresco area, a fantastic layout for entertaining! Spacious & open, the kitchen features a neutral colour scheme, electric cooking & ample cabinetry

- The dual interior living spaces – Upstairs, the formal lounge with gorgeous, polished timber floors & a/c will be ideal for curling up in front of the TV after dinner. If they’re not loving what’s on, the kids can head downstairs to play in the tiled rumpus room which is central to their bedrooms & the main bathroom for added convenience

- The 4 pristine bedrooms – In the minor bedroom wing you’ll have 3 spacious rooms, 2 with built-ins, any of which would make an ideal office or study if needed. The master bedrooms upstairs is king-sized with timber flooring, a mirrored built-in robe & ensuite

- The conveniently placed bathrooms – With one bathroom to each level, your household’s morning routine is soon to become a whole lot smoother! The oversized main bathroom downstairs offers a magnificent spa-style corner bathtub, plus a glass screen shower, single vanity & toilet. Upstairs, you’ll have your own shower, single vanity & toilet to the ensuite. Although original in age, the ensuite is perfectly adequate for now and a renovation can be considered when the time is right for you.

- Other features include the double garage with interior access, plenty of parking/turning space for cars out the front, decking around the pool for lazing in the sun, full height ceilings to both levels of the home, internal laundry to the lower level & so much more!

Why we LOVE Walkerston…

- Relaxed semi-rural vibe – Walkerston is an ideal suburb for those seeking a laid-back living environment. And yet, you’re deceptively close to every convenience a busy family could need or want

- More time to spend with the family – Whether you work in Mackay or the Mines, you won’t have far to travel each day, which means more time at home doing the things you love with the people you love

- Convenient location with amenities galore – Everything you need is just minutes from home including Walkerston Village with Woolworths, specialty stores, healthcare & 24hr fitness; playgrounds/parks; childcare & your choice of public or private primary schools

- Dining out & takeaway choices – Numerous café & takeaway dining options are available 7 days a week, perfect for those nights when you feel like a break from cooking. Or why not enjoy an evening out at Wests Leagues Club or The Duke Hotel

- Loads of outdoor fun to be had – If you love to water ski or jet ski, make the most of a day on the water at nearby Kinchant Dam; swim, paddleboard & enjoy a picnic at the Pioneer River, or take a day trip further up the Pioneer Valley to the picturesque Finch Hatton Gorge or Eungella
