Whoever said size doesn’t matter has never lived in a home that the family has outgrown. This progressively renovated, extremely spacious and versatile high-set home is set on an 809m2 level parcel of land with established gardens, ample space for backyard cricket and footy, a 2-bay powered shed and plenty of room for a pool if that’s on your wish list.
Light, bright, modern and airy, the upstairs main living zone features gorgeous, polished timber floors and crisp white Plantation shutters, an enormous open plan living/dining zone and a contemporary kitchen with striking thick, marble-look laminate bench tops. The family bathroom has also been thoughtfully renovated to complement the design of the kitchen and services four bedrooms tucked peacefully in its own wing.
Downstairs, you will find additional usable spaces with a smaller second bathroom, laundry area, split system air-conditioning and direct access to a large undercover patio. Extremely versatile, its uses are as broad as the imagination - think home office, teen retreat, guest accommodation, home gym, you name it!
There are many reasons why homes in East Mackay are so tightly held. With its solid level of ownership, tree-lined streets, city conveniences on your doorstep and great sense of community, this is a wonderful place to live and raise a family.
Why we LOVE 18 Hodges Street…
- The location - Leave the car at home, gather the kids, the dog & enjoy a walk or bike ride to Quota Beach, Binnington Sands Reserve or the local playground. Enjoy living in a lovely, quiet street while being minutes from everyday essentials, sporting activities, schools, work, recreational facilities & dining precincts
- The stunning solid timber floors throughout the upper level - Against the light neutral tones of the walls, the contemporary kitchen & crisp white Plantation shutters, the timber floors add warmth & character while also being easy to maintain & an excellent low-allergen choice in bedrooms for a healthy night’s sleep
-The versatility - With more of us working from home these days & accommodating older kids or parents, this home offers the versatility to suit all needs, ages & stages. The ground floor spans the breadth & width of the upper level & features tiled, airconditioned spaces, includes immense built-in storage, modern bathroom with separate toilet & access to a large undercover patio & the backyard, perfect for entertaining. Access to the main living zone on level 1 is via an internal staircase in the foyer

The renovated family bathroom features twin vanities, an oversized shower & subway tiles that complements the kitchen styling. Neutral paint finishes & white plantation shutters complete the fresh, coastal vibe
- The spaciousness of the main living zone - When we say spacious, we mean it - even the largest dining table, lounge suite & the biggest wall mounted TV won’t feel crowded or out of place here.
