What's around 16 Holland St

Character Without Compromise

Warm, welcoming and wonderfully easy to live in, this charming post-war Queenslander cottage is reminiscent of homes from a simpler time, making you feel at ease from the very first step through the beautiful statement front door. It offers the perfect balance of character, comfort and convenience in one of Mackay’s most tightly held lifestyle pockets. Beyond the white picket fence, gorgeous façade, leafy cottage gardens and welcoming front porch framed by greenery is a home filled with personality, from the polished timber floors and soaring 10ft ceilings to the VJ walls, decorative fretwork and beautifully restored leadlight French doors. The current owners have carefully renovated and refreshed the property throughout their ownership, preserving the home’s original charm while introducing all the practical modern touches that make everyday living easy. Whether you’re looking for a character home close to the city centre, a small family seeking a manageable yard with ample space for the kids to play, or you’re keen to ‘right-size’ into something single-level and more low-maintenance without sacrificing quality, room to entertain and lifestyle, this property fits the brief beautifully. Why we LOVE 16 Holland Street… - Beautifully renovated while retaining its original charm – The owners have progressively improved aspects of this home over time with thoughtful renovations including repainting inside & out (gorgeous, timeless colour palette), installation of a full length concrete driveway & white picket fence to the front boundary, restoration of the original leadlight French doors, replacement of the split-system air-conditioning, addition of LED downlighting & pendant feature lighting, full re-stumping of the home, renovations of two bathrooms & laundry, addition of a tiled patio & lovely landscaped gardens, including a raised veggie patch. The result is a home that feels fresh, functional & inviting while still honouring its Queenslander cottage character - Warm, welcoming, natural light-filled interiors – From the polished timber floors underfoot to the soaring ceilings overhead, every room feels light, airy & inviting. Traditional details, including VJ panelling, decorative fretwork, retainment of casement feature windows & French doors, create that timeless cottage feel, while the renovations & refurbishments have been tastefully completed to blend seamlessly with the home’s original features - Versatile living spaces for modern lifestyles – The sunroom at the front of the home is such a lovely additional space. Filled with natural light & overlooking the front gardens, it would make the perfect home office, reading room, kids’ activity zone or quiet sitting room depending on your needs. French doors allow you to close this space off for privacy when desired - Relaxed everyday living – The separate lounge & dining spaces are well connected to the kitchen, creating a functional central hub for day-to-day living. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet night in, hosting family for dinner or opening the doors to let the breezes flow through, the layout feels practical, connected & easy to enjoy electric appliances (including dishwasher), wide fridge space & a generous pantry space. With its backyard outlook, it’s easy to meal prep while keeping an eye on the kids/grandkids as they play outdoors - Two spacious bedrooms with thoughtful separation – The master bedroom is positioned at the front of the home & is accessible from both the living & the dining rooms, the latter via gorgeous leadlight French Doors, which can be opened or closed. The master bedroom also features a bank of built-in robes & a built-in desk nook with shelving. The second bedroom is privately positioned towards the rear of the home closer to the second bathroom & has a double built-in robe. Both bedrooms have timber floors (ideal for allergy sufferers), split system A/C & a ceiling fan for year-round comfort - Beautifully renovated bathrooms & laundry – All three wet areas have been fully renovated by the current owners in timeless finishes, with subway wall tiles, modern floor tiles & a fresh combo of white, timber & calming accent tones creating a look that is both modern & in keeping with the style of the rest of the home. The main bathroom includes a shower-over-bath with wall niches for toiletries, generous vanity storage & restored casement window. The second bathroom includes a glass screened shower & the laundry has also been stylishly updated with clever storage solutions, extended bench space & seamless access to the outdoor patio area - Leafy, easy-care outdoor living – The gardens have been transformed from a blank canvas into a lush, low-maintenance setting with established greenery front & rear, along with a raised veggie garden bed. It’s easy to picture a few free-range chooks running around, kids playing or simply somewhere peaceful to enjoy your morning coffee on the front porch or under the shade of the established trees in the back yard. Bliss! - Accessible shed & storage options – The original shed has been refreshed & repurposed as a home gym & storage space, complete with roller door access to capture the breezes plus glass separate sliding door entry. As the new owner, this is a space you can easily tailor to suit your own lifestyle needs & offers a single car parking space if required, plus additional space for storage or hobbies. There’s also an additional lock-up garden shed for gardening equipment & extra storage - Secure & practical outdoor space – The full-length concreted driveway, double gates & fenced frontage not only provide excellent privacy & secure parking, yet also create a fantastic safe play space for kids on scooters & bikes Why we LOVE West Mackay… - Everything a family needs is on your doorstep, from parks & playgrounds, sporting facilities & the local schools to childcare, transport & shops - Walk to the park or Botanic Gardens from home. There are so many great spots nearby to enjoy a quiet walk or a picnic. You could even enjoy a nice catch up with friends over brunch at the Gardens Café - Minutes to work (so close you could ride a bike). Spend less time getting to & from work, more time doing the things you love. Key employment hubs close to home include the Base Hospital, Paget Industrial Estate, CQ University & the Mackay CBD - An amazing extended backyard – Go for a run or a bike ride along the scenic blue Water Trail, cast a line in the Pioneer River, or head to the stunning Far Beach, popular as a walking beach with locals. When it comes to the natural environment you will be spoilt for choice here - Next level convenience & great dining out options – Home is just a few minutes’ drive from Canelands Shopping Centre & Coles at Parkside, plus the CBD, Airport & a great selection of café, bar & dining options Disclaimer: This property is being sold by without a price and therefore a price guide cannot/ or may not be provided.
