“It’s a very versatile home that will suit families looking for an opulent lifestyle, corporate couples who enjoy the finer things in life, or even empty nesters that love to entertain,” added Ms Sanders.

The endless list of amenities includes a refined sitting room centred around an inbuilt fireplace, dedicated home office, top-of-the-line security system and massive 10-car garage.

Ms Sanders said the home is positioned in one of the most highly sought-after and tightly held streets in all of Mackay.

“The views can never be built-out, there are no neighbours to the rear and never will be, and it’s only 12-minutes from the CBD and 10-minutes from some of the best schools in the region.”

The exceptional 43 Shuttlewood Drive will head to auction on Monday 10 June at 10am.
