Mackay Land

Finding a vacant block of land in Mackay is just the start. There are quite a few around, still, despite the flood of demand that came from $45,000 of grants for first home builders. But not all blocks of land are equal and when good land becomes scarce, it gets harder to sort the good from the bad. Things you’ll need to think about include frontage, size of home, setbacks, easements, rocks, trees, zones, and overlays for things like noise corridor, bushfire, and flood. All these things can mean the difference between staying within a budget or blowing it out of the water - or not being able to build the type of home you want at all. That’s why it pays to talk with an expert like Adam from Esprit Constructions. He knows every trick in the book and can save you a lot of time, a fair amount of heartache, and a lot of money. Some of these pitfalls have been addressed in our past blog articles, but there’s no substitute for a conversation with the man himself. And, while you’re at it, you can check out the new display home in Richmond Hills.

Land Estates Around Mackay

To give you an idea of some of the key land estates around Mackay, you can refer to the map below. As of August 2020, some of these estates have blocks of land available from the developer while others have only resale blocks of land available through private purchase. As you can see, the majority of new land estates in Mackay have been on the north side of the river or the “northern beaches”. However, there is still one newer estate on the south side. There’s also some land available in the Pioneer Valley. Generally, Adam from Esprit Constructions keeps tabs on all kinds of land available around Mackay so you can’t go past him for a starting point.

Mackay House and Land Packages

House and land packages have become a popular way build your new home. There’s a number of advantages in buying them at the same time and probably the most important benefit is knowing that the home you want and the land you want are a feasible combination. As blocks of land have become smaller over recent decades, the proportions of a normal size block can limit the size and type of house you can build. Likewise, various regulations have been introduced that can limit what you can do on a block of land. Talking with Adam and the team at Esprit Constructions allow you to juggle your wants and needs in a home with the possibilities and constraints of what’s available on the land market. For many new home builders, the current display home (or one of the more recent ones) is a great starting point. Alterations can be made to the design to suit your needs or even whole sections from one display home combined with sections of another.
