Overview
Hidden Gem on Dorset Drive: Private, Quiet & Low Maintenance Living
Tucked away in a tightly held pocket of Rochedale South, this townhouse at 12/61 Dorset Drive presents a rare blend of space, privacy, and low maintenance living on a generous 431 square meter allotment within a peaceful complex of only 12 residences.
Unlike larger, overcrowded complexes that often experience traffic and noise, this small and quiet complex, known as Doo Court, is surrounded by greenery. It neighbors Dorset Park and directly backs onto parkland. The absence of a pool or gated facilities keeps body corporate fees low, making this property exceptionally practical and appealing to first home buyers, downsizers, and investors alike.
One of the standout features of this residence is its secluded position within the complex. It is hidden away from the entrance and enjoys the company of only one neighbor, offering a level of privacy rarely found in unit living. This peaceful setting creates a calm atmosphere that is immediately noticeable upon arrival.
Inside, the home boasts a spacious and functional layout with excellent natural light throughout. Both bedrooms are generously sized and fitted with built-in wardrobes and air conditioning. The bathroom is thoughtfully designed with a separate toilet for added convenience.
The kitchen distinguishes this property from many others in the complex. Due to the unique positioning of the block, the garage is set further forward than most other residences, resulting in a kitchen that is wider by approximately the width of a refrigerator compared to others in the complex. This subtle but important difference enhances the kitchen's flow, functionality, and storage potential. Updated kitchen doors further modernize the space, creating a clean and refreshed feel.
With its single-level layout, peaceful atmosphere, and large land size, this property offers a lifestyle that feels far more relaxed and spacious than most units available in the area. The substantial land size also presents clear future potential to add a carport to the side if desired, further enhancing practicality and long-term value.
This townhouse is perfect for first home buyers, downsizers, and investors alike, delivering a rare combination of privacy, practicality, low maintenance living, and exceptional convenience.
Positioned only moments from both major highways, the location is exceptionally convenient. Brisbane CBD is approximately 20 minutes away, while the Gold Coast can be reached in around 40 minutes. Public transport is easily accessible with two bus stops located directly along Dorset Drive. Everyday shopping and dining options are nearby, including the Parfrey Road shops and Springwood Mall just minutes down Springwood Road.
The owner has already secured another home in Rochedale South, creating a genuine opportunity for buyers to secure one of the complex's most private and unique residences.
