Overview
This rare original Queenslander, nestled peacefully in a cul-de-sac off Kelvin Grove Road, presents a unique opportunity to embrace Brisbane's coveted character architecture while capitalising on well-zoned land.
Set on a 562sqm block that benefits from a favourable slope, the property invites owners or investors to restore and extend the distinctive home or explore development opportunities thanks to its Character Residential (CR2 Infill) zoning. This zoning is particularly valuable in this inner-city location as it allows for the construction of a second dwelling and subdivision, offering significant scope for dual occupancy solutions without compromising the original home's integrity.
The home itself showcases exceptional craftsmanship rarely found today. Highlights include an ornate circular archway defining living spaces, original polished hardwood floors infused with natural light, a spacious sunroom that seamlessly extends the living area, and charming features like chamferboard and VJ walls. The character kitchen is styled with pine timber ceilings and cabinetry, complemented by pendant lighting and a pleasant garden outlook. Meanwhile, the original bathroom appeals with its timber ceiling, a soaking bathtub with shower, subway tiles, and timber vanity offering nostalgic appeal combined with practical functionality.
With three bedrooms, a large deck, a covered porch, and established, private gardens adorned with mature trees, the property blends lifestyle and functionality. Solar panels provide a sustainable energy advantage while two dedicated car spaces ensure ample parking.
- Internal living area spans 106sqm and is complemented by 58sqm of external space, cumulatively offering 164sqm of total floor area.
- Positioned close to vital amenities including Kelvin Grove Urban Village, QUT campus, and Kelvin Grove State College catchment within walking distance.
- Excellent connectivity with bus routes at the doorstep providing direct CBD access, complemented by proximity to Roma Street Station and Brisbane CBD.
This home is ideal for character home enthusiasts, investors seeking development potential, or families appreciating inner-city access with space to grow. The enduring value is amplified by its limited market availability, having been owned by one family since 1990. It promises an exceptional foundation for creating a distinctive inner-city lifestyle or an astute investment in a sought-after suburb.
