Elegant Old-World Charm on Enviable Elevated Estate with Development Options!

Arguably one of the best sites available in Brisbane, this generous corner block property in blue-chip Highgate Hill offers a myriad of potential development options in a prime location. The two-storey Queenslander is on the market for the first time in 65 years, presenting three street frontages and affording some of the most spectacular views over the city district. Less than 2km from the CBD, the property rests within the catchment of West End State School and Brisbane State High, walking distance to South Bank, West End and a myriad of inner-city transport, shops, cafes and restaurants.

The upper level of the home comprises four spacious bedrooms, kitchen, dining, lounge, sunroom and bathroom, flaunting 3.2m high ceilings, VJ walls, timber floors and casement windows. The kitchen contains built-in cabinetry, gas stove and oven, adjacent to the dining room that flows out to the rear balcony. The enclosed verandah creates an additional living space through the wrap-around sunroom, possibly utilised as a home office, children’s playroom or additional bedroom.

Downstairs has been built-in as a self-contained granny flat, hosting a kitchenette, large bedroom, open plan living/dining, bathroom and laundry. The ample windows let in plenty of natural light, offering low-maintenance tiled floors and rear patio with private entrance. Key features of this elegant old-world property include the elevated position that allows cooling summer breezes that flow through the home, majestic city views from a desirable north-east aspect and the outstanding location that affords a high-growth, inner-city position.

Bursting with potential, the property presents the opportunity for owner-occupiers to renovate and make this their forever home or build an additional dwelling on the block (subject to BCC approval) and subdivide to produce an attractive rental return. Other schools in the area including St Lawrence’s and Somerville House make this a highly attractive location, also affording easy access to the University of Queensland, QUT and Southbank TAFE.
