It's more than 5 years since a South Brisbane house sold at this price so this will be 2011's best opportunity! This worker's cottage is small but it offers a very affordable freehold home that's just 600m from South Bank. You will need to do work (bring a lot more than your paintbrush!) but if you have a flair for design and renovation you won't want to miss this one.
timber floors, casement windows, enclosed front verandah
225m2 allotment that's 29m deep so the quiet, rear garden is your opportunity to extend the home
leafy rear terracing up from the home, ideal for entertaining
this is not a "paint and profit" project - major renovations are needed
With a median house price for 2011 of $805,000 South Brisbane is home to charming, renovated Queenslanders and cottages. In an elevated and very central location, this home definitely fits the ‘worst home, best suburb' target.
Stroll down the hill to South Bank, just 600m away. Cafes, galleries, parkland - and over the Goodwill Bridge to the CBD.
Opposite the entry gates of St Laurence's College it's also part of the sought-after Brisbane State High School Catchment
Easy.
