RARE, OUT OF THE BOX OPPORTUNITY
Brisbane City Council Rates -$712.69/qtr
104 Brisbane Corso Fairfield can most simply be best described as “out of the box”" and offers the astute buyer two houses in one, in a spectacular location. The back home is the original home on the block – raised, moved to the back and renovated to create a fully registered Granny Flat. The front home was brought in, it’s also raised to capture the beautiful river views and breezes.
This is a rare opportunity to live in or invest:
- Perfect for the dual living family – two separate homes on one block – offering the connection needed, yet at the same time full separation and independence
- Ideal for families to buy together – a premium location that you can purchase with e.g. a sibling – a property you may not be able to afford by yourself
- Great investment – live in one and rent the other out to create a steady income flow
- City pad opportunity – keep one for your city pad and rent the other out
- Families from out of town with children coming to University will love the proximity & layout
Set on a large flat 711sqm block, this property is a must to inspect. The front home collects amazing river and park views and has three good sized bedrooms. The main bedroom has a modern ensuite and faces towards the river, allowing river breezes all year round. The open plan living dining area is surrounded by plantation shutters with hardwood timber floorboards throughout. A large modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, five burner gas stove, stone benchtops and dishwasher is perfectly located to enjoy the views on offer.
Under the house has lots of storage space and could easily be utilised for a home office, gym or more living space. With great height clearance – raised 3m – there is plenty of room to fit the boat/caravan or work trucks. The slab has also been waterproofed with extra thickness for anyone wanting to build this area in.
The stand out feature of this listing is the fully separate and registered granny flat at the back of the property with two bedrooms, open plan living and dining, a full sized kitchen, bathroom and a deck, perfect for entertaining! You could add a covered walk way to connect the two homes if needed, but at present they are two separate homes. The gardens dividing the homes are full of fruiting trees including banana, mulberry, pomegranate, lychee and passionfruit creating lovely, edible greenspace.
Opportunities like this don’t come along often and is perfect for investment; live in the front, rent out the back. Keep one home for a city pad for yourself and rent out the other. Move the family up to Queensland and put the grandparents into the Granny Flat. Reduce the mortgage and buy with a family member with one home each. Add a walk way and connect the two homes.
Across the road from the river walks and river parks this outstanding home is located within walking distance or a short bike ride to the Green Bridge connecting you to the University of Queensland. Within easy access to the recently upgraded Fairfield Gardens Shopping Centre with both Coles & Aldi, QLD Tennis Centre, major hospitals, major universities, prestige private schools and the CBD, ensuring work and play are never too far away.
