A sought after character home in a prime location ready for the taking. Close to the city’s edge and offering a comfortable and convenient inner-city lifestyle. When people talk about property gems I envisage they are talking about this pre-war jewel.

Some of the more modern touches include an updated kitchen, carpet to the living room and bedrooms and split system air-conditioning to the Master. However there are still plenty more opportunities to upgrade the residence with future options including raising and building in underneath – Subject to council approval, relocating the laundry downstairs to repurpose that room as a guest room or nursery or perhaps extend the bathroom into the neighbouring study.

Just 6 kilometres north of the Brisbane CBD, Alderley is a reputable and popular suburb among Brisbane residents. The demand for housing in the area has been strong and is likely to continue due to a combination of elements consisting of: good public transport facilities (the railway station and routine suburban and city bus routes), the suburb’s close proximity to the city, and its distinctly Queensland character.
Residents of Alderley enjoy access to a range of retail buying outlets including supermarkets and many convenience, take-away stores and restaurants. A variety of huge parks and maintained nature locations are spread throughout the suburb with the just recently enhanced Grinstead Park playground proving amongst the most popular.
