Cottages with character and potential have without a doubt become the most coveted property in New Farm. This charming 3-4 bedroom home, sitting on 577sqm of prime New Farm soil, offers everything the market is screaming for. Its beautiful presentation, abundance of natural light, and killer location make 46 Browne Street an easy place to live.

When speaking with the owners about what they enjoyed most about residing at number 46 over the last 9 years, it’s obvious this house holds a special place in their hearts. They describe their street as wide and leafy, with friendly neighbours – it feels as though you’re in a quiet country town, they say. The owners would often make the brisk walk up Browne Street to catch a bus directly into the CBD and find themselves at their respective workplace in 10 minutes. Geographically 46 Browne Street is literally in the heart of the peninsula, life here is an easy stroll to Merthyr Village for groceries, a lazy Sunday at New Farm Park and walk down to one of the many award-winning restaurants along James Street for date night. The huge family sized backyard which can only be described as an inner-city oasis is an absolute rarity in New Farm houses these days.

46 Browne Street has a warmth that cannot be designed or built – it is a home with timeless allure, characteristic of what New Farm once was. Whether your intention is to hold onto this home as an investment, move in as is or renovate, this is a limited offering. It’s not often that a property of this nature has the bragging rights of location and potential – placing this beautiful home in a league of its own.

UPSTAIRS: Two Bedrooms, master with walk in. Can easily be converted to three bedrooms by building in the opening in the wall to the front room. One bathroom and main kitchen. Bright and airy with two living zones and striking city views from the back deck.

DOWNSTAIRS: Fully self-contained level with a double garage. One bedroom, one bathroom, kitchen and living, with separate entry. Perfect for a home office or utilized to offset the mortgage at $250-$300 p/w.

Make no mistake, the owners have committed elsewhere and this property will be sold. This is an excellent opportunity to secure an increasingly rare home site with ample options. An inspection of this renovator and a relaxed drive around New Farm will convince you that you should reward yourself with the best lifestyle Brisbane has to offer.
