Boasting breathtaking, North-west facing city and river views from its exclusive riverfront address, this tidy 420sqm level block with jetty is your opportunity to acquire absolute riverfrontage in a premier position less than ten minutes from the heart of Brisbane’s CBD.

Revamp and renovate or remove and rebuild – the opportunities are boundless for those fortunate enough to secure this outstanding opportunity, especially given that there are no downsides – no steep, difficult block to make designing and approvals a challenge, no undesirable orientation and no access issues – just 420sqm of tidy level block with a sturdy, two-level house already in place. Even the stunning, panoramic views are laid out in plain site directly opposite on the other bank of the river so that the vista can be enjoyed from any vantage point – no clever architectural design needed to capture and frame the scene. And certainly it is a most impressive view with the vista encompassing the city, New Farm and Bulimba, with nothing but picturesque New Farm Park on the opposing bank adding such elusive green space to the urban panorama.

The little gem of a house has stood the test of time, remaining almost entirely untouched for over forty years. Even as its surrounding neighbours were revamped and re-created as stunning riverfront estates, number 42 has held strong, a veritable time-capsule that time forgot tucked away along a quiet, no-through road in this incredibly highly sought locale.

Downstairs, a secure courtyard and single garage leads to a rumpus with fireplace, a covered patio, the garden and jetty beyond. There is also a bathroom and utility room here as well as a mobility lift that links the two floors. Upstairs meanwhile offers a dining room and separate lounge which flows out to a riverfront deck, a functional kitchen, three double bedrooms (two with built-ins and verandah access), the family bathroom and a study. While it is certainly in need of an expansive renovation, the house has good bones and a great base for those wishing to extensively remodel, extend and breathe new life into the existing structure. The other option though of course is to simply demolish the house and build your dream home in its place. Certainly the outstanding riverfront position and calibre of the surrounding designer residences make overcapitalising almost an impossibility.

With a jetty with deep-water mooring just at the end of the garden and an outstanding inner-city locale this is a prime opportunity to acquire absolute riverfrontage in one of the finest positions along the Brisbane River. Make no mistake, it will be sold.
