In a whisper-quiet street, on a lot of some 1395m2, in the catchment areas of two of the best public schools on the Gold Coast, is this gleaming opportunity for the shrewd. Easily eclipsing the minimum lot 600m2 size for its low-density zoning, Council has approved splitting the lot into two, whilst preserving the house on one proposed block of 701m2 with the remaining block of 694m which will include the existing swimming pool.

With 448m2 blocks in Helensvale selling for $389,000, it is not far-fetched to imagine that a houseless block of 694m2 with a large concrete inground pool in a prestigious street would garner $450,000, and that the renovated, character-rich home on 701m2 would fetch $550,000-$600,000. So even with some development costs, a very pretty penny may be made.

The house comprises two living areas, four large, very charming bedrooms, two modern bathrooms (master with ensuite) and quality kitchen with stone benchtops. Elevated and oriented east, the house captures lovely views, morning sun and the summer breeze. Not least as bushland abuts the rear, the property is ultra-private.

Teeming with owner-occupiers, parks, shopping malls and abundant leisure options, Helensvale is for many the perfect suburb. This is a place where kids can roam happily on bikes, relieving you of the usual burden of parental taxiing, including to and from school. And for commuters, Helensvale has its own train and trams stations, and is also handy to the freeway.
