10 Messines Street, Harlaxton, Qld 4350 - More Details
$625,000
"HERE'S one house with TWO STREET FRONTAGES," says selling agent Jacqui Walker, "And proximity just 40 metres to sprawling parkland, with a story unlike any other!!"
"THIS IS THE ORIGINAL HOUSE that once occupied a much larger residential block, with the surrounding development subsequently built around it."
"TODAY, it retains its own distinct identity - spacious set across two-levels and OFFERING SOMETHING QUITE UNUSUAL: access from TWO DIFFERENT STREETS."
I SAID: "2-Street Access for this home!!"
SET on a 270 Sq Mtr Allotment just 160m walk to a Downlands College entrance, NORTH-FACING 10 Messines Street is also known by the SOUTH-FACING strata title address of 11/53 Pascoe Lane.
"HOWEVER it's not your conventional townhouse or unit," says Jacqui.
"OFFICIALLY set within 'Parkside Villas on Pascoe', this property has a background, a character and a layout that sets it apart from the other properties in this complex.
"IT'S EXCITING to grasp what makes this property different," says Jacqui.
"YOU'RE BUYING an original, established home with a history and individuality that sets it apart from the surrounding townhouses."
"ITS history here, and its position gives it an identity all of its own."

"It has its own position, ITS OWN VALUE-ADDING ARRIVAL from Messines Street and its own established character, which allows this Home to present quite differently from the surrounding townhouses."
