There's a moment when you walk into a home and recognise that what's in front of you simply can't be recreated - only restored. This is that moment. The ornate circular archway that frames the living spaces, the rich original hardwood floors catching the afternoon light, the generous sun room that spills across the front of the home - the bones here are extraordinary, and the craftsmanship on display is the kind that collectors of genuine Brisbane character spend years searching for. Tucked into a cul-de-sac off the main Kelvin Grove Road, the home enjoys a peaceful, low-traffic setting that belies just how connected this address really is.

The opportunity this home presents is equally rare. Zoned Character Residential (CR2 Infill), the 562m² block - sloping in the right direction - opens the door to a compelling value-add play: construct a second dwelling at the rear of the property and obtain a separate title, all while retaining the existing character home at the front. CR2 zoning is one of the few residential designations in Brisbane that accommodates this type of dual-dwelling subdivision, making this block genuinely development-ready in a way most inner-city lots simply are not. Held by the same family since 1990, this is just the second time in 36 years the property has come to market - combined with a generous layout, two substantial outdoor spaces, and a walk to the Kelvin Grove Urban Village, QUT campus, and the Kelvin Grove State College catchment less than 3km from the CBD, the canvas could not be better set.

Key Property Features:

• Original Queenslander character home on 562m² - slopes favourably for future extension/development
• Positioned in a cul-de-sac off Kelvin Grove Road
• Ornate decorative circular archway
• Original polished hardwood timber floors throughout

Location:
Positioned on Kelvin Grove Road with bus routes at your door and everything the Kelvin Grove Urban Village has to offer a short walk away.
