Summary: Courtyard Apartment - No More Stairs!
Description: Say goodbye to stairs! This delightful, ground-floor home has coveted, direct garage access and its own, exclusive courtyard entrance. It's so private you'll forget you're part of an apartment complex. Positioned above the 2022, 2011 and 1974 flood levels, this North-facing 'Mutual' (see documents) apartment comes to the market for the first time in 42 years. This is a highly prized home, being parted ways with, by the original owner with great regret, but with fond memories. The home offers low-maintenance tiled floors, air-conditioned, open-plan living, and a private, leafy courtyard. The kitchen features a large pantry, Fisher & Paykel dish-drawer, insinkerator and Westinghouse electric cooking appliances, all overlooking the 42sqm courtyard. With Crimsafe screens and ceiling fans throughout, the home keeps beautifully cool during the steamy Queensland Summer. Both bedrooms open directly onto the courtyard, with the main bedroom enjoying a walk-in robe and ensuite. The main bathroom offers a combined shower and bath tub and houses the internal laundry. The brick complex of 14 residences is set over a sprawling 2069sqm and positioned just a 400m stroll from The University of Queensland, 500m from Guyatt Park CityCat Terminal, 9010m from Ironside State School, a touch under 2km from Toowong Village and Toowong Station, and just over 5km by road from the City. Apartments with direct garage access are a rarity, even among those on the ground floor - this one has dual entry, with one door motorised and the other manual (easily motorised!). It has almost all the perks of a house packed into the low-maintenance, lock-and-go convenience of a unit. The owner has cherished visits from butcher birds, Summer evenings in the courtyard and being able to dig and plant rather than just using pots. If you're sick of stairs, and have been yearning for the quality of life that comes with a ground-floor home with a beautiful outdoor space, do not miss this one.

Summary: The Elms - A once in a decade opportunity to make your own in St Lucia
Description: There is a certain kind of townhouse that simply does not get built anymore, and 2/11 Austral Street is exactly that. Set within the tightly held Elms complex, this is classic 1980s brick architecture at its best, with rich masonry, decorative ironwork, deep balconies and a layout that feels generous, practical and quietly impressive from the moment you step inside. The entry arrives via a private, front facing courtyard, framed by established greenery and that signature brickwork that gives the home its warmth and character. Inside, the living and dining zone is genuinely expansive, anchored by a traditional brick fireplace and a central stairwell that makes the space feel both open and defined. Large glass sliders draw in natural light and connect seamlessly to the outdoor areas, creating an easy flow for everyday living. Across the three level design, the home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a rare two car garage, with the scale of under house storage that buyers always chase and rarely find. While the home is presented largely in original condition, the fundamentals are excellent, offering a solid foundation and clear scope for a considered cosmetic refresh over time. Upstairs, the home opens out to elevated, twin balconies with leafy outlooks across the complex, where palms, open lawn and the pool create a resort style backdrop that is hard to replicate this close to the city. Vaulted ceilings enhance the sense of volume, while the kitchen remains original yet functional with a strong footprint to work with. The bathrooms present the perfect opportunity for an update, letting the next owner elevate the home without needing to reinvent what already works. All of this sits in one of St Lucia's most connected pockets, moments to the University of Queensland, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, cafés, transport and the riverside lifestyle that makes this suburb so tightly held. What we love • Blue chip St Lucia position within the tightly held Elms complex, with only one sale in 13 years • Rare three level townhouse with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two car garage • Front facing courtyard on Austral Street, plus rear access through the complex and twin balconies overlooking the internal grounds • Vaulted ceilings, solid 1980s face brick character and decorative ironwork balconies • Generous living and dining with a statement brick fireplace • Largely original throughout, ready for a cosmetic refresh and value add over time • Private leafy complex with multiple outlooks and a pool • Vacant and ready to move in or lease immediately Location we love • University of Queensland: approx 4 mins drive or 15 mins walk • Taringa train station: approx 4 mins drive or 12 mins walk • Indooroopilly Shopping Centre: approx 6 mins drive • Toowong Village and train: approx 7 mins drive • St Lucia ferry terminal: approx 7 mins walk • Ironside State School catchment and Indooroopilly State High School catchment • Local cafés and essentials along Hawken Drive and Gailey Road: approx 2 to 5 mins drive • Indooroopilly Golf Club and riverside walking and cycling paths: approx 6 to 10 mins drive The auction will be conducted on Saturday, 28th February at 4:30pm onsite. We recommend registering early to reaffirm your interest, as the owner reserves the right to consider offers prior to auction.
