Summary: Low-Maintenance Brick Unit in Great Location
Description: Positioned in the corner of the first floor in a two-storey, brick walk-up, this tidy, low-maintenance apartment enjoys a leafy outlook in an extremely handy location, surrounded by parks, cafes and conveniences, just a brief commute to The University of Queensland, Toowong Village, and only a couple of blocks from Ironside State School. It's a fantastic entry-level property for a first-home buyer or first-time investor, with low body corporate fees making the journey a little more affordable. The home offers ultra-low-maintenance timber-look flooring throughout the living spaces, with the exception of the carpeted main bedroom. The functional kitchen enjoys a leafy outlook, with cabinetry to-the-ceiling and a low-profile dish-drawer. The open-plan living area has both air-conditioning and a ceiling fan, and opens onto the covered balcony. Both bedrooms offer mirrored built-ins, the bathroom houses an internal laundry and a separate W/C rounds out the sensible floor plan. Downstairs, a tandem lock-up garage allows for two cars, or one plus ample storage. Situated on a corner block, the complex already feels quite private from neighbouring properties, but the layout further endows the privacy for unit 5, as it does not share a single wall with another apartment. The positioning also allows for excellent breezes and cross-ventilation. As for location, Ironside State School parents will love the 750m walk or drive to the lower school gate, UQ students will appreciate the brief 1.6km commute and CBD workers have it pretty good too, with easy connections to bus routes and Guyatt Park CityCat. Toowong Village is only a touch over 1km away for all your shopping needs, plus access to trains, and there's a great cafe less than 100m from your front door, with plenty of trees to sit under in Jack Cook Park while you enjoy your morning brew. Just a little further in the opposite direction is the Gailey Fiveways, with restaurants, seafood shop, a great bakery (King of Cakes) and other conveniences. It's all at your fingertips here! The tenant is moving out towards the end of January, so you won't have to wait long to move in! For access to the information page, including building and pest inspection reports, rental appraisal, seller's disclosure and other important information and documents, please submit an email enquiry. This will also ensure you receive all future updates for the property.

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.
