With the Botanic Gardens and Waterfront Place directly across the river and the cosmopolitan lifestyle of New Farm just short ferry-ride away, Pixley Street in Kangaroo Point certainly enjoys one of the finest positions in Brisbane.
What is more, it is one of the few redevelopment sites left on the river in such a central locale. Currently zoned to allow for high-rise development (STCA), the site offers a premium opportunity for investors as well as homeowners wishing to create an exclusive, inner-city, riverside residence.
The 563m² block is positioned at the end of a surprisingly quiet cul-de-sac, engendering a sense of calm serenity, further developed by the wonderfully verdant site. It also boasts an 11.5m frontage with direct access to the boardwalk.
A modest home sits atop the block and has been built over two levels. Each floor is largely independent, with both levels containing a kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms and family rooms. They also both have incredible views of the water and city from the main living areas. Timber floors and high ceilings feature throughout, as do many original features including stained glass windows – testimony to its original condition.
The rear of the block is delightfully leafy, with a pathway winding its way down through mature trees to the boardwalk, ferry stop and the water. From there it is simply a few minutes ferry ride the city’s heart, or a brisk stroll to the many parks and educational facilities nearby.
With such exceptional surrounds, the site really is ideally suited to creating a sensational family abode where all the excitement of the city’s vibrant heart is easily accessible yet the comfort of home remains just across the water.
Riverside property is a finite resource and inner-city land at a premium. When the site in question boasts both these attributes it far surpasses the desirability of all other real estate. Unique, exclusive and highly coveted; this is a site that cannot be replicated and when fully developed will result in a truly unique property that will leave an indelible mark on the Brisbane property scene for year’s to come
