There is something about a genuine Queenslander that simply cannot be replicated.
The soaring ceilings, VJ walls, timber floors and traditional detailing give 1 Torquay Road the warmth and character buyers fall in love with, while its position in the heart of Redland Bay brings the water and bayside lifestyle wonderfully close to home.
Already offering glimpses towards the bay from its entertaining deck, this is a property that also invites you to imagine what could come next.
For buyers looking for a home they can make their own over time, the generous space beneath the existing residence may present an exciting opportunity to explore raising the Queenslander and potentially capturing even more of those beautiful bay views, subject of course to all necessary approvals and professional advice.
For now, however, there is plenty to love exactly as it is.
Step inside and the character of the home immediately takes over. High ceilings and traditional VJ walls create a wonderful sense of space, while polished timber floors, fretwork and an abundance of natural light provide the unmistakable charm of a classic Queensland home.
The modern open-plan kitchen sits at the heart of the house, connecting beautifully with the generous dining area and providing an easy transition to the bay-facing deck.
A large separate lounge provides another substantial living zone, while three bedrooms and the versatile sleepout offer flexibility for families, guests, working from home or simply creating that extra space Queenslanders are so wonderfully good at providing.

And then there is the location.
Torquay Road places you within a genuinely bayside neighbourhood where the water is not something you need to drive across town to enjoy. Walk to the end of the street and you are at the bay.
Launch a kayak, throw in a fishing line, wander along the waterfront or simply enjoy living in a part of Redland Bay where weekends can feel a little more like holidays.
Everyday conveniences are also close at hand, including Redland Bay Village, Woolworths, cafés, shops, medical facilities and public transport, together with local walking tracks, parks, a dog park and skate facilities.
1 Torquay Road is not about buying a brand-new house that looks like every other house.
It is an opportunity to own a piece of Queensland character, enjoy it now and, perhaps, create something quite special for the future.
