Overview

SUBSTANTIAL THREE-LEVEL HOME WITH SOLID BONES & SCOPE TO TRANSFORM

Auction Location: On-Site Positioned in a peaceful pocket of St Lucia, 16 Fifth Avenue is a substantial four-bedroom residence offering exceptional scale, a highly functional three-level layout and the solid foundations for a future transformation. Requiring work throughout, the home presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to renovate, update and add value while retaining the generous proportions and versatile floorplan that already exist. With approximately 300sqm of internal living, there is plenty of space to work with and an excellent foundation for a significant family home. The lower level immediately establishes the scale of the property, with a striking void creating a sense of openness and providing a strong architectural feature. A secure double garage and substantial storage complete this level. The main living level is centred around a spacious lounge, opening to a private balcony with leafy outlooks. Further through the home, the expansive kitchen, dining and family zone provides the heart of the residence, with excellent proportions and direct connection to the outdoor areas. Sliding doors lead to a generous rear patio and green space, offering a private setting that could be further enhanced as part of a renovation. Upstairs, four bedrooms provide excellent separation from the living areas. The generously proportioned master suite includes a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite and private balcony with elevated leafy and mountain views. Three additional bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, are serviced by a central family bathroom and separate toilet. While the home requires updating, the underlying scale, layout and construction provide an excellent base for buyers with vision. The opportunity is to take what is already here — substantial living areas, multiple outdoor spaces, excellent separation and a highly sought-after location — and create something truly tailored to your needs. Positioned close to The University of Queensland, St Lucia Golf Links, the Brisbane River and Toowong Village, with easy access to leading schools, public transport and Brisbane CBD, the location is as compelling as the opportunity. For buyers seeking a substantial property with solid bones, genuine scope to renovate and the potential to create a significant family home in one of Brisbane's most tightly held inner-western suburbs, 16 Fifth Avenue is worthy of inspection.
