Contact agent for private viewing
Set along one of the Brisbane River's most tightly held stretches, this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to secure 8,265sqm of absolute riverfront land with 33 metres of direct river frontage, a huge approved flood-free building envelope of 1,319sqm, and scope for a substantial private pontoon or jetty (STCA). Fully serviced and ready to build, it offers a level of scale, privacy and long-term significance that is now almost impossible to find anywhere in Brisbane, let alone so close to the CBD.
- 8,265sqm of absolute riverfront land
- 33 metres of direct river frontage
- 1,319sqm approved flood-free building envelope set within a cleared riverfront area of approximately 4,500sqm with direct river frontage
- Scope for a substantial private pontoon or jetty (STCA)
- Ready to build, with all services already connected to the site
- Emerging Communities zoning with development or subdivision potential (STCA)
- Rare near-city estate scale, privacy and legacy appeal
This is not simply a vacant block. It is a legacy landholding with the scale, presence and exclusivity to become one of Brisbane's landmark private estates. Opportunities of this calibre are extraordinarily rare, and the combination of near-city position, absolute river frontage, flood-free approved building area and estate-scale land may never come to market again in this form.
The approved building envelope is immense by Brisbane standards and provides exceptional flexibility for a substantial architect-designed residence and the wider estate that surrounds it. There is room here for a home of genuine scale, along with expansive outdoor entertaining, pool, tennis court, extensive lawns, formal landscaped gardens and a true arrival experience rarely achievable on near-city riverfront land.
A sealed private driveway winds in from Kenmore Road through established rainforest gardens rich with mature trees, tropical and botanical planting, fruit trees and natural habitat. The approach is quiet, secluded and atmospheric, creating the feeling of a private retreat long before the river comes into view. The site then opens to an expansive cleared riverfront area of approximately 4,500sqm.
The 33 metres of direct absolute river frontage is a defining part of the offering. It is this breadth of frontage, combined with the scale of the land, that sets the property apart and is rarely seen across Brisbane. The result is a sense of openness, separation and possibility that is exceptionally hard to replicate.
For families and lifestyle buyers, the position is equally compelling. You are immersed in nature and complete privacy, yet only minutes from leading schools and the CBD. St Peters Lutheran College, Brisbane Boys' College, Brigidine College and Stuartholme School are all within easy reach, while renowned nearby leisure and lifestyle amenities include Indooroopilly Golf Club, St Lucia Golf Links, the Fig Tree Pocket Equestrian Club and Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. The result is a rare combination of prestige, recreation and natural beauty, with easy access to the airport and both the north and south coasts.
For purchasers with vision, the opportunity extends beyond a single residence. With its Emerging Communities zoning, the property also offers meaningful long-term flexibility, including the potential for development or subdivision, subject to council approval. Whether the ambition is to create one of Brisbane's great private riverfront estates or to explore the site's broader potential over time, the scale, zoning and position make this an unusually versatile offering.
Large-scale, absolute riverfront land with a flood-free approved building envelope of this calibre is no longer a normal market opportunity. It is the sort of holding that may not reappear for years, and perhaps not again at all in this form. Rare in scale, rare in privacy, rare in readiness and rare in significance, 285 Kenmore Road is a once-in-a-generation chance to secure a near-city Brisbane riverfront estate site of genuine legacy quality.
