Tucked away at the rear of a small, tightly held complex of just five, this light-filled three-storey townhouse offers a rare combination of space, privacy and everyday convenience in a leafy riverside pocket of St Lucia. With a practical layout and excellent separation across levels, it's a great option for couples, young families, downsizers or investors alike.
Set on a quiet, elevated stretch of Sandford Street, the home enjoys a peaceful position next to landscaped common gardens, along with pedestrian access to Glenolive Lane and the popular Riverloop cycling and walking path. Surrounded by parks, river walks and community facilities, the lifestyle here is hard to beat.
Inside, the home is well designed for comfortable living. The lower level features a rare double garage with internal stair access and plenty of storage space, ideal for bikes, tools or outdoor gear. The primary level is dedicated to open-plan living, with a generous kitchen, dining and lounge area flowing out to a large, leafy, shaded courtyard, perfect for BBQs or relaxed outdoor meals. A balcony on the opposite side allows for great natural light and airflow throughout the space.
Upstairs, the two bedrooms are well proportioned and thoughtfully positioned, each with built-in or walk-in wardrobes. The bathroom includes both a bathtub and separate shower, along with a separate toilet for added convenience. There is also potential to reconfigure the layout to add a third bedroom, as others in the complex have done (STA).
Additional features include:
- Spacious three-storey townhouse in a quiet rear position

The University of Queensland is an easy ride away, with great public transport options nearby, including buses along Sir Fred Schonell Drive and Toowong Train Station within walking distance.
Offering space, flexibility and a fantastic lifestyle in one of Brisbane's most popular suburbs, 5/53 Sandford Street is a home that's easy to live in and easy to love.
