What's around 9 Menin Road

Charming, classic Queenslander on 850sqm offers two homes in one

Displaying classic street presence with some modern accents, this updated, dual-level 1920s Queenslander, has a self-contained downstairs apartment. The property occupies a large 850sqm block in high-side Corinda, has covered parking for 4 cars and will appeal to those seeking guest accommodation, rental income, a home based office or Airbnb income separated from the primary dwelling upstairs. Loaded with yesterday's charm, modern amenities, and a series of practical, shaded indoor/outdoor living areas, there are plans completed by Architect owners for a future secondary dwelling which would incorporate the existing workshop structure built in 2016. The house interior abounds with original details, including high ceilings, polished timber floors, VJ walls and light enhancing casement windows. The simple, semi open-plan layout promotes excellent cross ventilation through the shared family spaces that lead to a north-facing covered rear deck overlooking the delightful backyard with several mature sub-tropical trees common to Brisbane. The centre of the home is a modern galley-style kitchen featuring Miele appliances, an integrated dishwasher, induction cooktop, abundant storage and bi-fold windows that fold back to act as a bar servery for alfresco entertaining. Upstairs accommodation comprises an east-facing master bedroom with an adjoining bathroom which opens onto the front verandah and access to night time breeze. The other upstairs bedrooms are serviced by an additional bathroom. On the lower level, the versatile self-contained apartment contains an open-plan living area with a full-sized kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, separate laundry and a separate secure entry. The apartment opens onto a north facing covered patio with secluded rear garden views. Additional features include ceiling fans, split system air-conditioning upstairs, undercroft storage and 5kw of solar panels that run both hot water and the air-conditioning. A well-equipped workshop in the garden opens onto a cool paved area beneath the canopy of a majestic Poinciana tree. The property is a 7-minute walk from either Oxley and Corinda train stations which provide high frequency, 20-minute air-conditioned commuter services to and from the Brisbane CBD. The local area offers a great selection of shops, eateries, parkland and prestigious schools, including St Aidan's, with the CBD within a 25-minute drive in non-peak. In a world with rapidly changing circumstances, this versatile home offers sub-tropical amenity, proximity to the city and self-contained rental income with growth opportunity.

Maria and Veronica did a great job marketing...

Maria and Veronica did a great job marketing and selling this property for us. We accepted Maria's judgment that an EOI process would be a better sales tactic than Auction as the property has a narrow range of appeal and limited pool of buyers due to its separated 2 level configuration and no internal stair. Agencies in this part of Brisbane are pushing many sellers to Auction (given market demand) but we were dubious about the competitive benefits of auction for us. Maria was patient and professional throughout the extended period it took us to get the property ready to sell. We trust and like Maria as a 'no BS' sales person. Maria is organised and professional and with Veronica in the business Belle have a very strong reputation in this area The marketing costs were modest and the sale occurred at about week 5 -6 with a returned buyer. We were satisfied with the sale price and an unconditional offer.
