A true selling point of 2/1 Glenquarie Place is that it is one of the few homes with a 4061 postcode located within the catchment area of Ashgrove State School. Ashgrove SS is one of the most academically successful and technologically advanced primary schools in Queensland; due to its popularity, enrolments are exclusively for students within the catchment area. For older children, The Gap State High School is just a few moments away, or alternatively the private schools of Ashgrove are within easy reach.
You will have an easy commute to Brisbane city, with the 380, 381, 384, and 385 bus routes less than 5 minutes walk away. Taylor Range Country Club is a 400m walk, and offers multiple swimming pools, tennis & squash courts, plus BBQ facilities for family and friends. The Gap Shopping Village is just a 2 minute drive, where you will find supermarkets, medical facilities, and other retail stores.
This property is currently tenanted until July 2018, with a rental return of $520/week. Reap the benefits of a strong rental return until you move in, or alternatively this is an attractive investment opportunity as tenants will appreciate the features on offer at this townhome. Due to its appeal to a wide variety of buyer demographics, it is unlikely that this property will be available for long; contact Ben Knight for further information or inspect this weekend!
