Offered to the market for the very first time, this exceptional property presents one of Aitkenvale's – and arguably Townsville's – most sought-after development opportunities.
Positioned on a substantial 2,023m² double frontage allotment, this tightly held family property has remained in the same family for almost a century. It is a testament to the original owners' foresight in recognising the long-term potential of Aitkenvale, a suburb that continues to be one of Townsville's most centrally located and highly connected residential precincts.
Situated in the heart of Aitkenvale, the property enjoys outstanding convenience, with major shopping centres, schools, medical facilities, sporting amenities and commercial services all within close proximity. Lavarack Barracks, James Cook University and Townsville University Hospital are all just a short drive away, making this a highly desirable location for owner occupiers, investors and developers alike.
Adding further appeal is the recently announced Defence Housing Australia (DHA) master-planned residential redevelopment located approximately 1.1 kilometres away. This significant redevelopment is expected to further strengthen demand for quality residential land in the area and highlights the continued investment and confidence in Aitkenvale's future.
Whether you're looking to renovate, landbank, develop (subject to council approval), or simply secure a substantial parcel of land in a premium central location, opportunities of this calibre are becoming increasingly rare.
The existing residence is in original yet well-maintained condition and offers comfortable living while you plan for the future.
