What's around 23 Shelley St

Family Friendly Home and Yard on 810m2 (2 lots) with Endless Opportunities…

This spacious and unique post-war home built circa 1948 is situated on a large, flat 810m2 block on two separate titles and offers endless opportunities. Suited to families seeking a large inner city backyard for the children to play that can’t be found in narrow lot homes, or to the savvy land bankers following the surge in demand for large blocks in the inner CBD suburbs. Or, the investor wanting a quality rental to add to their portfolio, or the developer now seeking a quality splittable block of land for a knock down and rebuild.. So many options….. Showcasing a modest façade, this home with character features hardwood polished timber floors, terracotta roof tiles and decorative cornicing. 2.7m high ceilings in the main areas of the home offer a feeling of internal spaciousness not unlike the new narrow lot homes built today. Updated with air conditioning to the main living areas, move your family into this homely residence which hosts three generous bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling built-ins and a quality kitchen by Enigma Kitchens with ample cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances. You are also sure to enjoy the separate formal lounge and dining, second living area/sunroom and casual meals area. Well designed, this layout seamlessly flows together creating a home with a modern feel and semi- open living spaces. Generously sized, let your children run free in the lush, green, lovingly maintained Queensland Blue Couch yard, ideal for those lazy afternoon picnics, games of cricket or waterslides. It’s the backyard you have always wanted for your children that has the added bonus of being fully fenced if you have a loved hound and quite a rarity to find in the inner-city area. This is the great Aussie backyard that we all desire and comes complete with a rear cabana for a quiet afternoon drink or outdoor dining area after sunset. Ready to move straight in, you also have the option to renovate/extend the current home with existing architectural approved plans, or knockdown and rebuild one large home across the two lots or build two new homes, there are so many options (STCA). Further, this fantastic family home features attic storage, a 5kw solar system, water tank, insulation and man cave with separate toilet and tool room at rear of the shed. Off-street parking for cars/boat/caravan and two driveways means no shuffling the cars for the early departure. The home has had the original wiring and plumbing updated to current standards and a new switchboard installed. Perfectly located within 10 minutes of the CBD and a short stroll to the end of the street to catch the bus or a 5 minute walk to the Cannon Hill train station. Quality schools are within walking and bike riding distances including Cannon Hill Anglican College (CHAC), Oliver Plunkett’s Catholic Primary, Mayfield State School and Cannon Hill State School. There are also a number of parks and recreation grounds around the suburb. Walk to Cannon Hill Plaza and the new East Village precinct and enjoy the blossoming cafés and lifestyle amenities popping up nearby. While Westfield Carindale and the Gateway Motorway are only minutes away and for the boatie that wants to chase the Threddie’s in the river, the Colmslie Boat Ramp is a 5-minute drive! For the golfer, the soon to be completed Minnippi Golf Corse will soon be opening to enjoy. Enjoy a similar lifestyle to residents in Bulimba, Balmoral and Morningside at a fraction of the price.

Outstanding results!

After living at this home for 17 years, it was time to move on with a growing family and emotions were high. The property had so many offerings for future owners to either enjoy the spacious lawns and gardens, knock down and rebuild a new home, knock down and build 2 homes or renovate..... many of the agents we initially approached were looking at the easy option of valuing and conditioning us to "developers" wholesale pricing and not genuinely embracing the other suitable options that would obtain a higher price. Carla not only took this route but exceeded our expectations and for this, we rate Carla's ability to see the bigger picture and respect the properties multiple offerings that delivered the best outcome highly. We are extremely pleased with the professional service offered and wish the new owner all the best. Yours faithfully, Matt and Anita
