Auction Location: In-Rooms at Place 57 - 285 Shafston Avenue, Kangaroo Point
Set high on the 10th floor of the sought-after Capri apartments, this beautifully presented two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence represents a rare opportunity to secure your place in one of Brisbane's most desirable lifestyle precincts.
For first-home buyers seeking more than an entry-level address, this is an exceptional first purchase: refined, low-maintenance and superbly connected, with resort-style facilities and the very best of Newstead at your doorstep. Equally appealing as an inner-city base or investment, the apartment offers a level of versatility that is increasingly difficult to find in such a highly sought-after location.
Light and space define the interiors. Floor-to-ceiling glass draws abundant natural light into the open-plan living and dining area, while high ceilings and engineered timber flooring lend warmth and contemporary sophistication. The considered layout feels generous and inviting, equally suited to relaxed everyday living and effortless entertaining.
At the heart of the residence, the European Bosch kitchen combines elegant design with everyday functionality. Stone benchtops, custom cabinetry and gas cooking create a polished culinary space that connects seamlessly with the living and dining zones.
Both bedrooms are generously proportioned and include built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom enjoys the privacy of its own ensuite, while a well-appointed second bathroom serves the remainder of the home. A separate internal laundry provides an additional level of practicality rarely overlooked once experienced.
Resort-Style Living at Home
Capri's outstanding resident facilities bring a genuine resort quality to everyday life. Take a swim in the tropical lagoon-style pool, entertain in the recreational barbecue area surrounded by lush landscaping, or enjoy a workout in the large, fully air-conditioned gym overlooking the Capri Waterfall.
The residence also benefits from secure car parking, bike storage, ducted air-conditioning, ceiling fans, recessed block-out blinds, NBN connectivity, secure intercom and camera access, and onsite management. The building is pet-friendly, subject to body corporate approval, and offers the added appeal of low body corporate fees.
Live In, Lock Up or Retain Its Short-Stay Appeal
Few first purchases offer this degree of flexibility. Move in and enjoy an enviable Newstead lifestyle, retain the apartment as a convenient city base, or explore the opportunity to continue its established short-term rental operation.
The property is currently connected to a short-term rental listing associated with Superhost status, with projected earnings of approximately $50,000 per annum. This gives purchasers the potential to acquire not only an outstanding residence, but also a property with an established short-stay profile in a location with broad lifestyle appeal.
An Address of Exceptional Convenience
Newstead places some of Brisbane's most celebrated dining, retail and riverside destinations within easy reach. Gasworks Plaza, James Street, the Brisbane River, cafés, restaurants, bars and boutique shopping are all moments away, creating a lifestyle defined by choice and convenience.
The Brisbane CBD is less than two kilometres from home, while Brisbane Airport is approximately 15 minutes away by car, subject to traffic. Whether commuting, travelling or enjoying a weekend close to home, this location makes every part of city life feel effortless.
For first-home buyers, this is a compelling opportunity to begin with an address of genuine distinction. For investors, it offers flexibility and established short-stay appeal. Opportunities combining this position, lifestyle and versatility are rare.
