Positioned in one of Brisbane's most sought-after inner-city pockets, 49 Geelong Street presents an exceptional combination of character, lifestyle and versatility, offering buyers the freedom to enjoy it as a substantial family residence or take advantage of its council-approved dual-living configuration and existing rental appeal.
Behind its classic Queenslander façade, this beautifully renovated home celebrates the character of its early-1900s origins while introducing the comfort and functionality expected of modern living. Intricate high ceilings, VJ panelling, polished timber floors, coloured glass windows and French doors create an immediate sense of warmth, while thoughtful contemporary upgrades ensure the home is equally suited to busy family life.
At the heart of the upper level, generous living spaces connect effortlessly with a large rear entertaining deck, creating an inviting setting for relaxed afternoons, family dinners and entertaining friends. Beyond, landscaped surrounds frame an impressive 8m x 4m saltwater swimming pool, delivering a private inner-city retreat just moments from Brisbane's CBD.
What truly sets this property apart is its flexibility.
With council-approved dual living and an independent two-bedroom residence downstairs, the home opens the door to a range of possibilities. Extended families can enjoy the benefit of separate yet connected accommodation, while investors or owner-occupiers can explore the income potential of leasing part of the property while retaining the remainder for themselves. Previous rental listings confirm parts of the property have been offered to the rental market, reinforcing its established tenancy appeal.
Both kitchens have previously been documented with Miele appliances and Caesarstone benchtops, while additional features including remote electric blinds, an 8.8kW solar system with Fronius inverter, water tank and secure two-car accommodation further enhance the home's everyday practicality.
And then there is the location.
Set in a leafy East Brisbane street approximately 2km from the Brisbane CBD, the home places an enviable inner-city lifestyle within easy reach. The riverfront and Mowbray Park are nearby, while East Brisbane State School and prestigious Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie) are both located within East Brisbane.
