Offered to market for the first time in nearly 70 years, this is likely to be area's most exciting property sale for a long time to come. The grand pre-war Queenslander boasts an expansive 20 metre frontage with breathtaking never-to-be-built-out city views in one of Coorparoo's most prestigious streets.

Set across 2 lots and enjoying a peaceful, leafy, elevated position surrounded by multi-million-dollar homes, this incredible address presents a golden opportunity to create something spectacular in the exclusive Martha Street Precinct.

Ready for its renaissance, the large home's original character detail, enduring elegance, and pure potential will inspire you from the moment you arrive. Featuring up to four bedrooms, multiple flowing living spaces and a sprawling front verandah, there is untold scope to reconfigure the current floorplan.

Alternatively, you may choose to extend the home into the deep rear yard, add an entertaining deck and upgrade the swimming pool; or further raise the existing built-in lower level (presently just below legal height) to further capitalise of the city skyline panoramas*.

Builders and developers are also encouraged to make their own enquiries regarding subdivision options for the property (zoned Character Residential).

Whatever you decide, there is so much to immediately love and work with right here! Plus, the home is certainly comfortable enough to be enjoyed while future plans for the property are undertaken- minimising holding costs.
