For the family wanting to move straight in the large private block and tranquil location offers enhanced safety and peace of mind for the raising of their family with all the necessities nearby including parks, schools, shops and medical.
There are three reasons why this property is so unique compared to most other Forest Lake properties for sale now. Location, Location and Location.
LOCATION: A block of this considerable size, 831m2, is hard enough to find in Forest Lake but its aspect positioned on the south southeasterly side of a gentle slope provides many other benefits that usually only become apparent after living there for a while.
Its aspect and position place it nearly as far away as it is possible to be, in Forest Lake, from the noise of the Centenary Hwy and Logan Motorway. This means the property, at the end of a cul de sac, really is quiet and sheltered from traffic noise.
The cul de sac spills into a natural park area that has walking and bike pathways that connect you to the extensive pathway network that services all parts of Forest Lake. We would recommend the 300m walk to Homestead Park where you can sit and wonder at the majesty of the giant Kauri pines there.
Peace of mind also comes from knowing it is in a FLOOD FREE location.
[One of our favorite activities was a gentle 500m stroll to the dog off leash park where you could sit and take in the views of the Brisbane CBD, or sneak over the road to Maccas for a coffee]
LOCATION: It is hard to believe that in this peaceful tree lined street you are only 16 Km* from the Brisbane CBD with easy access by train, bus, bikeway or car.
Some of the facilities that are within a 1.2Km radius are:
Richlands Train Station(35 mins. to the CBD),
City Bus stop(700m) connects to the train station, Mt Ommaney (6.5Km)and Indooroopilly (12Km)Shopping Malls on the way to CBD,
Richlands Plaza(900m)(Woolworths etc),
IGA local Grocer etc(800m),
Hotel Richlands(700m),
Various Medical Centers, restaurants, gyms and of course schools. Forest Lake State School(1Km) and St Johns Anglican College(820m) are the nearest.
New evolving Richlands shopping and dining precincts (1Km)
[Another favorite activity of mine was to jump on the bicycle and head into the city being able to keep off the roads all the way using the Western Fwy bikeway and its associated bikeway network. Detours up beautiful Mt Coot-Tha Forest(14Km)were also possible on the way.]
LOCATION: Although out of sight, proximity to the Centenary, Logan and Ipswich motorways provide easy access to the Gold Coast and all points north, east or west for a quick getaway in the car.
Other Educational Institutions nearby include Grand Avenue State School(2.4Km),Forest Lake State High(2.2km), Australian International Islamic College(2.9km), Griffith Uni(10km), University of QLD St Lucia(13Km).
There are many sporting facilities locally including the Lions Soccer fields and clubhouse(1.5Km) Oxley Golf Club(4Km) and Suncorp Stadium is only 16 Km down the highway.
If you still need more local shopping experiences go no further than the Forest Lake Shopping Center(2.5Km) where the selection includes Woolworths, Coles, Kmart, Aldi and many smaller vendors.
There is also Bunnings at Qxley(5Km) and the Willawong City Waste Station is only 5Km for a trailer load of household waste from your many projects around the yard.
Brisbane International Airport is 30Km away or the famous lake with lakeside caf is only 2km.
[We always enjoyed a run down and around the lake in the early morning]

So, what price for space, peace and quiet in Forest Lake?
Away from the tollway & motorway noise during those quiet moments, eves that do not sit on the fence line, so a respectful distance from the neighbours..private fenced back yard to relax and allow the pets and family to run around. Room to plan for your future as needs change, a pool? Parking for a caravan? You decide what to do with all that space so near to the Brisbane CBD.
For the investor we know no investment is guaranteed but this property comes as close as you are likely to find in the property domain for this price range. Even without the approaching Olympic Games the features of this property are so rare to find at this distance from the CBD, in such a sort after suburb, that a significant capital gain in the near future is almost assured.
Book an inspection soon and make an offer as this property is unlikely to remain in this market for long.
