This quite remarkable property presents many options for the astute buyer. Nestled on 7154m2 only a few minutes’ walk from Narangba railway station, surrounded by trees of every conceivable kind, is a pre-federation five bedroom home with a full-length verandah overlooking the expansive front lawn and front gardens. That’s the first taste of a magical experience as you explore the rainforest and woodland themes that characterise this peaceful setting. You could be forgiven for thinking you’re a long way from suburbia as you stroll the network of paths criss-crossing among the trees, or as you emerge onto the back lawn area with its exotic fruit trees and view of the distant hills.

On a practical level, the proximity to the railway station and local shops, combined with Res A zoning could well indicate future development potential, or even the establishment of a second dwelling on the property. Developers would do well to take a look and assess the opportunity, as sites of this size close to transport infrastructure are becoming increasingly rare.

The home, with its traditional high ceilings and timber flooring, will set racing the pulse of anyone who loves these authentic Queensland icons there is so much potential to develop your dream here.

The old swimming pool has been removed, but the situation is ideal for your new pool to be installed; surrounded by sweeping lawns and lush vegetation.

Narangba, of course, is one of the most popular destinations among Brisbane’s northern suburbs. Its location gives it the advantage of easy access to the Bruce Highway, which means both the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane CBD are about 40 minutes away, while the beaches of Redcliffe Peninsula are only 15-20 minutes driving. Major shopping can be found at either North Lakes or Morayfield, both only a ten minute drive away. All the other things that make city living so convenient hospitals, schools and so on, are all close by, but Narangba maintains a small town character that makes it a charming place to live.
