UNOBSTRUCTED FRONT-ROW VIEWS SPANNING MORETON BAY

Here is the quintessential waterfront island hideaway located at the end of a cul-de-sac. Rarely does a property of this magnitude present itself to the market. Enjoy island and ocean views with spectacular sunsets nestled in a bushland setting.
'Straddie', as it is affectionately known, is North Stradbroke Island, just 16 km from the capital city of Brisbane and accessible by ferry, water taxi, or private boats. To have an island paradise with excellent infrastructure, so close to a capital city, is very special.
Offering welcome fresh sea breezes, natural light, and the hypnotic sounds of the surf from every room. The opportunity to purchase a whopping 4,047 sqm of absolute waterfront land in an idyllic location awaits. Start living the dream!
Two main options are available:
EXISTING DWELLING
The existing dwelling has a lovely history relating to historic Amity. This charming timber cottage was acquired in 1928 from Harbours and Marine, Moreton Island. It was then dismantled and stored at Wynnum, before being transported back to the island and re-erected at 6 Old Ballow St, where it still stands today. Further additions have been made to the home in holiday style with year-round comforts.
"The Beach Bach" is a cosy abode with a large 48 sqm all-weather deck, 4-5 bedrooms, split system air-conditioning, updated kitchen and bathroom. Imagine soirees on the deck with family and friends. There is a sign in the house which says, 'Lose the shoes'. Sound advice.
PROPOSED DWELLING
Plans were council-approved for a new dwelling in 2019 but these plans have now lapsed. The seller is amenable to sharing these plans so that they could be re-submitted back to the council for approval (with minor changes).
The proposed new dwelling was a stunning "Beachcomber" style similar to Nino Sydney's iconic 1960s designs with steel posts, enabling the house to sit comfortably on a sloping site. The signature feature is the long deck/balcony full width on the front of the building, floor-to-ceiling doors, with light-filled spaces, bringing the outside in.
