This stunning Bowen Hills inner city investment opportunity is a one-of-a-kind dual key:
Apartment- a two-bedroom residential apartment on the first floor and
Retail Shop - a commercial shopfront on the ground floor.
PRIVATE INSPECTIONS WELCOMED! Simply send an enquiry to contact the agent with a time and date that suits you, and if the property is available, we will book this in for you.
The apartment has an excellent open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space that directly opens onto your private and spacious balcony, which looks out over a lovely, perfectly placed street tree.
The master bedroom has an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, and direct balcony access. The second bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and is directly opposite the main bathroom.
The kitchen is well-sized, with an electric oven, stove, and dishwasher. This was a successful long-term tenancy, and more recently, has been used as an Airbnb with an excellent occupancy rate and revenue stream.
We have recently rented this apartment on a fixed term 6 month lease expiring end of November 2024 for $700 per week
On the ground floor, you would also own shop 3, around 100m2 retail space and shared use of the front street access car parking reserved for these retail shops. Currently occupied by an excellent long-term tenancy, a private gym & personal trainer with a lease in place until March 2026, earning a rent of $3390pm, increasing annually in line with CPI.
Unlike anything else you look at, this presents an unparalleled opportunity. A savvy investor will recognise the benefits of two rental properties on a single purchase. Or an owner-occupier could move in and use the income from the commercial lease to the apartment and pay off the mortgage or bills. In the long term, you could even reinstate the internal stairwell and benefit from your own retail space directly attached to your home. You won't find anything else that presents this opportunity, especially this close to the inner city precinct.
