Last Listing description (May 2024)

As any older Aussie can attest, land is your ticket to wealth. While others favour newish homes on tiny blocks, the savvy think land: LOTS OF IT.
For instance, had you bought 1,069m2 close to the coast in Sydney way back when, you would have been immeasurably better off than if you bought a tiny block down the road with a nice new house, but which now is a crumbling mess. Whereas buildings decay, land is immortal so GET AS MUCH AS YOU CAN.

The Land is Grand

With outdoor vastness of life in the country, this flattish, fully fenced quarter acre with 24.7m OF ROAD FRONTAGE will suit people who:
- require a superabundance of parking
- desire space for their active children or animals to roam free
- love the great outdoors
- desire future subdivisional potential
- desire ready dual-living potential
- have awareness that large blocks close to infrastructure in growing cities tend to become highly valuable over time

When snaring much land like this - especially for a price like this - you might expect no abode, or at least one lacking appeal. Instead, we have a high-ceilinged beauty, with charm aplenty, which merits your inspection like few others.

- Near fully renovated home with soaring ceilings in the main living area
- Three bedrooms, including master with walk-in robe and ensuite
- Gaping vehicular access
- Automatic double garage, plus shade sails, plus secure, undercover parking for a van
- North-east facing, near-new kitchen with walk-in pantry
- Roomy patio with the ideal aspect
- Fully fenced, stellar backyard with stacks of room for a pool AND granny flat
- Classic wet bar
- Separate laundry
- 10kw solar
- Two garden sheds
- Fruit trees galore

Location, Location
With its wide streets and low density, this part of Helensvale is fantastic and about a million times better than a new subdivision. Areas like this are a prized rarity because Council wants higher density (to curb urban sprawl) and developers like higher density (to make more profit), but the average person craves low density for their basic wellbeing. In other words, demand for sparse areas like this - which now rarely are built - can only soar.

Helensvale has shopping malls, train and tram stations and abundant leisure options. For parents, this is a place where kids can roam happily on bikes, relieving you of the usual burden of parental taxiing. And for commuters, Helensvale has its own train and tram stations, and is also handy to the freeway.

- 650m to Club Helensvale
- 900m to Helensvale Plaza
- 2km to Helensvale State School (catchment area)
