51 Rusden St, Kelvin Grove is brimming with potential in more ways than one. Set over 3 levels in a quiet street a stones throw from Kelvin Grove Village and Kelvin Grove State College, its size and functionality are a rare find so close to the city.
This home provides a great opportunity for a large or combined family unit (or even a multigenerational family unit) to all have plenty of space for living.

3 Decks and a paved courtyard providing ample entertaining space.
Elevated leafy outlook, with great privacy.
Beautiful original colonial features, including timber flooring and VJ's on the upper level, original fretwork and French doors still in place.
Move straight in and enjoy this lovely farm house style home or renovate into a spectacular family home with a mix of old-world charm and modern conveniences.
With so many bedrooms it would also make a great rental property, or separate the bottom level to get the best of both worlds - family home and rental income.
Layout:
The front door enters the middle level, which is where you will find the central living area of the home. A large timber kitchen overlooks the dining and living areas that open out to the rear timber deck via folding glass doors.
