Blue-Chip Kelvin Grove - Dual-Income Potential
Solid brick below, classic weatherboard above and two separate living spaces under one roof. This is the kind of Kelvin Grove opportunity investors and savvy owner-occupiers go looking for. Downstairs is already tenanted at $500 per week. Upstairs is vacant and ready, with a rental appraisal of $650 to $720 per week. You could live upstairs and let the rent help with the mortgage, lease both for dual-income potential, or hold and add value over time.
Upstairs, the original home has three bedrooms, a bathroom, separate living and dining rooms and a kitchen. A wraparound deck looks out into the treetops. Timber floors, VJ walls, fretwork archways and coloured-glass doors mean the character is all there. It's ready to be restored to its best. Downstairs, the freshly updated two-bedroom residence has its own front entry, timber-look floors, a modern kitchen with gas cooking, and access to a covered outdoor area and fenced backyard.
The tenant pool here runs deep. QUT students, UQ medical students, doctors and hospital staff all want to live this close to campus, the Herston health precinct and the city. Add the scope to refresh the weatherboard facade, renovate upstairs and further improve the property (STCA), and there's plenty of upside still to unlock.
