29 Bond Street, West End, QLD 4101

Positioned high on a ridge in central West End, this rare dual-frontage property combines an existing character cottage with the future potential of a DA approved modern extension to be built at the rear.

As it stands, the delightful lightly-renovated original cottage is elevated, flood free and close to everything, with its frontage to Bond Street and parking off Turin Street. Freshly painted, the charming three-bedroom home has a stylish kitchen, central lounge, dining and living, a modern bathroom, office space, a semi-enclosed front verandah, outdoor laundry, garden storage shed and a level grassed yard perfect for children and pets to play.

West End State School is at the end of the street and the home is in the highly sought-after Brisbane State High School catchment. Dining and retail precincts, markets and high street shopping, arts and entertainment, and public transport are all very accessible within easy walking distance on Vulture and Boundary Streets, and Hardgrave and Montague Roads.

As well as its prime position in West End, 29 Bond Street is located moments from South Bank's cultural precinct, Brisbane CBD, Brisbane River and its walking and cycling paths, major education precincts and the evolving Olympics corridor. The house sits in one of Brisbane's most enduringly desirable inner-city neighbourhoods.

Despite its location in the midst of the best 4101 has to offer, the home enjoys a surprisingly quiet setting, protected by the fine-grain residential character of the surrounding streets in West End's original workers cottage estate.

The Bond Street house has been home to the current owners for the past two decades, and is move-in ready for its next occupants. Future value has been enhanced with the striking DA approved plans for the modern extension to the rear facing Turin Street, whilst leaving the Bond Street fascia in place.

Following a 12-month negotiation process with Brisbane City Council by the current owner - an architect who understands the site better than anyone - the hard work is done in creating an idyllic expanded family abode as a future option.

The architectural vision for the extension is a deeply considered inner-city home capable of evolving with modern family life, multi-generational living, home business use or future income potential.

The Development Approval introduces a contemporary multi-level pavilion with roof terrace to the rear of the property, accessed independently via Turin Street. The rooftop terrace is designed to capture sweeping 360-degree views across the city, surrounding neighbourhood and distant mountains.

Other features include an elevated pool and outdoor entertaining with Mt Coot-tha outlook , a dramatic two-storey outdoor room capturing winter sun, a central courtyard connecting old and new, and a private master retreat with walk-in robe and ensuite, enjoying city and mountain views. A rare side-by-side double garage off Turin Street provides secondary street access.

More than simply a house purchase. This is an opportunity to secure a character West End home today, with an architectural future already approved.

We do not expect an opportunity of this calibre to last long in market so do not delay your inspection. We look forward to welcoming you to our next viewing and to answering any questions you may have in the meantime.
