SOLD AFTER AUCTION FOR $70,000 MORE THAN AUCTION OFFER – 17 Ferndale St, Lota – 3 Bed / 2 Bath / 1 Car on 607sq m
This 1920s Queensland is in one of Lota’s best pockets and has been a long-term investment for its Perth-based owners until six months ago when they made the move to Queensland. They have now found an acreage property in New South Wales and are selling 17 Ferndale St after 25 years.
Downsizers, first-home buyers and existing homeowners keen to move in to this neighbourhood have been among the 42 groups of buyers to inspect the property before auction day. Agent: Xander Evans, Harcourts Solutions Group – Windsor; Auctioneer: Christian Hamilton
SOLD FOR $1.08m – 8 Carlton Tce, Wynnum – 3 Bed / 1 Bath / 2 Car on 405sq m
This 1970s lowset brick home is coming to market for the first time since it was built in the 1970s and is pulling interested buyers from as far as Emerald in Central Queensland who recognise the premium location and are dreaming of a move to the bayside whether it’s now with the kids, or later without them.
“I’ve got families who are only interested in this end of Carlton Street,” Belle Property Manly selling agent Kate Francis says.
“It is a quiet spot, there’s no through traffic and it’s a family-oriented section.”
All buyers are wanting to either move in now or build a new home to complement the character homes that dominate this elevated location with several buyers currently living in the Tarragindi, Hawthorne and Cannon Hill areas.
“Even though we’ve had this boom, you’re still buying in the bayside before it really takes off,” Kate says. Agent: Kate Francis, Belle Property Manly; Auctioneer: Justin Nickerson, Apollo Auctions
FAILED TO SELL – 165 Macrossan Ave, Norman Park – 4 Bed / 4 Bath / 2 Car on 405sq m
This home is seven years old and the current owners have held on to it for the past four. It’s bold modern facade and landscaped front gardens make it a feature of Macrossan Ave where the street record was set in April this year, when 100 Macrossan Ave sold for $1.68m.
The house has a media room with a bar, a covered alfresco, outdoor kitchen, and an in-ground swimming pool with solar heating. House prices in Norman Park have increased by 7.1 per cent in three months, according to PropTrack’s Market Trends data for July.

3PM – 14 Servius Ave, Seven Hills – 5 Bed / 3 Bath / 3 Car on 696sq m
The owners of this six-month-old home are first time developers who bought the property toward the end of the Covid dip in September 2020 and built during the Covid building surge. “So what they saved on the land, they spent on the build,” Place Bulimba selling agent Antonio Puopolo says.
The Hamptons inspired home has 2.7m high ceilings and louvred windows, with skylights and large windows bringing sunlight into the living areas downstairs. “I see the same buyers at knockdowns, vacant land and new home sales at the moment, and there are a few concerns with building costs.” Agents: Shane Hicks and Antonio Puopolo, Place Bulimba; Auctioneer: Sam Kelso
4PM – 19 Cuthbert St, Albany Creek – 4 Bed / 2 Bath / 2 Car on 607sq m
It’s been three years since a four-bedroom house has been offered for sale on Cuthbert St and this property could be set up to offer dual living options for buyers with plenty of living space downstairs.
The property has an in-ground swimming pool, a large rear deck, solar panels and a modern kitchen and bathrooms. Agent: Marilyn Davies, Harcourts Pinnacle, Aspley. Auctioneer: Christian Hamilton
