An 'old world' manision on almost 2000sq m of land with city views has sold under the hammer for $7.3m --- $1 million more than it sold for in February 2022.

Located at 59 Buena Vista Ave at Coorparoo, it was marketed and sold by NGU Real Estate Toowong.

That price is $1 million higher than the residential record set for the same property in February 22, when it sold for $6.3 million.

Agent Nhan Tran said there were four registered bidders, with two active.

"The first bid of $m really knocked two out of the park," he said.

It was bought by a buyer based overseas, who also has a property in Brisbane.

"It was popular given its land size and city views," Mr Tran said.

"The house has demolition approval and is on arguably one of Brisbane's best streets."

Mr Tran said the new owner was still considering what to do next with the property.

"It is a big house," he said.

The property was a deceased estate and sits next to a new townhouse complex.

It is zoned 'emerging community' by the Brisbane City Council.

Meanwhile, a local family swooped in with an offer to good to refuse, landing 173 Kennedy Tce at Paddington for a price in the mid $5 millions.

That puts it squarely in the top 10 sales fpor leafy Paddington, where the record price was set at $10.35 million in 2009.

That was for heritage-listed Glentworth at 34 Howard St, which was built in 1879.

Other top sales in the suburb include 11 Upper Cairns Terrace ($8.2m in 2022), 22 Reading St ($8m in 2021), 197 Fernberg Rd ($7.75m in 2021), 56 View St ($6.15m in 2023), 175 Fernberg Rd ($5.8m in 2022), and 28 Upper Cairns Terrace ($5.8m in 2023).
