21 Stonehaven Court, Airlie Beach QLD 4802

Elevated cul-de-sac | Bushfire overlay | Holiday rental income | Strong growth suburb | 5G & NBN This property presents a dual proposition of high rental yield and lifestyle amenity, tempered by a defined bushfire risk which necessitates insurance and compliance costs. Its established holiday rental operation provides immediate commercial logic, while the multi-level design on a 661m² lot offers scarcity value in a supply-constrained suburb. For a buyer, it functions best as a leveraged investment with personal use potential, demanding a hold strategy to capitalise on the area’s pronounced capital growth trajectory. Competitively, the house’s private pool, proximity to the marina and lagoon, and its larger-than-average building footprint create a defensible position in the market. It serves the dominant local buyer profile—young professionals or couples—exceptionally well, while its income stream from tourism broadens its appeal to out-of-area investors. The 8.6% population growth underscores sustained demand, making this a rare offering that blends investment pragmatism with coastal living. Your next step is to quantify the bushfire mitigation costs against the rental premium to validate the yield. Nearby, 19-21 Stonehaven Court (730m²) sold for $1,165,000 in 2021 and now carries an estimated value of $1,268,000, indicating solid appreciation. Its rental range of $1,030-$1,275 per week supports the income potential for this subject property, reinforcing its investment rationale in a rising market.
