26 Timberlea Drive, Bentley Park QLD 4869
Elevated hillside block | one of last remaining | uninterrupted southwest views | no rear neighbours | established suburb with full amenities
This property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial, elevated parcel of land in an established suburb. Its key strength is the permanent, scenic southwest aspect that cannot be built out, combined with the privacy of having no direct rear neighboursΒa configuration increasingly scarce in Bentley Park. The 700mΒ² block is larger than many in the area and comes with foundational works complete, positioning it ideally for an owner-builder seeking a view-oriented home or a strategic land bank asset. It serves a buyer looking for a distinctive lifestyle position rather than a standard subdivision lot.
The primary decision factors are the bushfire overlay, which mandates specific construction standards and impacts insurance costs, and the sloping nature requiring careful build planning. The commercial logic is in capitalising on the block’s rarity; its value is intrinsically tied to its unique aspect and size, not replicable in new releases. Proceed with a conditional offer contingent on detailed geotechnical and bushfire hazard assessments, targeting a hold-and-build strategy. Our analysis can secure a real market valuation and detail the specific locality risks and build-cost implications of the overlays.
Recent sales context is limited, but the property’s last known sale as a house in 2018 for $360,000 and current listings signalling a land-only sale over $220,000 indicate significant underlying land value shift. While direct comparables are not provided, the noted suburb price range of $550k to $900k for similar properties suggests this block, with its premium features, should anchor toward the upper end of that spectrum, contingent on successful development approval.
