14 Permien Street, Norman Gardens QLD 4701

Elevated city-view house | renovated pool and entertaining | versatile four-car parking | bushfire overlay noted. This property occupies a competitive position in Norman Gardens through its elevated city-view lot and extensive high-end renovations. The inground pool with granite tiles and schist stone walls, combined with the undercover entertaining area and alfresco city views, creates a rare lifestyle package that most suburban houses lack. The 362-square-metre building footprint provides genuine versatility: a convertible double garage with epoxy flooring, a separate rumpus room, study, and two living areas mean this house suits a professional couple or small family wanting both space and quality. The recent renovations to interiors and the pool effectively eliminate immediate capital expenditure, making it a turnkey proposition. Rental yield potential near 4.3 percent adds investor logic. The bushfire overlay is the primary risk, likely raising insurance premiums and possibly affecting lender appetite, so buyers should obtain a specific insurance quote and confirm finance terms early. The 2014 purchase price is not a useful benchmark given the renovations. The property’s strength lies in its combination of views, pool-focused entertaining, and flexible parking—features that are scarce in this price bracket. A buyer should hold this house for medium-term capital growth driven by suburb appreciation and its differentiated amenity, while using the rental income as a buffer if not occupying immediately.
