16/40-42 Khartoum Road, Macquarie Park NSW 2113

Two-bedder in low-density block | only one common wall | east/northwest light | walk to metro and uni | strong owner-occupier appeal This unit sits in a rare configuration for Macquarie Park—a full-brick corner apartment with only one shared wall and high ceilings, which gives it the feel of a small townhouse without the strata complexity of a larger complex. The 88sqm internal footprint is generous for a two-bedroom, and the separate bath and shower plus a large balcony make it suitable for a professional couple or downsizer who values space over prestige. Its position beside Tuckwell Park with direct bus access and a short walk to Macquarie Centre and the metro means the location competes with newer stock but at a lower entry point, and the solid 1973 build offers better sound insulation than many recent developments. The bushfire overlay is a known but manageable risk that may limit some lenders or push insurance costs slightly higher—worth confirming with a broker before exchange. The conflicting value estimates between $725k and $1.1m reflect inconsistent data rather than volatility, so a paid strata report and a building inspection are non-negotiable here to rule out deferred maintenance in a 50-year-old block. For a buyer targeting long-term hold or owner-occupation in a tightening market, this property offers genuine scarcity in layout and location; treat it as a buy-and-hold near infrastructure, not a flip.
