16 Bashford Street, Maryborough QLD 4650

4 beds | 686m² | hardwood build | no flood or bushfire risk | high-yield rental potential This property presents a rare configuration advantage with four robed bedrooms, two double carports, and a 272m² hardwood structure on a 686m² lot, placing it well above typical Maryborough housing stock. The absence of flood, bushfire, or heritage overlays removes common regional acquisition risks, while the 40% building coverage and 24m elevation suggest further development or subdivision potential. It is best suited to a buyer seeking a long-term hold with strong rental yield, as the $605 average weekly income offers a solid buffer against interest rate changes. The catchment for Sunbury State School and Aldridge State High School adds family buyer appeal, and 5G connectivity supports remote work without reliance on NBN speed. The primary risk is the 1976 last sale date, which may indicate deferred maintenance or outdated systems not captured in the listing, and the $675,000 asking price sits above the $606,000 median estimate, requiring careful negotiation. The 7m roof height and under-house storage offer conversion or additional living space opportunities, but these require structural assessment and council approval. A buyer should commission a building and pest inspection before offer, and consider a holding strategy focused on rental income while monitoring local infrastructure improvements for capital growth.
