17 Matilda Street, Aratula QLD 4309

Scenic Rim acreage | 1.81 ha block | 3-bedroom character home | bushfire overlay present This property offers a rare combination of a generous 1.81 ha lot with a well-proportioned 202 m² house, making it a strong candidate for buyers seeking genuine rural living without excessive land maintenance. The low 1% building coverage preserves the acreage feel, and the two living areas add functional flexibility for families or those working from home. Positioned in a street where 80% of properties are owner-occupied, the neighbourhood signals stable demand from lifestyle buyers. The recent 44-48% value increase from the 2023 sale reflects strong market momentum in the Scenic Rim corridor, and the property is best suited to buyers prioritising space and character over modern finishes. The bushfire overlay is a material consideration that may affect insurance premiums and future development approvals, and should be investigated early. The property is not currently on the open market, which may limit immediate negotiation leverage but also reduces competition for a proactive buyer. The reliable NBN Fixed Wireless connection supports remote work viability. Comparable nearby listings, such as 11 Matilda Street, suggest the upper end of the estimated value range is achievable, but buyers should verify recent sales to confirm current market alignment.
