25/136 Marine Parade, Southport QLD 4215

Waterfront-adjacent Marine Parade | 104m² two-bedder with secure parking | motivated seller meeting market | owner-occupied complex with pool and tennis court This unit sits in a well-maintained 2004 complex where 80% owner-occupancy signals stable neighbours and careful common area upkeep — a rare configuration for Southport’s rental-heavy unit stock. The 104m² floor plan is generous by modern standards, and the secure garage plus in-ground pool and tennis court give it genuine live-in appeal for a downsizer or professional couple. The seller’s willingness to meet the market, combined with the Openn process, creates a window to negotiate below the estimated $824,000 value, especially if you move before the final offer stage. Broadband and 5G coverage are supporting conveniences, not primary drivers. The flood overlay is the main risk — it may affect insurance premiums and resale to cautious buyers, so factor that into your offer. Southport’s 54% auction clearance rate suggests softening demand, meaning you can be disciplined. The property’s strongest logic is as a long-term hold in a waterfront-adjacent pocket with solid school catchment access; it works as a primary residence first, holiday let second. Buy it to live in and let the market catch up.
