Queenslander on 3 acres | 2019 build with granny flat income | Mountain views, Scenic Rim | Self-sufficient infrastructure included This property offers a rare combination of a modern Queenslander on a usable 1.2-hectare block with genuine income potential from its secondary dwellings. The 2019 build means low maintenance, while the granny flat and studio provide immediate rental yield or multi-generational living options. For a buyer seeking lifestyle acreage without sacrificing contemporary finishes, this holds strong appeal. The wraparound verandas and mountain views are not just aesthetic,they anchor the property’s desirability in a market where character homes on flat, fenced land are scarce. The 3kW solar, rainwater tanks, and town water connection reduce ongoing costs, making this suitable for both owner-occupiers and investors targeting the Scenic Rim’s growing demand for self-sufficient rural living. The main risk is the bushfire overlay, which may affect insurance premiums and financing for some buyers. This should be quantified early in due diligence. The lack of recent comparable sales in Kooralbyn means pricing is less anchored, so a buyer should commission a local appraisal to validate value. The granny flat and studio offer a clear path to offset holding costs,leasing them could generate $400–$600 weekly, improving cash flow. For an owner-occupier, this property works as a permanent home with passive income; for an investor, it is a low-density, high-appeal holding in a lifestyle corridor. Hold for capital growth driven by Scenic Rim’s migration trends, or use as a dual-income retreat.
