49 Brisbane Street, Murwillumbah NSW 2484

Dual-access block | Approved expansion plans | 1950s character | Walk to CBD The property’s strongest buying case lies in its dual-access configuration and approved development plans, which together offer a rare combination of immediate livability and future upside in a tightly held walkable location. The 512 sqm flat block with second Hartigan Street access supports potential dual-living conversion or a substantial extension, making this house particularly suited to families or buyers seeking multi-generational flexibility without leaving the CBD fringe. The existing character features and solar infrastructure reduce immediate holding costs while the approved plans remove a major uncertainty for those wanting to renovate. The primary risk is verifying the approval status and council attitude toward dual occupancy under current zoning, as this directly affects the property’s highest-value opportunity. Buyers should also investigate flood history given Murwillumbah’s low-lying context, and confirm the lower level’s building condition and legal status. The 22% uplift from the 2022 sale reflects genuine improvements and plan inclusion, but the price sits near the top of the suburb’s established home bracket, meaning the upside is contingent on executing the approved works rather than land appreciation alone.
