6 Duke Court, Cooloola Cove QLD 4580

Bushfire overlay | 1152m² land | steep price jump from last sale | no flood cover—but site checks matter | rental yield only modest The property carries a confirmed bushfire overlay, which raises insurance costs and may limit some lenders’ appetite. The 1152m² block and 364m² floorplate offer rare scale and subdivision potential in this area, but the current $860,000 list sits above the $605,000 sale only 18 months ago—a 42% increase that needs to be justified by more than a tight cul-de-sac and owner-occupied street. With a mid-rent yield near 4% and no flood or heritage constraints, this holds best as a long-term hold for a buyer who values space over immediate capital upside. Competitively, the four parking spaces, dual living areas, and landscaped creek boundary make this unusual in Cooloola Cove, where most houses sit on smaller lots. The 100% owner-occupied street and reliable NBN are supporting points, but the primary draw is the land—for a buyer wanting room for a shed, a pool, or a granny flat, this is one of the few properties that delivers without zoning friction. It suits a family or a retiree who wants a low-density coastal-lifestyle property and plans to stay put for five years or more. The comparable sales data shows the 2024 sale at $605,000 and the 2020 sale at $345,000. That trajectory signals strong local demand, but the current list is over 40% above the most recent transaction—meaning any buyer should verify whether that jump reflects genuine improvements or simply market heat.
