75 Rawlinson Street Murarrie QLD 4172

Renovated post-war cottage | 200m² lot, 191m² internal | Murarrie’s tight supply | suited to owner-occupier or yield investor This property presents a rare configuration edge in Murarrie: a fully renovated post-war house on a compact 200m² lot with an internal area almost matching the land size. The 2023 renovation—stone benchtops, dishwasher, electric cooking, air-conditioned living, covered timber deck, and solar panels—removes immediate capital expenditure. For a buyer, this means the house is move-in ready with low maintenance obligations, a strong position in a suburb where median days on market are only 15 and owner-occupancy sits at 75%. The property best serves a first home buyer seeking a turnkey cottage near the river and parkland, or an investor targeting a 2.8% gross yield with potential to lift rent to $800 per week. The school catchment for Murarrie State School (0.6km) adds family appeal without premium pricing. The flood overlay is the primary risk, requiring due diligence on insurance costs and resale liquidity in a softening market—this is not a bushfire or heritage concern, but it may narrow the buyer pool. The 200m² lot limits future subdivision or extension, so the property is best held as a long-term hold for capital growth tied to Brisbane’s broader upward cycle, not as a development play. Given the 14.2% suburb growth and 0% auction clearance rate, a private treaty purchase with a 30-day settlement is the logical path. Hold as a low-fuss residential investment or owner-occupied base; do not overpay for the renovation premium in a flood-affected pocket.
