79 Dougan Street, Point Vernon QLD 4655

503 sqm land | 251 sqm modern build | 4-bedroom layout | double garage | school catchment clarity | overlay caution. The property presents a substantial modern house on a mid-sized block, with a generous internal footprint that suits a buyer seeking space without a large land maintenance burden. Its location in Point Vernon places it within established school catchments, which strengthens its appeal for owner-occupiers with school-aged children. The estimated rental income suggests reasonable demand, though the property’s primary strength is its recent or upgraded condition, reducing immediate renovation requirements. The main constraint is the presence of bushfire, flood and heritage overlays, which require verification regarding their impact on insurance costs, council approvals and future modifications. The large price increase from 2023 remains unexplained from visible evidence alone, and confidence in the current guide cannot be placed until sale history and any renovation records are confirmed. The unresolved question is whether the overlays materially affect the property’s long-term value or insurability.
