SOLD BY FINLEY MOORE

Grab your opportunity to secure a move-in ready two-bedroom apartment at Bowen Hills, one of Brisbane's most strategically positioned inner-north addresses - and one of the closest to the city's biggest health precinct.

At 14/78 Brookes St, immediate lifestyle appeal meets clear strategic potential for the healthcare professional who wants their home to work as hard as they do.

Just minutes away, you'll enjoy the cafes, restaurants, bars and riverside lifestyle that have made Newstead and Teneriffe some of Brisbane's most sought-after suburbs - without the million-dollar-plus entry price of those locations, and without a long commute after a long shift.

GREAT NOW, ONLY GETTING BETTER

This is a home for buyers who want more than a convenient apartment.

It is for nurses, doctors, allied health and support staff who want to walk, cycle or take a two-minute bus ride to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital, Herston Health Precinct, or the Queensland Children's Hospital via a quick CBD connection. For shift workers who need fast, reliable access at all hours - not just peak commute times. For investors who understand that a suburb anchored by a permanent, growing health precinct means enduring rental demand from the hospital workforce.

Bowen Hills is entering a new phase. Once viewed as an inner-city edge, it's now being drawn directly into Brisbane's Olympic, entertainment, health and transport core - with Herston's hospitals at the heart of it.

STANDOUT BENEFITS
Light-filled, low-maintenance and designed for flexible inner-city living, the apartment offers the kind of everyday comfort, space and convenience that shift-working owner-occupiers value and healthcare tenants actively seek.

Two big bedrooms: perfect for a couple working opposite shifts, or a home office/quiet room for winding down after nights - acres of space for a king bed in comfort.
Both bedrooms boast walk-in robes and the main has a modern ensuite, so early starts don't mean waking anyone else.
The balcony is a standout, offering a true indoor/outdoor space to decompress after a demanding shift.
Your new apartment comes with a coveted undercover parking spot with extra storage - ideal for scrubs, equipment or gear bags.
Communal pool and barbecue area to properly switch off on days off.
Secure entry, for peace of mind coming home at odd hours.
Ducted air-conditioning, for quality sleep no matter what time zone your roster has you living in.
Highly usable space for a WFH station, study nook, or storage.

WHERE TRANSPORT, HEALTH, ENTERTAINMENT AND OLYMPIC INFRASTRUCTURE MEET

The apartment places you close to the CBD, Fortitude Valley, Newstead, King Street, Gasworks, the Brisbane Showgrounds, and - most importantly for healthcare workers - the Herston Health Precinct and the Royal Brisbane & Women's Hospital, all within easy reach of a shift changeover.

It's a position that delivers much of the same lifestyle energy and convenience as Brisbane's premium riverside suburbs, while offering a genuinely practical commute and compelling value.

The suburb's next chapter is being shaped by permanent infrastructure.

Exhibition Station's transformation into a year-round, high-capacity commuter rail hub, integrated with Cross River Rail, Brisbane Metro and the Inner Northern Busway, is set to make Bowen Hills - and the trip to Herston - one of the most connected short commutes in Brisbane.

Add the nearby Victoria Park Olympic Stadium precinct and the Showgrounds' future Games and post-Games legacy, and the location story becomes difficult to replicate.

OWNER APPEAL, INVESTOR CONFIDENCE

The strength of this apartment is its dual appeal.
It works now as a home base for the healthcare workforce that keeps Herston running. It works longer term as a strategically located asset in a tightly held inner-north suburb with a hospital precinct, transport, entertainment and Olympic infrastructure all converging nearby.

THAT COMBINATION IS RARE!

Apartments that can speak to both owner-occupier healthcare workers and investors targeting hospital-precinct rental demand tend to hold broader market appeal, especially in a suburb with this much visible future potential.

INSPECT TO APPRECIATE THE LIFESTYLE AND THE LEVERAGE

Move in now and cut your commute to minutes, or lease it out to Brisbane's growing healthcare workforce as a strategic investment. Either way, you own a powerfully positioned asset as Brisbane's Olympic decade catapults Bowen Hills and reshapes the inner north.

This is a premium location with real daily utility for anyone working in health, clear future drivers and limited replacement value.
