Less is More
If cleaning bathrooms get your goat this one-bathroom beauty is for you. While others are squandering their well-earned leisure cleaning their excess bathrooms you can be luxuriating by your pool.

Location, location
With its wide street and extreme low density, Helensvale, is fantastic and about a million times better than a new subdivision. Areas like this are a prized rarity because Council wants higher density (to curb urban sprawl) and developers like higher density (to make more profit), but the average person craves low density for their basic wellbeing. In other words, demand for sparse, slow-paced areas like this which are no longer built can only soar.

Helensvale has shopping malls, train and tram stations and abundant leisure options. For parents, this is a place where kids can roam happily on bikes, relieving you of the usual burden of parental taxiing. And for commuters, Helensvale has its own train and tram stations, and is also handy to the freeway.
- Catchment area for Helensvale High and Helensvale Primary
- Less than 200m to bus stops
- 750m to Helensvale State High (catchment area)
- 1.7km to Helensvale Primary (catchment area)
- 4.1km to Westfield, train, tram
