Last Listing description (June 2026)

Opportunities of this scale, position and flexibility are exceptionally rare. Offered together under one high-impact Expressions of Interest campaign, 85 87 Railway Avenue presents a standout chance to secure two adjoining properties in one of Townsville's most connected city-fringe suburbs.Set across a substantial combined landholding of approximately 1,618sqm, this is far more than a standard residential sale. It is a strategic acquisition offering scale, frontage, holding potential, renovation upside, landbank appeal and future development optionality, all within minutes of the CBD.The true strength of this offering is the combination.Two titles. Two existing dwellings. Approximately 40.2m of Railway Avenue frontage. A prominent corner position at 87 Railway Avenue. Approximately 40.1m of Doorey Street frontage. Dual-street exposure. Established residential zoning. And a location that continues to benefit from its proximity to major lifestyle, employment and infrastructure precincts.For investors, builders, renovators, developers and long-term landholders, this is the type of opportunity that is difficult to replace once sold.The existing dwellings provide immediate practical use and renovation potential, while the underlying landholding creates genuine long-term flexibility. Buyers may choose to renovate and hold, improve one or both homes, explore rental and holding-income strategies, landbank for the future, investigate dual occupancy outcomes, or assess a boutique redevelopment concept, subject to all relevant council approvals.Large adjoining sites in established suburbs are becoming increasingly difficult to secure. Even more so in Railway Estate, where buyers are drawn to the convenience, accessibility and long-term fundamentals of an inner-city location.From here, you are moments to the Townsville CBD, Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Palmer Street dining precinct, The Strand, schools, shops, parkland, public transport and major arterial connections. It is a position that works today; and a landholding that could matter even more tomorrow.Whether your focus is cash flow, capital growth, renovation, development, land banking or future positioning, 85 87 Railway Avenue deserves serious attention.Why this opportunity stands out:- Two adjoining properties offered together under one campaign.- Two separate titles with a combined landholding of approximately 1,618sqm.- Approximately 40.2m of Railway Avenue frontage.- 87 Railway Avenue positioned on the corner with approximately 40.1m of Doorey Street frontage.- Dual-street exposure creating excellent access, visibility and flexibility.- Existing dwellings offering renovation, holding and income potential.- Rare scale in an established city-fringe suburb.- Strong street presence and a highly usable land configuration.- Multiple future pathways to explore, subject to council approval.- Appealing to investors, builders, renovators, developers and land bankers.- Moments to the CBD, stadium precinct, Palmer Street, schools, shops and lifestyle amenities.- A genuine buy now, unlock later opportunity.Railway Estate continues to be one of Townsville's most practical and well-positioned inner suburbs. Its appeal is simple: close to the city, close to lifestyle, close to major infrastructure and close to everything that makes inner-city property so tightly held.What makes this offering especially compelling is the ability to secure not just one property, but a combined holding with genuine scale and frontage. That is where the rarity sits. That is where the flexibility begins. And that is why this opportunity should not be overlooked.This is not a standard house campaign. It is a strategic inner-city landholding with multiple possible futures. For buyers seeking land, leverage, flexibility and future upside, this is exactly the type of opportunity worth acting on.Be Quick! These properties are bound to be snapped up fast!
