Landmark Art Deco building showcasing eight apartments with exceptional returns!

A landmark address ideally positioned in the heart of vibrant South Brisbane, 185 Vulture Street presents a truly incomparable investment and buying opportunity. An iconic Art Deco complex encompassing eight exquisite apartments and multiple common areas, 'Musgrave Court' invites you to secure a rare piece of Brisbane history and enjoy excellent returns.


Set on one title on the border of cultural hubs South Brisbane and West End, the tri-level building is an undeniable icon.
