This must be the best position on Thursday Island, the commercial
hub of the Torres Strait.

The fully fenced, 3 bedroom house sits in the centre of a part levelled and part sloping sub-dividable block. It is a large parcel of elevated land situated near the shops, hospital and other services. There is plenty of room to park your boats, your car and much more. Watch the ferries, cruise ships, and trawlers come in, close to the action but still in a private and quiet setting.

This property also provides fantastic opportunity for unit development, to
hold onto as a rental while your plans are being drawn up (currently with Qld Health), or move into once the current lease has expired and turn it into your own home.
Raise and move the house forward and build another behind
(with council approval).
So many possibilities for the astute buyer.
