Positioned on a generous 787sqm corner block in sought-after Annandale, this spacious four-bedroom home offers an ideal blend of secure investment income now and exciting lifestyle flexibility in the future.
Currently leased to Defence Housing Australia until February 2027, the property provides guaranteed rental income, annual independent rent reviews and the reassurance of DHA’s professional property management and maintenance arrangements. For investors, it represents a low-maintenance holding in one of Townsville’s most established family suburbs.
Importantly, this property also presents an excellent future opportunity for owner-occupiers. At the end of the DHA lease, the home is expected to be repainted and recarpeted at DHA’s expense, subject to the terms of the lease agreement, giving the incoming owner the chance to move into a refreshed family home in a highly convenient Annandale location.
With four large bedrooms, multiple living areas, an inground pool and proximity to leading schools, James Cook University, Townsville University Hospital and Lavarack Barracks, this is a property that can work for you both now and later — as a secure leased investment today, and a refreshed family residence at lease end.
