Situated in an elevated position in the highly desired suburb of Balmoral, this quaint post war cottage property presents the incoming purchaser with several exciting possibilities: they can move in as-is, make minor cosmetic updates to match their personal style, or embark on major renovations. The latter option is supported by proven end-values that would justify a high-quality renovation project, or alternatively the site lends itself to a knock down rebuild.
The home exudes abundant character charm with features including high ceilings and timber floors. The generous living area opens to a rear veranda which provides elevated north facing views across the river to Hamilton, not to mention enjoys the great breezes year-round. The entire home is bathed in natural light, thanks to the original casement windows that make the most of the ideal Queensland aspect. The kitchen is very functional and caters to the home with ample storage and French doors which open up to a small front veranda - perfect for enjoying an early morning coffee or alfresco breakfast!
Two bedrooms, both of good size include built-in storage. They are serviced by the main bathroom which includes a corner spa bath.
Generous double garage and an extensive storage area sits underneath the house.
The expansive backyard is ideal for children and pets to play freely. Additionally, it holds great potential for the installation of a swimming pool (subject to council approval) or the development of a more established garden.

An unbeatable location, Oxford Street's brilliant selection of boutique's, dining and entertaining options are just metres away whilst numerous bus stops and Apollo Road's Ferry Terminal is located just down the road.
The nearby transformation of the Bulimba Barracks into a vibrant new village precinct is set to significantly enhance the already appealing value and lifestyle of the area. Proposed plans include a mix of residential, retail, and commercial spaces, as well as over 500 meters of public land along the Brisbane riverfront. This development will feature a network of walkways and cycleways, a playground, covered picnic areas, a viewing deck, and expansive grass fields, all adding to the area's charm and utility.
Make no mistake, opportunities like 29 Bolan Street are extremely rare in such a sought after location. Contact us today!
