Property experts say buy near infrastructure.

This block gives you the opportunity to secure a rare land holding, your chance to build a brand-new dream home, to start fresh and build new! The reason this is so rare, is Dutton Park and the surrounding suburbs are in the character residential precinct which means 99% of houses are not permitted to be demolished because almost all of the houses were built pre 1946 and are therefore protected.
There are many options to design a beautiful house on this blank canvas or alternately the sellers have approved plans for a gorgeous 3-bedroom plus study, 3-bathroom house with double lock up garage (please email me for details). These have been approved by council and the BA plans have been prepared and lodged. Given that building new is much more cost effective than renovating, you have the potential to build exactly what you want and at a lower cost than keeping the façade and roof line of a 100 year old cottage.

The approved building plans prepared by well-known Brisbane architect Tim Guymer, describe a two-storey house designed in the modern vernacular style comprising a two-storey building on stumps with painted weatherboard cladding and a corrugated metal roof. This innovative design is described in architectural and engineering drawings developed to full building application stage.
The proposed dwelling house has been carefully designed to adapt to climate, ageing occupants, working from home and changing household sizes and needs. Rather than be designed for one specific stage of life, the architect Tim Guymer has cleverly conceived a design that can accommodate changes in the need and circumstances of occupants as they progress through the different stages of their lives.
Some features of the dwelling house that respond the brief for adaptability include
• Step free access from the public footpath throughout the ground level to assist with mobility for parents with young children, the aged or mobility impaired.
• A downstairs bedroom and bathroom for occupants who are no longer able to negotiate stairways to the first floor.
• A study / home office to facilitate working from home.
• A self-contained secondary dwelling above the car port to provide options that allow for integrated use by a large family or separate occupation by a separate individual/s such as an aged person, adult child, care giver or renter.
• Significant cross flow ventilation and a two-storey high void above the lounge area to assist with passive cooling.
Through using these techniques, the house can accommodate a multitude of users including families with children, empty nesters, ageing parents, adult children, care givers or multiple income sources.
Alternately you may choose to design your own home, use the façade already designed and design the internal space to suit your own desires. The choices here are endless…
