Renovator’s Dream in Brooweena – Motivated Seller Will Meet the Market!

Yes, it needs serious work, however like a great canvas you can uncover the potential of 16 Lahey Street, a historic home brimming with character and ready for a new chapter. The seller is presently residing in the property, but please be aware before you inspect that there will be substantial renovations required if you are going to live in the home. This century-old gem is perfect for renovators, featuring a solid hardwood structure and ample space for expansion on a 1,012sqm partially fenced block. With a motivated seller prepared to meet the market, this property offers an unparalleled opportunity to craft your ideal rural retreat.

Families will appreciate the proximity to the local primary school, serving students from Kindy to Year 6, while a convenient bus route offers access to Maryborough high schools. The location balances the charm of small-town living with accessibility: Biggenden is only a 25 minute drive, Maryborough just 35 minutes, and Hervey Bay’s beautiful beaches are about an hour away—all without the city’s congestion.
