2/11 Austral Street St Lucia, QLD 4067

There is a certain kind of townhouse that simply does not get built anymore, and 2/11 Austral Street is exactly that. Set within the tightly held Elms complex, this is classic 1980s brick architecture at its best, with rich masonry, decorative ironwork, deep balconies and a layout that feels generous, practical and quietly impressive from the moment you step inside.

The entry arrives via a private, front facing courtyard, framed by established greenery and that signature brickwork that gives the home its warmth and character. Inside, the living and dining zone is genuinely expansive, anchored by a traditional brick fireplace and a central stairwell that makes the space feel both open and defined. Large glass sliders draw in natural light and connect seamlessly to the outdoor areas, creating an easy flow for everyday living.

Across the three level design, the home offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a rare two car garage, with the scale of under house storage that buyers always chase and rarely find. While the home is presented largely in original condition, the fundamentals are excellent, offering a solid foundation and clear scope for a considered cosmetic refresh over time.

Upstairs, the home opens out to elevated, twin balconies with leafy outlooks across the complex, where palms, open lawn and the pool create a resort style backdrop that is hard to replicate this close to the city. Vaulted ceilings enhance the sense of volume, while the kitchen remains original yet functional with a strong footprint to work with. The bathrooms present the perfect opportunity for an update, letting the next owner elevate the home without needing to reinvent what already works.

All of this sits in one of St Lucia's most connected pockets, moments to the University of Queensland, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, cafés, transport and the riverside lifestyle that makes this suburb so tightly held.
