1 Friend Street

Held by the same family for decades and offered to the market for the first time in years, 1 Friend Street is a classic, well-built brick-and-tile home on a generous 596m² corner block in one of Everton Park’s quietest pockets. The bones are solid, the layout is easy, and the potential is obvious, whether you’re a first home buyer ready to add your own touch, a family wanting room to grow, or an investor looking for a reliable long-term hold.

Set up off the street, the home is entered through a charming arched brick entry onto a covered front patio, an easy spot for morning coffee overlooking the leafy streetscape. Inside, a bright open-plan living and dining area flows through to a spacious U-shaped kitchen with plenty of bench space and storage, along with a large window looking out over the gardens. Three carpeted bedrooms are all a good size, with ceiling fans and security screens throughout.

The original bathroom includes a separate shower and full-sized bath, making it ready for a modern update when you are. Downstairs, a double lock-up garage offers secure parking plus extra room for storage or a workshop. Outside, the fully fenced backyard features a mature citrus tree, a rotary clothesline and plenty of lawn for kids and pets, while the corner position gives a wide, open feel and great street presence. The location is hard to beat.

Northside Christian College, North West Private Hospital and North West Plaza are all close by, along with Everton Park State School, Everton Park State High School and McDowall State School. Brookside and Park Lane shopping and Dining precinct are minutes away, and the CBD is about a 20-minute drive. Homes like this, with brick construction, a corner block and an established street, don’t come up often in Everton Park. Make sure you inspect. Features at a glance:
