What a terrific place to live or invest in Townsville, with no lawn to mow, trees to trim, roof to paint, or cleaning the spa & lap pool for that matter, because it's all done by the body corporate, as is the full sized rooftop tennis court, horizon views gymnasium & outdoor BBQ dining area. Resort living in a central CBD location, that's 66/86-124 Ogden Street, Townsville City, can be purchased fully furnished so you can just move straight in, or just rent it furnished for greater returns. The newly renovated award winning Cowboys Rugby Leagues club is only 150m away, with City Lane dining precinct and SunBus public transport hub even closer. Stroll 500m across Victoria Bridge and you are in the heart of the Palmer Street restaurants & bars. 500m in the other direction sees the new North Queensland Stadium. The popular Castle Hill-side Goat Track/s, and the Strand beachfront walkways are also nearby for those wishing to exercise in nature.
This 101m2, 18th level, air-conditioned & nicely furnished 3 bedroom deluxe suite with elevator access is at the very top-end corner of the building, with only one adjoining neighbour, which makes it a discrete & quiet place to reside, holiday or work from with super Fast Fibre-to-the Premises NBN internet.

This solidly built 92 unit apartment complex was built into the upper levels of this multi-story CBD carpark just over 20 years ago and remains structurally sound to this day. Situated at the north western end corner of the complex, this apartment is not vulnerable to the debilitating effects of extreme windy and wet weather, which typically comes from the opposite south eastern coast, affecting those on the pricier river side. This apartment has in recent years consistently acheived higher than average rental returns in excess of $650 - $900/week, with 90% occupancy, when marketed & managed competently. Whilst $higher than those of similar southern capital city properties, outgoing strata costs include body corporate sinking fund & administration fees (approx $2,450 per 1/4 year), and council rates (approx $1,650 per 1/2 year), which are about the average standard for similar such north Queensland top level, sub-penthouse, 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom, full equipped compact Laundry, 2 CARPARK, 2 PATIO + STOREROOM, coastal CBD strata properties offering such rich lifestyle features, at half the price! The active building body corporate is solvent with money in the bank. Body corporate fee structures have been in a downward trend thanks to initiatives of the committee, and the government strata insurance program.
