Corner block properties don’t come to market every day, but a house with a triple street frontage is an even rarer sight. One house that is breaking the mould is Avondale, a Federation Queenslander in the Brisbane suburb of Teneriffe. Set on a wedge-shaped triangle of land, the home is surrounded by roads on all three sides.
In effect, the owner of the property will have access to a unique urban island in the middle of the city. The block may be unusual in shape, but it’s certainly generous in size. Over 1,150 square metres of land are up for grabs, while the house itself offers 351 square metres of floor space.

Avondale was first built in 1901, and is a prime example of early Federation architecture.
Its classic façade has been beautifully preserved, with cream-coloured weatherboarding, large verandahs, and a gabled tin roof. Beautifully preserved interiors with historic features. Credit: Ray White New Farm Inside, the home’s historic features are in an immaculate condition.
Polished hardwood floors, ornate cornicing, and lofty three-metre ceilings give the house a sense of understated grandeur. Hedges hide the sun-drenched pool. Credit: Ray White New Farm With four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an abundance of open-pla.
