7 Vimy Street, BardonQLD 4065

Some properties demand imagination. This one rewards it. The former Rainworth Gospel Hall sits on 1,748m² with over 31 metres of street frontage in one of Bardon's most tightly held pockets. The building itself, a pre-war structure of genuine architectural presence, has the bones that make the opportunity scarce. Its soaring roofline, internal volume, generous proportions and commanding position give it an unparalleled presence and identity that the character overlay ensures will be preserved. At this scale, five kilometres from the CBD, the site presents a residential opportunity with almost no parallel in the inner west. The land alone is roughly two to three times the size of a standard Bardon lot. What you build on it, and how you use it, is the conversation worth having. The renders shown are indicative concept images only. They are offered to illustrate what the building's form and the site's proportions potentially make possible: a landmark family residence with generous outdoor living, pool and gardens, developed sympathetically around the existing structure. The site's depth and rear aspect support this vision well. For buyers with broader ambitions, the site also comes with existing Brisbane City Council approval for a childcare centre, establishing a clear planning precedent for non-residential use. The town planner who secured that approval has further advised that residential subdivision is a realistic outcome, subject to council approval. At current Bardon land values, a subdivided rear lot alone has the potential to substantially offset the cost of any renovation or new build on the retained parcel. A live-work configuration combining a boutique commercial use with a private residence is another possibility worth exploring. Every path forward starts from the same exceptional foundation: a distinctive building, a site of rare scale, and a location that speaks for itself. Positioned a short walk from Norm Buchan Park, Rosalie Village and Rainworth State School. Less than 5km to the Brisbane CBD
