140/85 Thornton Street, Raceview, Qld 4305

School bags land by the door, someone is already asking what's for dinner, and the back door is open before you've put the keys down. This is a home that takes a busy family in its stride. Four bedrooms, three toilets, air conditioning where you need it and ceiling fans everywhere else, all held inside the gated Palm Views Estate where the pool and the playground are mere steps from your front door.

Highlights:
• Four bedrooms upstairs, all with wardrobes, the main with a walk-through robe, ensuite and elevated rooftop outlook
• Full-depth kitchen with peninsula bench, wall oven, dishwasher and a window over the sink
• Fenced private courtyard with lawn, established gardens and a covered patio under its own ceiling fan
• Gated complex with a beach-entry pool, water feature, three barbecue shelters and a children's playground
• More than twenty security cameras across the estate, intercom entry, two split-system air conditioners and six ceiling fans
• Leased at $550 per week to 12 May 2027, increasing to $580 per week from November 2026

Well positioned within the secure Palm Views Estate, life behind the gate means privacy and peace of mind. No through traffic. No wondering who just walked past the front window. Twenty-plus cameras watch over the estate, an intercom means nobody reaches your door unannounced, and the kids can be sent out to the playground without you needing to stand at the fence.

Inside, this two-storey townhouse has a smart layout that absorbs a household without complaint. Something on the cooktop, the dishwasher working through the aftermath of last night, someone stretched out on the lounge while the split-system keeps a February afternoon at bay. Six ceiling fans move the air through the rest of the home, with two air conditioners ensuring year-round comfort, no matter the season.

The spacious kitchen anchors the rear of the house, larger than a townhouse kitchen has any right to be, with crisp white benchtops, timber-toned cabinetry running floor to ceiling around the fridge, a stainless-steel canopy rangehood, wall oven, and dishwasher.

Accommodation is what sets this apart from your typical townhouse. Most tap out at three bedrooms. Here, you get four, all with built-in robes, meaning enough space for everyone to have their own room to spread out. The master enjoys a private ensuite with a walk-through wardrobe for easy routines. Two linen cupboards swallow the towels and spare bedding that normally end up stacked in a corner while the family bathroom and the additional powder room downstairs keep the rush manageable.

Past your gate, the complex hands over a resort-style pool with a beach entry and cascading water feature, three sheltered barbecue areas, and a playground beside the lawn.

For investors, the groundwork is already done. The property is leased at $550 per week through to 12 May 2027, with a scheduled mid-term increase to $580 per week from November 2026. No vacancy to cover, no tenant search to run, just a return that steps up along the way.

The best thing about this pocket of Raceview is how much of it you can reach on foot. Childcare sits directly across the road, close enough that drop-off happens in slippers on a bad morning. Bethany Lutheran Primary School is a short walk further, and the bus stops nearby run to both primary and secondary schools. Inside the Raceview State School and Bremer State High School catchments, Ipswich Grammar School and St Mary's College close by if you are weighing up private options.

The grocer, bakery, takeaway shops, bottle shop, and medical centre are all a stroll rather than a drive. When the car is genuinely needed, the Cunningham Highway is roughly four minutes away, with multiple shopping centres a short drive away.

Spacious, low-maintenance and conveniently located, this townhouse is a ready-made addition to any portfolio, and a future family home for buyers happy to hold until the lease ends. Contact Vicky Sha today.
