PROPERTY X-RAY147 LYNNE GROVE AVENUE, CORINDA QLD 4075.
The brief.
A pre-1950 Corinda Queenslander on a rare 3,012 sqm character block, schools at the door, with flood and heritage layers to weigh.
Family-scale character home with secondary and primary schools both inside 0.8 km.
- Corinda State High School is 0.1 km away; primary is 0.8 km.
- Building footprint near 18% of the block sits below council's 50% cap, though the character zone governs changes.
- Pool on record supports ready outdoor living on the 1,566 sqm of outdoor space.
- Within a medium-risk flood overlay; get an insurance quote first.
- Character and local heritage overlays make demolition and external changes assessable.
Scarce character land near two schools, with nearby subdivision activity flagged.
- 3,012 sqm character-zoned block is uncommon in Corinda.
- Schools within 0.8 km support steady family tenant demand.
- Standard freehold with no easement keeps the position clean.
- 3 subdivision applications within 1 km, flagged in the risk list.
- Character zone makes any subdivision assessable, not guaranteed.

The property.
What you're actually buying. Lot size, building footprint, structures detected from aerial + ground-view imagery, and how this block compares to its suburb.
- Structure may pre-date current approval rules. Older sheds and outbuildings were often built without DAs when local rules were looser; their compliance is usually grandfathered but worth confirming.
The street sits at the edge of a quiet residential cul-de-sac with a curved road layout. Neighbouring homes are a mix of older character houses and more contemporary builds, mostly well maintained. The street has a generous verge with mature canopy trees, including a striking flowering poinciana directly in front of the subject property. On-street parking is present but not heavily congested.
Dimensions
This property is already 3 registered lots. 2 carry no building and meet the minimum lot size, so they can likely be separated and sold without a fresh subdivision, subject to access and a council assessment.
The lot holding the existing dwelling cannot be split off where a character overlay prevents demolition.
Subject to services, slope and overlay assessment.
What each lot carries
Indicative · confirm with CouncilSeparate titles under one roof. Each card shows every constraint that lot carries and how much of the lot it touches. What these mean for a build is set out once below.
What these mean
Pointers, not advice- Flood mappingAll lots Every flood-mapped lot can be harder or dearer to insure, and a future build may need to sit above and back from the flood line. Some of it sits at high severity. Worth pricing the insurance in before you commit.
- Protected vegetationAll lots Each lot carries a City Plan significant-vegetation overlay, so the dwelling and driveway must work around a Tree Protection Zone. Building or clearing near one usually needs a Council assessment, so bring a town planner in before you commit.
These are pointers, not advice. Overlays and what you can actually do shift lot by lot, and the lines on this map are indicative. Confirm everything with a town planner and Brisbane City Council before you rely on it. The final call is theirs, not ours.
Boundary and dimensions are derived from the Queensland cadastre. Approximate measurements only. For survey-grade dimensions, refer to the registered plan from QLD Titles.
The same spot across the decades, from the Queensland Government aerial archive. Drag through the years and watch what changes.
- Dams and water lines
- A dam or creek line visible in an early frame but absent today can mean filled ground. Cross-check the flood section and ask about it at inspection.
- Structures near the boundary
- A permanent structure (anything with footings and a roof) that appears between frames close to a boundary line may have needed a siting relaxation from council. Check the development applications section for a matching approval.
- Vegetation change
- Thinning or cleared vegetation across the years is useful context for the bushfire reading and for how established the street has become.

A sewer service lateral runs across this lot. Worth checking the alignment before designing extensions or pools.
| Fact | Value | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Sewer main at street | 33 m, gravity, VC, 100mm | PE and PVC are modern; closer is cheaper to connect |
| Sewer manhole | 35 m, 1.5 m deep | May sit on a public easement |
| Service lateral on lot | Yes | Building over it can be costly to repair |
| Sewer treatment plant | None within 500 m | Plants can carry intermittent odour |
| Water main | 18 m, 100mm, AC | Supports standard household demand |
| Nearest hydrant | 31 m | About 90 m is the typical fire standard |
| Recycled water | Not available here | Dual-piped suburbs irrigate cheaper |
| In planned extension | No | For fringe estates not yet connected |
Shallow. Fixtures sit higher, and a low basement may need a pump.
- Service lateral
- A small private pipe that connects your house to the public sewer in the street. It usually runs through your front yard. If a future build sits on top of it, repairs may require digging through a slab or driveway.
- Sewer main material
- Older suburbs often have vitreous clay or cast iron mains laid in the 1960s and earlier. Newer estates use polyethylene or PVC. Material matters because failure rates rise with age, and a future main replacement can disrupt the street.
- Invert level and depth
- A deeper sewer can serve a deeper basement; a shallow one limits how low your fixtures can sit without a pump.
- Sewer pump station
- A small pumping facility that lifts sewage uphill where gravity will not do the work. Modern ones are mostly silent and odour-controlled, but worth checking on a warm summer day.
- Sewer treatment plant
- Where sewage is processed before release. Modern plants run quietly with significant odour control, but on a hot day the boundary smell can carry several hundred metres.
- Hydrant location
- Hydrants supply water for fire-fighting. A hydrant within 90 m of a property is a typical regulatory standard.
- Service extension area
- Some properties on the urban fringe are scheduled for future sewer connection. Until then a septic system is required, which adds ongoing running and inspection costs.
No high-voltage transmission easement is registered over this lot. The nearest line and substation distances below are context only.
The line is a few hundred metres away and reads as a distant tower rather than a feature over the lot.
| Fact | Value | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| HV easement on lot | None registered on this lot | A no-build corridor caps where you can build |
| Nearest HV line | 968 m, 110 kV | Further away means less visual and resale concern |
| Nearest substation | 1045 m | Some buyers and lenders weigh proximity |
| Corridor voltage | 110 kV | Higher voltage usually means a wider easement |
- Transmission easement (no-build corridor)
- A high-voltage transmission easement is a strip of your land registered to the network operator so the lines can be accessed and kept clear. Inside it you generally cannot build, extend, or even put a pool or shed, and the restriction runs with the title to every future owner. On a small lot that strip can swallow a large share of the buildable area, which caps both renovation and development upside.
- Why distance to the lines matters
- Proximity to high-voltage lines and substations is not a title burden, but it does shape the buyer pool. Perception and EMF concerns make some buyers and some lenders wary, fairly or not, which can thin the field at resale. The lines are also visible from the yard. We report the exact distance so you can weigh it with your own eyes: further away means less concern.
- Effect on subdivision and development
- A transmission corridor running through or beside a lot can constrain a future subdivision, because the no-build strip and the access setbacks reduce the developable footprint. If your plan relies on splitting the block or adding a second dwelling, check the corridor alignment before you commit.
- Coverage and confirmation
- Easement corridors are mapped per council and some overlays are not yet published, so a clear result here is only as good as the council layer behind it. Where the overlay is missing we say so rather than imply the lot is clear. Either way, the title search is the definitive record of what is registered on the land.
Feng shui is a traditional belief system, included for cultural interest. It is not factual, scientific, financial, or valuation advice, and is not a substitute for a personalised consultation with a qualified practitioner.
Reads as a steady, neutral feng shui profile, with a solar-aspect consideration and a street-number consideration that are easily softened with the cures noted below.
A meaningful share of SEQ buyers weighs feng shui, so these factors influence demand and resale regardless of personal belief. Treat this as a saleability signal, not advice.

Factors weighed
Tap a wedge or a sign for its detail.
- Solar & Bright Aspectchallenged
The rear aspect faces south, so it receives less direct sun. This is considered less favourable in feng shui by some buyers and practitioners. A brighter, well-lit interior keeps the space feeling lively (yang). It is commonly addressed with brighter lighting in dark corners, mirrors to bounce light, open curtains to maximise daylight, warm bright colours, healthy plants and a well-lit entrance (the "mouth of qi"). For a personalised assessment, consult a qualified practitioner.
Remedy: brighter lighting in dark corners, mirrors to bounce light, open curtains to maximise daylight, warm bright colours, healthy plants and a well-lit entrance (the "mouth of qi")
- Lot shapeneutral
This is a regular, close-to-rectangular block with no shape concerns; the flow of chi reads as even and workable.
Remedy: completing the square with a fence or wall, anchoring a missing corner with a lamp, statue, fountain, large stone or flagpole, landscaping to soften sharp angles, and interior mirrors to imply the missing space
- Road alignment (sha chi)neutral
No road points head-on at the block, so there is no "poison arrow" (sha chi) alignment to note.
Remedy: a hedge, wall, fence or screen as a first line, then dense planting or a curved path; some practitioners add an outdoor convex bagua mirror, which must never be aimed at a neighbour’s home
- Street number (Chinese numerology)worth-noting
Number 147: contains 4 (a homophone some associate with misfortune). This is considered less favourable in feng shui by some buyers and practitioners. In Chinese numerology this is a minor resale-liquidity consideration in submarkets with many Chinese buyers, not a property defect (in Flying Stars 4 is in fact an auspicious star). It is commonly addressed with cosmetic folk cures such as a red circle around the digit or lucky characters on the letterbox; a council renumbering is a rare exception. For a personalised assessment, consult a qualified practitioner.
Mitigation: cosmetic folk cures such as a red circle around the digit or lucky characters on the letterbox; a council renumbering is a rare exception
- Surrounding featuresneutral
No notably auspicious or inauspicious features close by.
Remedy: blocking the line of sight with a wall, hedge, fence or trees, a bright and well-kept (yang) interior, and for yin sources such as a cemetery or hospital a concave bagua mirror, which absorbs rather than reflects
