5 Outlook Crescent, Douglas, Qld 4814

For buyers wanting to secure a quality home in one of Townsville's premier residential suburbs without stretching into the million dollar price range, 5 Outlook Crescent represents an exciting opportunity at $845,000.  The current owners purchased the property through our agency in 2023 and have maintained it beautifully during their ownership. A work transfer subsequently took them south and, after just one set of tenants occupying the home for approximately the past year, that move has now become permanent. With the tenants recently moving out, the decision has been made to offer their much loved Douglas home to its next owner.

Set on a generous 757sqm allotment with neighbours on only one side, this is a home that makes particularly good use of its block. Slight elevation, 2.7m ceilings, full air-conditioning and easy care interiors provide plenty of comfort inside, while the outdoor areas deliver the lifestyle that makes living in North Queensland so enjoyable.

A timber entertaining deck overlooks the large magnesium-salt pool with beautiful travertine surrounds and established native gardens, while an additional 12.6m x 3m concreted entertaining area with motorised retractable awnings provides even more room to relax with family and friends.
Then there is the side access. Double gates open onto an enormous 16.7m x 4.2m concrete parking apron, providing the sort of secure space for a boat, caravan or additional vehicles that can be surprisingly difficult to find, particularly for buyers looking to downsize without giving up their toys.

For young couples, singles or those starting a family, this is an opportunity to buy into Douglas now and build your future in an outstanding location. Equally, downsizers can enjoy a quality, manageable home with the pool, outdoor living and additional parking space they often struggle to find.  Well maintained, vacant and ready to enjoy, this is smart buying in Douglas at a price point that deserves attention.
