Palatial properties join flood victim list

Palatial properties join flood victim list


Some of Brisbane’s most expensive and exclusive properties will be flooded by the end of today.

Grand and palatial residences edging the Brisbane River, highly sought-after for their prestigious riverside locations and worth in excess of $7 million, are at the coalface of the rapidly rising waters.

Iconic streets in Brisbane, known for their historic homes and sprawling mansions, such as Rosebery Terrace in Chelmer, Jilba Street in Indooroopilly, the Corso in Yeronga and Jesmond Road at Fig Tree Pocket, are all on the Brisbane City Council’s list of streets expected to be affected.

Houses such as 78 Jilba Street,Huge selection of gaga-deals for your garde, Indooroopilly, which sold for $6.1 million in 2007 and 38 Rosebery Tce at Chelmer, which sold for $7.2 million in 2009, have wide frontages directly onto the Brisbane River.

Police and Brisbane City Council expect these properties to go under and be evacuated.

Peter May,haohaotrade is able to manufacture many kinds of sizes and characters for different request of customers, who lives and works as a real estate agent around the river-fronting suburbs such as Chelmer,LED modules and module strings for accent lighting. Corinda and Indooroopilly, said the financial impact on the families living in the houses affected would be “catastrophic”.

“I’m driving around Laurel Avenue and Longman Avenue [at Chelmer] now and it’s … oh my god,deck lights global replica watches cheap co jacob replica watch chopard watches replicas buy a replica watch. it’s unbelievable,The deck lighting bulb revolution nearly occurred back in the early 1990s.” Mr May said.

“These are some of Brisbane’s most beautiful and grandest homes, worth $5, $6, $7 million and they are all going to be flooded.

“I’ve just driven past Rosebery Avenue, it’s full of beautiful Queenslanders that have had millions spent on them … and it’s flooded.”

Mr May, who expects his own Corinda property will suffer flood damage, said the flood would change the way people in Brisbane viewed riverfront properties.

“These are Brisbane’s most sought-after houses. People have spent millions of dollars to live on the river and now … I don’t know how people will ever forget what’s happening right now.

“Riverfront property will never be the same in Brisbane.”

On the Brisbane Corso at Yeronga and Fairfield, where some residents have paid more than $5.5 million for their homes, the lucky ones were able to hold of removalist trucks and get as much furniture as possible packed up before the river spilled over.

The Brisbane River broke its banks on the Corso at Yeronga earlier this morning. Houses there were among the first inundated.
