Plans for a five-storey residential building, featuring twenty-one-bedroom units, have been proposed for 84-86 Wallace Street, Chermside. The development seeks to replace two existing houses on the corner site.
Building Specifications
The proposed structure will reach a height of 19 metres and consist of single-bedroom dwellings, each designed with individual outdoor courtyard spaces ranging from 16.64 to 20.42 square metres.
The plans include a new driveway and 25 car parking spaces, some of which will be reserved for visitors. The development site covers 1,900 square metres.
Site Features and Amenities
A significant portion of the grounds, totalling 157 square metres, or 14% of the entire site, is allocated for landscaped deep planting in both the front and rear setbacks.
The building will occupy 56.28% of the site, exceeding the council’s accepted site coverage of 45%. The ground floor will house a lobby area, and a 188.97 square metre communal rooftop space is planned for residents.
Modifications and Approvals
The two current residential houses on the property will be demolished to make way for the new building. The development application is now under review by the council, and approvals are required before any construction work can commence.
