77 Sir Fred Schonell Drive, St Lucia QLD 4067, Australia
77 Sir Fred Schonell Drive is a standalone house situated in the St Lucia suburb of Brisbane.
St Lucia is about 7 kilometres (roughly 4½ miles) southwest of the Brisbane GPO, so the property is a short 7‑8 km drive from the CBD.
The historic Vida and Jayne Lahey’s House is only about 0.2 km away, and other notable sites such as the Langer House (≈0.9 km) and the St Lucia Presbyterian Church (≈0.8 km) are also nearby.
The property is close to several bus routes that terminate at the University of Queensland Bus Station, the Guyatt Park CityCat ferry terminal (≈0.5 km), and the Eleanor Schonell Bridge, providing bus, pedestrian and bicycle links to the CBD and surrounding suburbs.
Residents can enjoy the St Lucia Golf Links to the southwest, the 5 km St Lucia parkrun held each Saturday morning near the UQ Aquatics Centre, and nearby parks such as Perrin Park (≈0.7 km) for picnics and playgrounds.
The main shopping strip along Hawken Drive, just a short distance away, offers an IGA supermarket, a variety of international restaurants, a medical centre, dentist, and a post office, making daily errands convenient.
St Lucia features a mix of low‑density, family‑occupied homes in its hilly centre and south, with riverfront views and extensive green spaces, while the northern side has medium to high‑density apartments close to the Brisbane River.
