The scenery is picturesque and charming, and will repiy inspection, even if you have no idea of buying.
The aspect is the best possible, being well sheltered from the westerly winds.
There is no dust to annoy the residents at Kedron Park.
The locality is pre-eminent for its healthiness, and, in short, everything essential to recommend a building site exists here.

What could be more attractive and enjoyable than the view of races, football, cricket, etc., which the residents on this property can command free of charge?
There can be no question as to its merits as an investment.
Lutwyche is one of the most progressive suburbs of Brisbane. Hundreds of residences from the mansion to the villa are being erected on all sides.
Prosperity is stamped on the face of the district, and from its convenience for transit to and from the City, surroundings which are fashionable enough to satisfy the most fastidious, and the salubrious nature of the locality must continue to PROGRESS RAPIDLY until it will be difficult to obtain ANY BUILDING SITES at all, consequently you cannot make a mistake in buying here.
