The couple will add around 34sqm to the home.
The paperwork advises they are adding 34 sqm to the first floor at a cost of around $50,000.
The couple, who are planning their wedding having got engaged in October, grabbed the keys to the two-storey home late last year for $1.07m. It was the second time the four-bedroom home had sold in 2020 having sold at $960,000 just a few months earlier.
The late 1990s-built home, that sits on a 600 sqm holding, has two living spaces, a stacked stone feature wall, a media room and office.
The luxury home has a nice backyard.
Bradley has a beauty clinic business at Jimboomba.
Carney, now a concreter after playing for the Raiders, Sharks and Roosters as well as in the UK Super League, had been a keen Sydney property investor, but his properties have been sold in his move north.
Carney did well when he sold three apartments last year. He secured $1.4m for an apartment bought in 2010 at $880,000. A Waverley unit bought for $607,000 in 2011 fetched $905,500. His Sans Souci investment fetched $600,500 having paid $460,000 off the plan in 2012.
He has also bought a Queensland investment, paying $222,000 at Theodore, west of Bundaberg, for a three-bedroom home, previously traded at $238,000 in 2015. It has become a $350-a-week rental.
