Australian cricketers are trading in and out of Brisbane's blue chip suburb of Windsor.

Opening Test batsman Usman Khawaja has sold his investment property on Bowen Street for $960,000, (above) having spent $2.75 million upgrading to Holland Park last year.

The four bedroom home cost Khawaja $880,000 in 2014 after returning from playing for Lancashire in England.

After buying the home Khawaja immediately leased at $900 a week while he shared a place in Hawthorne with teammate Ben Cutting. It represented a 5.3 percent yield.

McGrath Bulimba - Balmoral agent Glenn Bool sold the home after 62 days. He had a guide of between $950,000 and $1.05 million.

Less than 500 metres away, the big hitting Chris Lynn, who recently starred in the IPL representing the Kolkata Knight Riders, has just settled on a $1.7 million home.

The luxury family home was renovated before Lynn's recent purchase.

It has six bedrooms, five bathrooms, a games room and a heated swimming pool.
