Location and Suburb
Darra is an up and coming suburb. An affordable middle ring suburb of Brisbane with solid growth and rental yields. Developments in nearby areas have increased the desirability and liveability of the suburb. Houses in the established areas of the suburb are tightly held by local investors and owner occupiers.
Wide leafy streets showcase a mix of housing; Queenslanders, post war, and a number of larger new builds. Darra has a large Vietnamese and post war migrant community, with a growing number of young families. A thriving central zone with some well-known restaurants. Adjoining Oxley recently had a major village centre transformation with a mixed use commercial development and Woolworths and has seen unit/townhouse stock snapped up quickly.
The area is very convenient. A high frequency train stop to Brisbane CBD (Springfield Lakes and Ipswich lines join at this point), which is only 20 minutes by train to the CBD on the morning express. Less than 20 minutes to the CBD by car outside of peak. The area will continue to be serviced by new transport projects improving access to Brisbane (Ipswich Motorway Upgrade, Legacy Way tunnel).
The property is in the best part of the suburb, and is one of the biggest MR sites. It’s also only 150m to active frontage in the centre zone. Where else could an Oxley Woolworths style village centre equivalent be located in Darra in the future?
