Less than five kilometres from Brisbane's city heart and only minutes by car, Bulimba is one of Brisbane's popular riverside suburbs and has undergone a transformation since the mid to late 1990s.
Many couples and families have bought in the area and renovated to bring increased value to many properties around Bulimba.
A leafy suburb, Bulimba offers residents the choice of Bulimba Memorial Park, and Vic Lucas Park on the Brisbane River for picnic spots and outdoor activities. Also in close proximity is Hawthorne Park. For water lovers, Colmslie Reserve in Morningside offers boat access to the Brisbane River.
A feature of this inner-city suburb is the Bulimba Army Barracks located along the Hamilton Reach of the Brisbane River.
Services in the area have adapted to accommodate the strong demand for property. Cannon Hill Shopping Plaza offers the closest major retailers and complements local stores in the suburb.
Bulimba is well serviced by rail (the closest are Cannon Hill and Morningside), regular bus services and the CityCat ferry services departing from the end of Oxford Street and Apollo Road, all ensuring residents can access the city and other major centres easily. Residents are also close to the Gateway Motorway and the Southeast Freeway making weekend trips to the Gold and Sunshine Coasts trouble-free.
Schools in and around Bulimba are Bulimba Primary School, Lourdes Hill College, Balmoral High School, and Cannon Hill Anglican College. University students are also within 15 minutes of the Griffith University Campus at Morningside and a short ferry or bus ride from the QUT Gardens Point campus.
Situated along Brisbane River, Bulimba offers buyers properties ranging from prestige riverfront houses to older units and townhouses.
