Commentary Nundah is located eight kilometres north-northeast of the Brisbane CBD and has seen an increase in buyer demand as a result of higher prices in the inner city suburbs.

The area has seen a progression of residents from retirees and older residents to young families and couples. Residential development has been slowing and new buyers have been opting for renovating older homes.

Renovation activity has also had a positive effect on property prices as the whole suburb has effectively seen a significant makeover in the last few years.

Given its relative close proximity to Brisbane, the airport and major transport routes, the suburb has also seen the growth of medium density units. However, the majority of residential properties (70 per cent) in the suburb remain single unit dwellings (houses).

Local amenities add to the suburb's attractiveness. There are a number of state and private schools in neighbouring suburbs catering for both primary and secondary school children. The closest hospital, Royal Brisbane Hospital is only 15 minutes away.

Westfield Shoppingtown at nearby Toombul services residents with major retail and supermarket outlets, while the Lutwyche shopping centre is also close by. A bit further out to the north on Gympie Road is Westfield Shoppingtown at Chermside.

The Sandgate Road Nundah bypass has dramatically improved the main shopping strip in Nundah, also known as Nundah Village.

Nundah has numerous parks, bike and walkways as well as Scout and Girl Guide associations. Kedron Brook runs through Nundah, Hendra and Wooloowin and has walking and biking paths running alongside.

Residents also have access to excellent public transport services with the northern train line running through the area and Albion, Wooloowin, Eagle Junction, Toombul and Nundah train stations all close by. Regular bus routes also make getting into and out of the city easy for Nundah residents.

Brisbane's domestic and international airports are easily accessible by car or the skytrain.
