Suburb Profile Red Hill

 

Local Government Authority Brisbane
Location About 3km from Brisbane CBD
Features Proximity to Brisbane city, St Brigid's Church
Commentary As one of Brisbane's inner western city suburbs, Red Hill has benefited in recent years from investor interest and strong growth in median house prices.

One of the oldest suburbs in Brisbane, Red Hill is only minutes by car to Brisbane's CBD.

St Brigid's Catholic Church is a unique landmark in the area. The design of the red brick church was based on the fortress churches built during the Middle Ages. It is Red Hill's history and hilly terrain that give the suburb its unique character.

Red Hill has attracted renewed interest during the past two decades and much of the character of the suburb has been retained through renovation of workers cottages, Queenslanders and colonials. The renovations of older style homes and the suburb's proximity to the CBD have contributed to the higher median sale price.

The suburb is popular with owner-occupier professionals working in the CBD and has a healthy rental market based on young city workers and some students.
