Profile for Bardon

Local Government Authority Brisbane
Location 4.5km west of Brisbane CBD
Features Elevated position, views of the city, Wests Leagues Club, borders Mt Coot-tha State Forest
Commentary Due to the it's close proximity to the CBD and its leafy tranquility thanks to the bush land reserve area of Mt Coot-tha, the inner north-western suburb of Bardon has enjoyed solid price growth over the past 10 years.

Only 4.5km from the Brisbane CBD, the suburb is well positioned to continue to attract homebuyers who want easy access to Brisbane City and a bushland environment.

Bardon has seen a number of subdivisions in recent years which have also encouraged construction of more modern dwelling types.

The suburb is popular with tenants and consequently a good suburb for investment; about one quarter of its houses are rental properties.

There is a small number of quality units and townhouse developments in the suburb.

Most of the dwellings are renovated old-style Queenslanders and post-war workers cottages.

Popular with families, Bardon has a number of private and state schools including the beautiful grounds of Stuartholme School, a private Catholic school for girls.

Both Ithaca Creek and Rainworth State Schools are located in Bardon, and the neighbouring suburbs of Paddington and Auchenflower also have schools.

There are ample walking tracks in the area and panoramic views of the city towards the climbs of Mt Coot-tha.

Bardon is ideally placed to take advantage of the hustle and bustle of Caxton Street and the high street shopping on Latrobe Tce and Given Tce.
