Overview

Redcliffe Qld (Post Code 4020)

Nothing beats a lifestyle that a home on the coast naturally begets. Redcliffe Qld, the peninsula, holds within its bounds eight small suburbs with a total population of 64,366 residents. Redcliffe, one of those eight suburbs – a 30 minute drive (32kms) from Brisbane CBD, an hour from the Sunshine Coast, an hour and a half from the Gold Coast – is a historical seaside village with a population of 10,373 (2016 Census).  As you can imagine, real estate in this part of South East Qld is popular.

Experience the lifestyle

Day trippers from the inner city and surrounds flock happily to Redcliffe, thankful and eager to relax and enjoy the seascape visit experience, no matter how brief. The lucky residents though wake up everyday to the proximity and wonder that is the Moreton Bay – and LIVE it! [The current median rental of $450pw for a house and $400pw for a unit realises a  3.58% return for rental properties]

Consider as investment property location

With a gamut of parks the kids especially will love, beachfronts lined with tall spectacular pine trees against the brilliant blue sky backdrop, more picturesque strolls to take along jetties and marinas boasting locally owned restaurants and boutiques – why NOT Redcliffe?

The forefront alone is worth a visit – clothings, arts & crafts & gem shops with seaside trinkets, vintage (retro) and second-hand stores provide great retail therapy – the interspersed cafe and pubs provide more. Owners and tenants who live in properties in this area love it!
