Position One Property and Property Management Wilston

The charming suburb of Wilston is located about 3km north of the Brisbane CBD.  Delightfully, it has an air of the old, with classic-styled buildings renovated to perfection.  These properties sit alongside the fresh, breezy styles and modern architecture of professionally designed houses on Wilston Hill.

Cafes, Transport and Medical Facilities

The Wilston Village Cafés sit along a 200m section of Kedron Brook Road.  This strip is popular with local residents and visitors to the area.  They provide an outdoor dining delight with around 11 or so restaurants to choose from.  These eateries are easily accessed by regular buses and a Railway Station on the Ferny Grove line. It can sometimes be difficult to find parking in busy times. Breathtaking views of Brisbane city from upper streets in Wilston have made this a hub of early urban renewal projects.  This locale has become a lively suburb of choice for many professionals.  This includes past Premier Peter Beattie.  Many medical professionals also enjoy Wilston’s close proximity to the Royal Brisbane Hospital.
