Where is stafford qld

This is one of the better starter suburbs around Brisbane. It is reasonably close to the city, and the schools aren't too bad. I've lived in stafford since in 3 different streets. All have had good neighbours, been close to parks for fitness or the kids and all have been excellent for resale.

Bordered by Gordon Park, The Grange, Alderley and Kedron, there has been heaps of top class renovations and the suburb is realy on the way up with out being overpriced. I highly recommend the suburb to all young families and young couples and like minded professionals as it is central to everything you need without living in your neighbours backyard due to the decent block sizes.

I spent some time in Stafford as a young girl. Love visting the local park.. I'm amazed at how much it has changed. But a lot of it is for the better. The people are still friendly, and there is plenty to do in the area. I love the bakery on Webster, it is good to see that Mary's girls are now running it. Wonderful area.

Strongly recommended. The perfect suburb for everyone!!! All facilities are at your door step, and the city is only a few K's. Stafford has an interesting mix of old and new houses, some absolutely amazing renovations and city views and most blocks are at least m2 which is a refreshing change from the tiny blocks some of these new house and land packages offer.

Get in quick - prices continue to rise - so convenient to schools, parks, shops, CBD and airport Surprisingly close to everything from choices of shops, schools, hospitals, the city and transport. This makes this suburb so easy to live in and get around. Neighbours are friendly and breezes always cool warm summer days. The area is full of character houses from the 50's, 60's era with some modern ones popping up and still relatively affordable considering your only about 8km from city.
