New Farm

Architecture
Brisbane’s finest collection of heritage homes. The streets south of Brunswick Street feature magnificent Queenslanders from the 1880s-1920s—wide verandahs, ornate fretwork, and tropical gardens. The suburb also boasts Queensland’s most impressive Art Deco apartment collection, with heritage-listed buildings like Casa Del Mar, Ravenswood, and Coronet Court.

Community
New Farm has a village feel rare in inner-city suburbs. Long-term residents, an active LGBTQ+ community, and a cosmopolitan mix of young professionals, families, and downsizers create a diverse, engaged neighbourhood. The Italian heritage from Brisbane’s “Little Italy” days lives on in the food culture.

Position
The peninsula geography means only one way in and out, creating a sense of exclusivity. The river wraps around three sides, providing constant breezes and spectacular outlooks. Ferry commutes to the CBD take 10 minutes and feel nothing like work.

Future Growth
With the 2032 Olympics on the horizon, inner-Brisbane premium suburbs like New Farm are positioned for significant uplift. Limited land supply, heritage protections preventing overdevelopment, and infrastructure investments like the proposed green bridges to Bulimba and Kangaroo Point will only increase desirability.
