Algester

The Algester Lifestyle

Algester began life in the 1970s as a family friendly estate. Due to expansion experienced by Brisbane suburbs over the years, it now forms part of the all-important south-west growth corridor. Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, the Gold Coast and the airport can all be easily accessed via the Gateway or Logan Motorways. Bus services are convenient and regular, making Algester popular with those who wish to commute

Overall Southern Suburbs is a sought after place to live. This is a great place to live and over the next few years there should be good capital growth for property owners. Southern Suburbs is a wonderful suburb, great easy access to Brisbane City and surrounded by amazing parklands, excellent schools, charming cafe's, bars and restaurants. No matter where you are in the suburb you are never far from everything you could possibly need. There are enough restaurants for a good way of lifestyle, cafes and bars along both Holland Road and Logan Road to keep us entertained and good bus access into town or South Bank (only ~6 km away). Good access to motorways and public transport including the new train station. Doctors, schools, babysitting are all nearby. Still plenty of units with a mix of heritage listed queenslanders, post-war and modern homes. Up towards Cav Road many of these are on elevated spots that catch great breezes and city or suburban views. With 100 businesses located in the Moorvale shopping area on Beaudesert Road, it’s easy to shop and eat locally. The African community has left its mark here too, with grocery stores, hairdressers and Halal butchers meeting the needs of the new locals. New cafes are popping up on street corners to make sure that this neighbourhood is well fed and caffeinated, without having to jump in the car. It's a great place to raise kids, good neighbours. Overall Southern Suburbs has a friendly community spirit where neighbours catch up at the letterbox or for street barbecues. Everyone is willing to lend a hand if one is needed and strangers will greet you while a smile and a “G'day”. There are plenty of parks to walk the dog or take the kids to play with purpose built bike tracks and picturesque pathways through bushland and parks
