Margate, Redcliffe and Scarborough

The Margate, Redcliffe and Scarborough Lifestyle

Set on a peninsula in the picturesque Moreton Bay, the City of Redcliffe is bound by 22 km of golden sandy beaches and rocky red headlands with stunning ocean and island views. While offering city facilities, the laid-back coastal lifestyle of Redcliffe is less than 45 minutes drive north of the Brisbane CBD and only 25 minutes from the Brisbane International and Domestic airports

The location of North Eastern Suburbs allows for the perfect trilogy with excellent transport links, proximity to the ocean and beautiful large housing estates. Most parts of the area are within walking distance of Sandgate and Bay, but no Sandgate or Shorncliff prices. The area is safe and typically suburban, with some great little hidden cafes, shopping malls and a large selection of restaurants and bars.

But now that commuting to work is easier than ever, professionals and families enjoy marine life year round, bringing with them a passion for outdoor living and a cosmopolitan coolness. The local demographic is a mixture of old and young, middle, lower middle and upper working class, with a growing number of ascendants and prosperous young families buying the suburbs with their charming post-war homes. , cottages and residents of Queensland. This area is an excellent base and suburb where everyone can feel comfortable and “at home”. Groceries and other purchases can be done in Ascot, Clayfield (3-5 minutes), Chermside (5-8 minutes), DFO (3-6 minutes), Toombule (2-4 minutes) or Nanda Village (1-3 minutes). Highway access is super fast and offers a real advantage — a day trip or weekend up or down the coast, or north to Shorncliffe, Sandgate, Redcliffe or Bribie Island, or east to Bulimba, Manley, Wellington Point or Cleveland becomes fast and just. Food is a key feature of Radcliffe's lifestyle. It has a strong cafe culture and serves the best coffee outside of Brisbane. Local bistros, ice cream, fish and chips are also popular, but by far the biggest treat is the fresh seafood from the docks in Scarborough
