Brisbane West is a mix of the old and the new. It is rich with history, whilst also thriving with new and modern developments with a vibrant cultural scene, making it an ideal
destination to live and work.
The heart of Brisbane West is Ipswich, which is just 50 minutes from Brisbane City. If you live in Brisbane South or inner west, commuting to work is a breeze, going against peak hour traffic and usually taking only 20 to 30 minutes.
There are new developments in Springfield, Ripley and Redbank Plains which have made owning or building your own home eminently affordable. With unceasing growth at 4.3% per year, property specialists all over Australia are making predictions that the property market is set to rise steadily over the next year, making it a fantastic place to invest.
Brisbane West is home to some of the best kid’s parks in South East Queensland including water parks, modern playgrounds, skate parks, fitness circuits, sports fields, Australian wildlife and much more. It is the host of many community events, such as the Ipswich Festival, Parade of Lights, Jacaranda Festival, V8’s Winter Nationals, and CMC Rocks!
Finally, Brisbane West is home to some of our Australian sporting legends including Ashleigh Barty, Allan Langer, Shane Watson, Craig McDermott, Mark Loane, Greg Bell, Andrew Packer, Ashley Walsh and the Walters Brothers. Allan Langer’s Mum still volunteers at the tuckshop of one of our Brisbane West state schools!
