SUBURB PROFILE:
Bridgeman Downs is a relatively new outer northern suburb of Brisbane, about 14.5km from the CBD. In recent years it has raised its profile by transforming areas of open forest into up-market contemporary housing, especially on large estates. Surrounded by the suburbs of Aspley, McDowall and Albany Creek, Bridgeman Downs contains a wide variety of land uses including suburban allotments, acreage properties, retirement homes and the Albany Creek Memorial Park. With some of the native vegetation still visible from the main roads, visitors to the suburb often remark on the rural atmosphere that remains from earlier times when the area was used for cattle grazing. The release of residential land in stages adjoining the Becketts Road precinct has caused a marked population increase. The suburb has good access out of Brisbane to the Sunshine Coast via the Bruce Highway. It has good bus transport services to the CBD and is a five-minute drive away from Carseldine railway station. The area is well serviced with the Aspley Hypermarket, Chermside Shopping Complex, and various cinemas, clubs and restaurants. Source: REIQ
