On the Southside, you can still get into Greenslopes for close to 500K for a 3 bedroom house. It hasn't moved in 3 years, but being nestled in between and close to coorparoo, stones corner, wooloongabba, then even further out the very popular holland park. It's been overlooked imo, full of character housing and diversity - I think it's time is coming. Neighboring suburbs have all shot up.
Has its own busway station, close to major employers - greenslopes and PA hospital. Freeway on ramp, close to tunnel to Northside.
I just bought a 1920s renovated 5 bedder QLDer for 700k. Bargain imo.
