The suburb of Annerley, Brisbane:
Annerley is on the south side of Brisbane and is only a suburb away from Southbank parklands, the Performing Arts Centre, and the famous 'Gabba' cricket ground. The city centre is less than four kilometres away and easily accessible by bus or train. The home itself is 1.5 km walk to the Eleanor Schonell Bridge across to the University of Queensland. From here one can catch the city 'cat' hydrofoil - one of the best ways to explore the city. There is also close and easy access to the South East Freeway taking you to either the Gold or Sunshine Coasts, and to the western highway going to Ipswich, Toowoomba and the Darling Downs. While Annerley Junction offers a variety of shopping ranging from value grocery outlets and fruit barns to exclusive homeware stores it is also surrounded by excellent shopping centres in the neighbouring suburbs. It is also close to many schools, TAFE's, universities (Griffith, QUT and UQ) as well as to three of our major hospitals.
