Real Estate Wishart

Fast Mobility

These road corridors include the Gateway Motorway on Wishart’s eastern periphery and the Pacific Motorway on its southern edge. Capalaba Road also cuts through Wishart to provide an easy route to the bay side. Via the Pacific Motorway, a car trip to the Brisbane CBD should take only about 15 minutes.

Availability of regular public transport similarly helps to spur market demand for a residence or house rental in Wishart. The council buses plying this suburb’s main roads, like Capalaba, Ham Road and Wishart Road, can take local residents to the lifestyle delights in Westfield Garden City towards south and in the Brisbane CBD towards north.

Family-friendly Character

Wishart real estate agents often find houses in this suburb as easier to sell particularly to young families because of the various schools within or near the area. These huge plus points for a house sale or rental include the highly ranked Wishart State School and its equally top-ranking neighbour Mansfield State High. Other schools serving the area include St Catherine’s Primary, Brisbane Adventist College, and Citipointe Christian College.

Besides its top-rated local schools, the residential communities of Wishart derive much of their family-friendly character from this suburb’s many pockets of open spaces and greenbelts. In fact,

11 parks account for almost 6 percent of Wishart’s total land area, a feature which indeed bode very well in successfully closing real estate deals in this suburb.

Many of the local parks are located along the periphery of Bulimba Creek cutting through the southern periphery of Wishart. This creek is a tributary of the Brisbane River, and it draws its headwaters primarily from the protected hill reserve of Mount Gravatt northwest of Wishart.

Recreational Activities Abound

This suburb’s parks linear to the creek include Holmead Park on the southern edge of Wishart and the Boorabin Picnic Ground on its northern perimeter. In-between these local points of interest are the Malinya Place Park, the Maisie Dixon Park, and the Wishart Community Park.

This local community park is notably one of the venues of the popular Australia-wide parkrun which it hosts early mornings on Saturdays. The quality of life in Wishart gets a strong boost too from the local parks’ bikeway, playgrounds, basketball courts, and dog off-leash areas. Additionally, the Wishart Nature Reserve on the suburb’s western side provides an extensive walking track.

Regional Shopping Hub

The place to go for shoppers is the Westfield Garden City on the southwestern periphery of Wishart on Logan Road and Kessels Road at Upper Mount Gravatt. Also a leading destination for residents of other Brisbane suburbs, this mall is home to many of the country’s most popular consumer brands such as ALDI, Big W, Coles, David Jones, Kmart, Myer, Target, and Woolworths.

The mall also has an Event Cinemas complex, in addition to a broad mix of retailers including about 105 specialty stores on apparel, footwear and accessories. Aside from these, there are other local retail options, such as those at the Wishart Shopping Village, Wishart Square, Palmdale Shopping Centre, and Civic Fair.

Employment Centre

A house sale or rental in Wishart draw some market attention too as a result of its proximity to the Brisbane Technology Park close to the junction of southeast Queensland’s three major road corridors of Logan Road, Pacific Motorway and Gateway Motorway.

Touted as Queensland’s largest and most prestigious business park, this hub of knowledge-based industries is host to more than 190 companies with a total workforce of 10,000 employees. Developed in a parcel of more than 33 hectares, the Brisbane Technology Park has yet to achieve its full potential and thus can further fuel housing demand in its nearby communities like Wishart.

Like many of Brisbane’s suburbs, Wishart has drawn a diverse mix of foreign-born residents including those from New Zealand, England, South Africa, China, India, and other countries in Asia. Overall, Wishart has safe and peaceful neighbourhoods, and prospective home buyers or renters would have a superb selection from the various types of dwellings in this suburb. Separate houses of medium density would dominate the buying or renting choices in Wishart, with some options available on classy and elegant properties as well.
