Bulimba Suburb Profile 

Bulimba is on every Brisbanite’s radar, and it’s easy to see why, with its charming village, riverside parklands, and enviable homes. Living in Bulimba means enjoying a relaxed lifestyle with all the conveniences—there are not too many reasons to leave and many reasons to stay. Locals enjoy the active community atmosphere during the day, with young families, café goers, and dog walkers taking to the centrally located village on Oxford Street. Boutique stores, health food markets, and eclectic cafés line this popular stretch, and local pubs, bars, and restaurants gently buzz with activity come nightfall. 

Bulimba is known for its relaxed suburban vibe and lush green environment. Much of the weekend activity is centred on Bulimba Memorial Park. Home to the local football club, this heritage-listed gem is a regular destination for picnickers and young families. Living in Bulimba offers a peaceful ambience, with the Brisbane River providing most of the suburb’s border while still being close to trendy Teneriffe and New Farm. The CityCat Ferries and Cross River Ferries provide access to the highly sought-after café, bar, and brewery culture of the north side.
