Grange Suburb Profile
Living in Grange means enjoying leafy green streets, beautiful heritage homes, and a quiet village charm – it’s a place made for families. The safe and relaxed community charm is what attracts those living in Grange, along with an abundance of public outdoor amenities and access to high-quality education. Bounded by lush green parklands and Kedron Brook Creek, Grange is more than generous when it comes to family activities. Locals enjoy over 19 hectares of public green space with playgrounds, picnic areas, dog parks, and a walking and bicycle trail that follows the creek.
A few well-regarded cafés are scattered along Days Road and in nearby backstreets, but locals generally head to neighbouring Wilston for a livelier food and coffee culture. Although Grange may be a quiet pocket of suburban living, it is very close to some of Brisbane’s most popular precincts north of the river. Brisbane City and Fortitude Valley are easily accessible via regular public transport, and key arterial roads and tunnels connect Grange commuters to all areas of Brisbane.
