Living in Sherwood
The Locals

Living in Sherwood offers a mature, peaceful environment with leafy tree-lined streets and classic Queenslanders set among landscaped gardens, creating a small-town feel. Living in Sherwood also provides access to lush green parklands around Oxley Creek, appealing to families and perfect for leisurely weekend activities. The local action centers on the heritage-listed Arboretum, the heart of the community, encompassing over 16 hectares of multi-use public space with lawns, barbeque facilities, playgrounds, and walking tracks along the river. 

On weekends, the boutiques and cafés along Sherwood Road hum with activity, and come Christmas, Sherwood’s light display becomes a must-see attraction, drawing crowds from all over Brisbane. Sharing the key thoroughfare of Oxley Road with Graceville, Sherwood enjoys nearby amenities, with locals also frequenting Rocklea Markets and the educational facilities in Saint Lucia, just north of the river.
