The 20 most expensive Brisbane suburbs have been revealed and the list saw Auchenflower making a big leap from 12th to third place.
New Farm is once again the top-performing suburb in terms of median house price, according to Domain’s latest report. New Farm’s median house price stands at $1,462,500; enough to grab the top spot despite a 13 percent decrease from $1.7 million in 2018.
Sharing the spotlight with New Farm is Auchenflower, which climbed to third spot with $1.275 million median house price from 12th place a year ago and a $1.11 million median house price. That’s an 11.4 percent increase year-on-year and a whopping 57.4 percent five-year increase.
Experts attribute Auchenflower’s meteoric rise to a variety of amenities which makes it very appealing to property buyers, particularly the Wesley hospital, Milton State School and the adjacent Frew Park.
Neighbouring Paddington also made the list, ranking 7th with a median house price of $1,115,500. Other suburbs that made it to the top ten are Bulimba, Chelmer, St Lucia, Fig Tree Pocket, Brookfield, Clayfield, and Balmoral.
