But some burbs leapt even higher.
Chermside, here on the north side, made a stellar leap achieving 21.1 per cent growth for houses taking median prices to a chunky $1.202 million.
Neighbouring Chermside West also saw strong demand, achieving 17.5 per cent growth, taking median house prices to $1.218 million, reports Australian Property Investor.
It’s not surprising these north side burbs were in demand.
They sit in the perennially popular middle ring, offering a good mix of access to schools, shops and recreation facilities with handy transport links to the city.
Buyers can still enjoy the leafy green of parks and creek side bike tracks, while being walking distance to thriving café sets and shopping precincts.
At one end of the spectrum is the major Westfield mini city in Chermside, while smaller neighbourhood vibes are in abundance in Rode Centre.
The suburbs also offer a variety of price points. Affordability hunters should look for older post homes offering entry level buying. New builds and renovated houses will command a little more, while units can offer a city lifestyle around the Westfield precinct.
