At a glance
Everton Park textbook inner-north Brisbane ? 10.8km from the CBD, a 52 walk score that actually means something, and a knockdown-rebuild wave that's transforming the post-war housing stock at speed. The big draw is the school line-up: Everton Park High's well-regarded, Northside Christian's got 1,100 students, and Prince of Peace Lutheran rounds out a proper educational precinct. House prices jumped 80% in five years, and with the new library opening in 2024 and Brookside a five-minute drive away, it's got the kind of liveability that justifies the price tag.
