About Kangaroo Point

Kangaroo Point is a dramatic river peninsula offering some of Brisbane's most spectacular skyline views. The iconic Kangaroo Point Cliffs, Story Bridge, and riverside parklands define this tightly-held suburb. With a mix of heritage Queenslanders and modern apartment towers, Kangaroo Point provides a unique inner-city lifestyle that combines natural beauty with urban convenience.

Development Potential

Moderate to high. Limited remaining development land creates scarcity premium. Sites along Main Street and the southern end near Woolloongabba are most attractive to developers. The suburb benefits from Cross River Rail spillover demand. Height limits vary significantly between the cliff-top and the southern plateau.

Key Zoning: Medium Density Residential, High Density Residential, Character Residential

Growth Drivers

  • Scarcity of development sites increasing land values
  • River views commanding premium pricing
  • Cross River Rail connectivity improvements
