About New Farm

New Farm is widely regarded as Brisbane's most desirable inner-city suburb. Centred around the iconic New Farm Park, Brisbane Powerhouse, and the tree-lined Brunswick Street cafe strip, New Farm combines leafy Queenslander streets with sophisticated apartment living. The suburb's riverfront position, walkability, and village atmosphere make it the benchmark for premium Brisbane living.

Development Potential

Moderate. Heritage character overlays protect many streets, but medium-density sites on key corridors attract strong developer interest. Brunswick Street and the Merthyr Road corridor offer development potential. Any new development must respect the established character and scale of the suburb.

Key Zoning: Character Residential, Medium Density Residential, Low-Medium Density

Growth Drivers

  • Brisbane's most prestigious inner suburb
  • New Farm Park and lifestyle amenity
  • Brunswick Street retail maturation
  • Powerhouse arts precinct
  • Heritage character driving price floor
