Browse property in Purkiss Street

Purkiss Street lies on the western, residential side of Toowong, where the suburb’s rolling hills descend from Mount Coot‑tha toward the Brisbane River. The streetscape is a blend of medium‑density dwellings and the classic detached Queenslander houses that typify the area’s post‑settlement character, framed by the leafy parkland that cushions the Western Freeway corridor.

The street enjoys excellent transport links – it is a short walk to the Toowong train station beneath Toowong Village, while bus routes run along nearby Coronation Drive and a CityCat ferry stops at the Regatta Hotel on the river’s edge. Residents also benefit from the Bicentennial Bike Path, easy access to the Western Freeway, and local amenities such as the Toowong Village shopping centre, historic Regatta Hotel, Toowong Memorial Park and schools including Toowong State School and the Queensland Academy for Science, Mathematics and Technology, all within a kilometre of Purkiss Street.
