17 Orestes Road is situated in the southern riverside suburb of Yeronga, within the City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Yeronga is bounded by the Brisbane River to the west and north and by Ipswich Road to the south‑east.

Within about 0.5 km you’ll find the heritage‑listed Rhyndarra house, and within 0.8 km are the historic sites Astolat and Como. The nearby John Mills’ residence is also heritage‑listed and lies roughly 0.7 km away.

The Yeronga railway station on the Beenleigh line is about 1.3 km from the address, offering regular services to the Brisbane CBD and beyond. Several bus routes (including routes 107, 127 and 192) also pass through the suburb, providing direct links to the city, the University of Queensland and Indooroopilly.

The main commercial strip on Fairfield Road, opposite the railway station, offers a post office, grocery stores, cafés, medical services and boutique shops. A secondary shopping strip on Hyde Road provides additional cafés, restaurants and personal‑care services.

Parts of Yeronga experienced significant inundation during the 2011 Brisbane floods, especially low‑lying areas near the river. The suburb’s flood‑prone zones are generally close to the Brisbane River, while higher streets such as Kadumba remain less affected.
