Gordon Park Real Estate

Gordon Park is located 6km from Brisbane’s CBD. Shaped like a horseshoe, it is bordered by Kedron Brook on the southern and eastern sides.

Although it is Brisbane’s smallest suburb it does not lack when looking for your next home and offers a lifestyle very few suburbs can boast of. Residents refer to it as a “hidden gem” and many families choose Gordon Park for the outdoor activities available such as walking and biking tracks. It also has the largest off-leash area in Brisbane for your dogs to run and enjoy the outdoors.

Gordon Park History

Gordon Park was created when local housing land was divided up in 1890 and named after the exploits of General Sir Charles Gordon in the Sudan. The two main thoroughfares were Gordon and Khartoum Streets. Khartoum Street was the location of local shops and public facilities, and in 1926 a Baptist church was established here. Although it was subdivided in the 19^th century it is known as an interwar suburb. Gordon Park lost its suburb status during the 1980’s and 1990’s (it became a locality) but regained it back in the late 1990’s.

Things to do in Gordon Park

Due to the suburb size, you will find big ticket shopping centres in neighbouring suburbs, but this does not detract from great local businesses offering personalised service to residents and visitors alike.

There is a dog sculpture for you to safely tie your pet so you can shop when out walking.

Book in a time to take friends and family for Sunday brunch at the Two Streets Over Cafe. Relax and enjoy the atmosphere with kerbside dining or sit inside for a more intimate setting.
