8 ks from the Brisbane CBD, 100 metres from a regular bus to town, end of quiet cul de sac

Nice, airy 4 br 2 bathroom house, one of only 15 houses in a quiet cul de sac. Friendly neighbours. Lovely pool and deck to entertain. Middle of the road, middle class home. Shops, great Thai restaurant just 150 metres away. So is a fantastic cafe, gourmet shop, convenience store, and bottle shop (alcohol). Bus at the end of the street. 8 kms from the cbd. Big plasma tv, cable, good computer and internet. Late model car. Nice part of Brisbane. Chapel Hill is a nice, leafy, safe, friendly suburb, not too far from the city. House has a lovely outlook on Australian trees. But you can also be in the city very quickly. 15 minute taxi ride if the bus is not your style.

Lovely parks, good shopping centres. Indooroopilly Shopping Town, one of Queensland's biggest shopping malls, is just two kilometres way. Great bus and train public transport. Brisbane river only 1.5 kms way. Nice mix of young families and older residents. We are on the border of Chapel ill and Indooroopilly.
