Surburb overview

Griffin is a coastal suburb located north of Brisbane and bordered by Murrumba Downs to the east and Mango Hill to the north. It was named after the Griffin family, a Scottish family who was one of the first people to form settlements in Brisbane and ran properties that cover land from Terrors Creek to the Caboolture River.

Getting in and out

Griffin’s accessibility is frequently mentioned as a plus: there’s Bruce Highway, for getting in and out of Griffin via private car, and other major roads such as Brays and Henry Road. Commuting to the city is also convenient due to its extensive bus and train routes. It is also just a quick drive to North Drive and Murrumba Downs where amenities are more varied.

Amenities

Recreational spaces perfect for family picnics, jogging and sports activities are not lacking in the area. Fishing enthusiasts can collect the day’s freshest catch at land-based fishing spots throughout the suburb. If the weather permits, they can also take advantage of the nearby North Pine River which extends into the vast Moreton Bay.

Property price movements

Prices of homes for sale in Griffin, as well as units, have risen in the past five years. Aside from fully constructed properties, large swathes of green wedge, where new communities could soon rise, are up for bids as well.

Griffin hasn’t shed its rural charm to this day and features a mix of farmland and residential developments. Residents have nothing but good things to say about their neighbourhoods, with Freshwater Estate topping the recommendations.
