Only minutes from restaurants and shops in Banyo Village and 800m walk to Nudgee Station.
International and domestic air terminals are only 12 minutes drive in normal traffic conditions.
About 5 minutes drive to the renowned Australian Catholic University.
Easy access to the CBD and Fortitude Valley via Airport Link motorway takes about 30 minutes.
Alternatively, avoiding tolls, and taking about 35 minutes via Southern Cross freeway and Kingsford Smith Drive provides you with the delightful scenery of the Brisbane River and the city as you head towards it.
Regular trains from Nudgee Station take about 25 minutes to reach Central Station in the city and a little less to reach Fortitude Valley.
If you enjoy the beach, you are only 7 minutes from Nudgee Beach where you'll find a dog park and an off leash area.
There is also a lovely board walk through the coastal vegetation with viewing platforms to spot the numerous water birds.
However, I recommend the beaches at Shorncliffe and Sandgate which are less than 20 minutes via the motor way. Low tide provides a very large off leash area for your fur child.
Alternatively, regular trains to Sandgate Station get you there in 9 minutes from Nudgee Station.

The second biggest regional shopping mall in Australia is less than 15 minutes drive. Westfield Chermside, known as Chermy by locals has about 450 retail outlets and free parking for 2 hours. My tip is to join Westfield Plus and get 4 hours free.
