Postcode: 4000 | Distance to CBD: 1 km
Welcome to Spring Hill
A blend of old and new, Spring Hill is only a hop, skip and jump from the CBD and residents can use the city and the Valley as their playgrounds.
Spring Hill's most famous landmark is the convict-built Old Windmill (also known as the Tower Mill or Windmill Tower) and among all the modern buildings are old workers' cottages and terrace houses which have been renovated and sell for millions.
The Spring Hill Baths in Torrington Street were first established in 1886 and still operate as a swimming venue today.
Wickham Terrace is famous for its medical specialists and St Andrew's War Memorial Hospital, which is another of Spring Hill's heritage listed buildings.
New designer buildings and fancy eateries like e'cco have crept from the CBD to the edges of Spring Hill making it a trendy place to live, but also family friendly as there are several schools including Brisbane Grammar School, and childcare centres close by.
Residents can also take an easy walk to Roma Street Parkland or carry on a little further and make their way to South Bank on foot.
