Taringa is a lovely green suburb approximately 6kms from the Brisbane CBD, close to bus and rail transport, the University of Queensland St Lucia campus and reputable schools. The convenience is indisputable with cafes, restaurants and outstanding shopping precincts such as Westfield Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, Toowong and St Lucia. A local's perspective: "Close to the city, with shops and cafes nearby but still quiet. Great schools and the university just one suburb over, it's a fantastic place to raise a family. Plenty of parks and a great sense of community."
