⚡ Beverley's read
Griffin the dairy-farming past of the Pine Rivers district turned suburban present ? open paddocks being replaced by estate homes as the corridor pushes north. Twenty-four kilometres from Brisbane, wedged between the Bruce Highway and the Pine River, it's one of the faster-growing suburbs in a rapidly growing corridor. The Griffin Lakes estate gives it a water feature, and the proximity to both Petrie station and the university means it's attracting a younger demographic. For buyers wanting new-build homes with growth potential, Griffin is firmly on the radar.
