Nundah

Nundah is located about 9km north-east of the Brisbane CBD and has been increasing in popularity over the last few years. The area has attracted a wide range of residents from retirees, to young families and couples. In recent years, renovation activity has also had a positive effect on property prices, and the whole suburb has received a significant makeover. Given its close proximity to the CBD, airport and major transport routes, Nundah has also seen the growth of medium density units. However, the majority of residential properties in the suburb remain single-unit dwellings. Local amenities add to the suburb’s attractiveness. There are a number of state and private schools in neighbouring suburbs catering for both primary and secondary school children. The closest hospital, the Royal Brisbane, is only 15 minutes away. The nearby Toombul Shopping Centre provides residents with major retail and supermarket outlets, while the refurbished Nundah Village Shopping Centre opened in 2008. A bit further out to the north on Gympie Road is Westfield Chermside. The Sandgate Road-Nundah bypass has dramatically improved the main shopping strip and high street shopping is a popular alternative to visiting shopping centres. Nundah has numerous parks, bike and walkways as well as Scout and Girl Guide associations. Kedron Brook runs through Nundah, Hendra and Wooloowin and has walking and biking paths running alongside. Residents also have access to excellent public transport services with the northern train line running through the area and Albion, Wooloowin, Eagle Junction, Toombul and Nundah train stations all close by. Regular bus routes also make getting into and out of the city easy. Brisbane’s domestic and international airports are easily accessible by car or the Air Train. Source: REIQ

Prior to European settlement, Nundah was inhabited by Aboriginal people from the Turrbul tribe. Nundah is primarily a residential suburb, which straddles Sandgate Road, one of the major arterial roads of Brisbane's north. It was first settled by Europeans in the mid-19th century, although the suburb remained primarily a rural area until it was connected to Brisbane via railway in the 1880s. Originally considered a working-class suburb, the area has become gentrified in recent years, and today features a mix of traditional worker's cottages and modern high-density apartment blocks. It is close to the Centro Shopping Centre. The name "Nundah" means "chain of water holes" in the local Aboriginal dialect. This name is probably a reference to the nearby natural water sources at Kedron Brook and the marshy areas formerly to the east of the suburb.

Like most of Northern Brisbane, the area around Nundah was dominated by the Turrbul tribe. Their traditional coastal trade route passed through Nundah, near the modern-day Hedley Avenue. There are also many significant Aboriginal sites near Nundah, such as Dinah Island, which was reportedly the site of the last traditional Aboriginal burial in the Brisbane area. There were a number of bora rings in the area, indicating that the Nundah area was densely populated by Aboriginal people before European settlers arrived.

The first permanent European settlement in the area was a mission built in 1838 by German Lutheran missionaries, under the guidance of Reverend Carl Wilhelm Schmidt and later Reverend Christoph Eipper with the aim of bringing Christianity to the local Aboriginal people. They first called the area "Zion", and the mission was located in the vicinity of the modern-day street "Walkers Way". It later became "German Station". The explorerDr. Ludwig Leichhardt visited the area in 1843, and spoke very highly of the mission, but despite this the mission met with limited success and was closed at the behest of the colonial government in 1846. This first settlement is nonetheless commemorated with a monument at the corner of Sandgate Road and Wood Street unveiled in 1938 by the then Premier of Queensland William Forgan Smith. The names of these German settlers can be seen in the names of streets in Nundah and surrounding suburbs such as Rode Road and Gerler Road. Source: Wikipedia
