Nambour, QLD 4560

Fantastic place to live with everything you could ask for .
We live in a large modern house overlooking Nambour hills and wake up every day to the sound of kookaburra’s and lorikeets. The place is so green and the blocks are large and peaceful. We are at foot of Sunshine Coast hinterland yet also only 20 minutes to gorgeous beaches.
We live in a fantastic street where the people are like the salt of the earth.
Private schools and hospitals only 5 minutes drive. Our kids absolutely love it too . We have friends who live coastal who absolutely love visiting us because of the peace and quite and beautiful outlook of lush rainforest.
Highly recommended for anyone looking for affordable big houses and gorgeous views without the price tags of coastal living

If you want the Sunshine Coast lifestyle without the traffic the heart is where to go. 30 minutes to Maleny and Caloundra, 20 minutes to Maroochydore and 40 minutes to Noosa the ease of travelling anywhere is unparalleled. Enjoy the birds and the rural atmosphere.

Nambour is a great up and coming town. Still one of the cheaper areas of the Sunny Coast, but has so many great cafes and arty shops. Just needs some better kids playgrounds.

As more families move into the area we are seeing the demographic change. A great community in a thriving suburb where large business are investing.

Has everything, lovely town

My family moved to Nambour in 1974. My parents purchased a sports store and my father then went into real estate in the late 70s. I did my schooling at St Josephs/St Johns. Nambour was the commercial/retail hub for the Sunshine Coast , boasting the Morton Sugar Mill.
Sadly the sugar industry reduced in the area with the mill closure which affected the retail in Town.
As a local Real estate agent in Nambour the town has so much to offer, established homes, quaint tree lined streets with large blocks and 20 mins to our wonderful beaches. With rail, 2 hospitals, TAFE and great public and private schools the Town is thriving. With new families moving to Nambour we have seen awesome growth in the area. I love living here!!

I moved to live in Nambour and it was a nightmare since snakes came in the garden of the back door of my house every day it really was a nightmare I live a year and I had to move since I could not live with so much snake to around me. i hate nambour

Large great value private plots; some small acreages with gorgeous views; rural and peaceful yet full amenities and gateway to the hinterland; away from the (increasingly) madding crowds of the coast, yet 15- 20 mins to Maroochydore CBD, beaches, airport (!). *Already* on a train line (albeit abysmal) to Brisbane - upgrading, track duplication and speed uncontroversial and in the offing, as opposed to the endless (seemingly unresolvable) debates about new tracks and lines and routes along the coast. Rumour has it that Nambour is on the cusp of/early stages of regeneration and boom, and you can feel it.

Feb 2021. Let me see. Affordable, plenty of parking, green, great amenities, brilliant showgrounds, growing foody scene, 20minutes to the beach, rainforest walks 10 mins away, strong sense of community and real estate at half the price of gridlocked places like Coolum, Maroochydore or Noosa. (which are getting worse by the month) Currently $500K buys a lot of house and land in Nambour, so if you're moving from Brisbane et al, that's a lot of money left in your kick to retire on. Recent 7 News story predicts 15% price growth in 2021. We shall see.

We moved to nambour mainly because of house prices and the community spirit. People really try to come up with new ideas to make the suburb more vibrant. Our neighbours are great and the area feels safe. Nambour is one of the most down to earth suburbs on the coast- no "keeping up with the joneses" here and it's culturally diverse :)
It's green with hidden waterfall and bushwalks and only 15-20mins to the nearest beach. Easy connection to the motorways so you can be at the north or southern tip of the sunshine coast within 30-45mins. I switched jobs when we moved here so it was great not having to worry about travel. Also easy access to the train station with direct lines to Brisbane. Bus system could be better to connect to the coast but that's an issue in almost any of our suburbs.
House prices are still affordable in nambour compared to the rest of the coast.
