Reviews of North Ward, QLD
"Townsville's Number 1 Choice of Suburbs!"
This is the suburb that most people want to live in. The popular suburb is home to Townsville's iconic “Strand" precinct.
The Strand is Townsville's Top attraction for locals and Tourists which offers the relaxed atmosphere of community lifestyle including popular restaurants and cafes as well as the family-friendly waterpark.
The outlook is picture perfect looking out to the Coral Sea and Magnetic Island which is only 7klm off the coast.
The other attraction to North Ward is the resale value and how investing in the suburb has proven a great investment decision not only for home owners but investors as well.

"A very nice place"
I live in Elliot Springs just south of Townsville but work in an office in North Ward, I just have to say that although I don't live here, I could imagine myself doing so, its refreshing to have lunch overlooking Magnetic Island as the Seabreeze rolls in, the calming waters and relaxed atmosphere of North Ward make it very popular and its not hard to see why its average price is in the $700,000 range. You really do get what you pay for.

"A beautiful area to live"
I don't personally live in North Ward but I have made new friends that do and it is very relaxed with an eclectic style of housing by the water, the elevated parts of the suburb have superb views to Magnetic Island and the coral sea. It is shimmering on a bright sunny day (no shortage of that here) and people take a real pride in their properties and and ever so keen to help if you require it, just ask!
