"Select Suburb - wonderful family environment!"
Annandale has 3 entry points into the suburb. The estate was built along the beautiful Ross River, between the Nathan Street Bridge and Ross River Bridge on Stuart Drive/Bowen Road and at the base of Mount Stuart.
A sought after suburb for many reasons, with Lavarack Army Barracks,Townsville Hospital & Medical School & James Cook University all bordering the suburb, with Ross River running the entire length,certainly the perfect situation offering employment and a wonderful family lifestyle.
Select Schools available are: Annandale State Primary, William Ross Secondary, Annandale Christian School Primary/Secondary, Townsville Grammar Junior School, Southern Cross Catholic School.
Parklands, walkways, & bikeways throughout the entire suburb, connecting to shopping centers, schools, the river and the huge Murray Sporting Complex.
Shopping Centers at both ends of the suburb offer: major grocery outlet, convenience store, specialty stores, medical facilities, boutique shops. MYERS Shopping Center is just across the Nathan Street Bridge. just minutes away.
Easy access to the city, cowboys football stadium and the airport.

"Great place to live"
Fantastic family location. Best school in Townsville is the local PUBLIC Annandale Primary School. The Ross River walk way is fantastic for family bike rides look out for the "turtle bridge" just ask a local they are really friendly. Remember the mozzie repellent local pharmacist will advise the best (Ross River virus and Dengue Fever are transmitted by mosquito bite) My family stayed in Annandale for years and had no problems with RRV or DF. Make sure the children and pets dont play with the cane toads..they are toxic. Dont forget to check out the local strand theres a great water park for the littlies.
