About Bellmere
Welcome to Bellmere
Bellmere sits on the northern fringe of Caboolture, roughly 45 kilometres north of the Brisbane CBD, in the Moreton Bay region. It's a suburb that has grown up around family living — quiet streets, newer housing estates and easy access to the services of Caboolture without the price tag of suburbs closer to the city.
With a population of 6,588 and a median age of 34, Bellmere skews young, and it's easy to see why: it's the kind of place first-home buyers and growing families choose when they want space, a backyard and a sense of community, while still being within commuting distance of Brisbane.
Lifestyle & dining
Bellmere itself is largely residential, so day-to-day life tends to spill over into neighbouring Caboolture, just down the road, where the bulk of the region's cafes, pubs and restaurants are found. Locally, life revolves around home, the school run and weekend sport, with the pace considerably calmer than in Brisbane's inner suburbs. It suits residents who want a low-key lifestyle with the conveniences of a larger centre close by rather than on the doorstep.
Shopping
For everyday shopping, Bellmere residents typically head into Caboolture, which anchors the wider area with its retail precinct and services. Being surrounded by Estate Bellmere, Caboolture South, Upper Caboolture and Lilywood, the suburb also benefits from smaller local shops dotted through these neighbouring pockets, useful for topping up supplies without a longer drive.
Schools & families
Bellmere State School is the local option and a genuine drawcard for families choosing the suburb, giving younger children a school within the community itself. Older students generally head into Caboolture or surrounding suburbs for secondary schooling, with the broader Caboolture area offering a range of public and private options.
Getting around
Caboolture, immediately adjacent, provides rail access into Brisbane via the Caboolture line, making it a practical option for commuters who don't want to drive the full distance into the city. Locally, most residents rely on cars to get around, with Bellmere's road network connecting easily to Caboolture, Upper Caboolture and the Bruce Highway corridor beyond, which is the main route south toward Brisbane and north toward the Sunshine Coast.
Parks & recreation
As a newer, family-oriented suburb, Bellmere has been designed with local parks and green spaces woven through its residential estates, giving families places to walk, let kids run around and meet neighbours. The surrounding semi-rural pockets of Upper Caboolture and Lilywood add to the sense of openness, with more expansive outdoor recreation and bushland-style surrounds not far away.
The property market
Bellmere's property market has been on a strong run, with house prices climbing 16.8% recently to a median of $860,000. Rents sit at a median of $650 per week, reflecting solid demand from tenants as well as buyers. Current listings are dominated by houses, which make up 80% of the mix, with land (12%) and townhouses (8%) making up the remainder — a spread that points to a suburb still very much built around detached family homes, with some newer land releases still coming to market for those wanting to build.
