The homes are mostly older low-set and elevated houses, with unit blocks, flats and duplexes. That makes Currajong a practical entry point for first-home buyers and investors wanting a central address without inner-city prices, and a good hunting ground for renovators. Marian Catholic School covers the primary years.
RAAF Base Townsville is under 4 km away, which appeals to air force members, and parks such as Curralea Parkland, Cooper Park and Kevin Schreiber Rotary Park break up the streets. For sellers, clear information on a home's condition and any updates helps buyers compare it with the other older homes nearby.
