Median house price not tracked for this suburb
North Stradbroke Island is a leafy residential suburb of Redland.
Median house price
No open median house price for North Stradbroke Island.
Queensland sells its property sales records through licensed brokers rather than publishing them openly, so there is no official suburb median we can show. ABS median established-house price, Greater Brisbane: $1.1M; Rest of Qld: $815k.

Percentiles rank this suburb against Queensland suburbs that carry the metric — never across states, and never against suburbs where it is missing. Price references are ABS median established-house transfer prices for the Mar 2026 quarter (CC BY 4.0); the suburb figure is a Valuer-General median over a different window, so read the gap as indicative. Income references are the Census 2021 median of the middle suburb in Queensland and nationally, not a household-weighted median.

Shares are the proportion of the suburb's land area. Land where Landsat saw water in at least 1% of clear passes since 1987, excluding permanent water and filtered by DEA's confidence layer. Satellites miss flood peaks, so this is a floor, not a risk estimate; dense high-rise cores can still register tower shadow as water. Designated for development control; a designation, not a prediction of fire behaviour. Includes the potential-impact buffer around bushfire prone vegetation. Mapping vintages differ by region (South East Queensland 2017, elsewhere 2014). Elevation is orthometric height from a 30 m model; no hydrology or drainage is modelled. No open statutory flood layer is published for Queensland yet.
Planning & zoning
Listed heritage places
0
State-listed only (Qld Heritage Register)
Zones are grouped into ten families so states compare; the council's own scheme is the authority for any one lot. Listed-place counts follow each state's own list, so they do not compare across states. Queensland has no statewide zoning map — each council publishes its own. Source: Queensland Heritage Register.
