Rosewood Green Estate - Rosewood

Rosewood Green is conveniently positioned just a 10 minute drive from Amberley, 15 from Ipswich, 30 from Greater Springfield and 45 minutes from Brisbane.

State and private primary and secondary schools, an early learning centre and kindergarten make the locale great for families - with university options close by in Ipswich and Springfield.

As you pass by the replica Cobb & Co coach enshrined in the centre of town, next to the historical penny-farthing bicycles, you'll note the local community services conveniently located here. There are doctors, a vet, chemist, banks, butcher, hardware, electrical store, post office, newsagency, Supa IGA, bakery, cafés, pubs, bottle shop, variety and fashion shopping and a new library planned.

If there's one thing that defines the place, Rosewood is all about community. Much like a patchwork quilt, it's not one certain feature that makes it great, but how all the bits work well together.

Generations have passed down local businesses - some since the 1800s. The pubs and people all have a story to tell, from happy days gone by to hotel hauntings.

Conversations start two lengths apart as friends see each other on John Street. People here, young and old, are known for their kind hearts and giving natures - key locals even having been awarded OAMs for service to the community.

You'll be welcomed by local sporting and community clubs, including the golf club next door to Rosewood Green, the bowls club, Pony Club at the local showground and, of course, the churches here.

Surprisingly, Rosewood is the centre for smaller, outlaying communities that add to its attraction - a charm that brings road-trippers to the area and bargain hunters to town, who scour the famous opp shops for period knick-knacks , retro gear and curiosities.

With a vacancy rate of only 1.6%, Rosewood Green proves how attractive it is for young families, couples, and all ages and stages of life. With almost a third of the estate dedicated to open space, parklands, pedestrian walkways and children's playgrounds, and local shopping and lifestyle amenities as well as the planned $7 million library, Rosewood is all about community.
