What makes Fig Tree Pocket worth more
01
Riverfront homes
Jesmond Road and the river streets hold some of Brisbane's best-known riverfront homes, and a Fig Tree Pocket riverfront house set a metropolitan Brisbane price record of $8.2 million in 2003.

Large blocks
Generous allotments are the norm here. When smaller lots were proposed in 2001, most residents argued to keep blocks near 1,000 square metres, and the suburb still feels that way.

Fig Tree Pocket State School catchment
Most of the suburb is in the catchment for Fig Tree Pocket State School, which opened in 1871, and most is also in the Kenmore State High School catchment.

TeeKay and his team are the only real estate agents I have ever felt were being honest and upfront with me, and I suspect we got an amazing price because buyers feel the same.
