Question 1

Is Barmaryee a nice place to live?

Accepted Answer

Barmaryee is a semi-rural pocket on the Capricorn Coast, inland from Yeppoon and within reach of Rockhampton. Streets open onto rural-residential blocks and acreage lots, with newer suburban pockets and patches of native eucalypt and grassed paddocks giving it a country-on-the-coast character. It suits people after room for a shed, caravan or hobby garden while keeping coastal recreation and town services within easy reach, and everyday conveniences, schools and shopping are a short drive along the main coastal road. The suburb is quiet and family-oriented in tone.

About 925 people live here, with a median age of 42 and a typical household income of $2,431 a week. Couple families with children are the largest group, and homes are overwhelmingly owner-occupied (roughly 97%), with only about 3% rented. Local projects include planned upgrades to the Barmaryee sporting precinct, ongoing Pineapple Rail Trail improvements and a roads program entry for Barmaryee Road, all of which shape the suburb’s everyday amenities. Whether it suits you depends on what you’re after in a place to live.

Question 2

Is it expensive to live in Barmaryee?

Accepted Answer

There haven't been enough recent sales or rentals in Barmaryee to publish reliable house or unit prices and rents. Without those figures, it's not possible to describe how expensive it is to live here compared with local incomes recorded at the most recent Census.

Everyone's financial situation is different, so it's important to consider your own circumstances when deciding which suburb is right for you.

Question 3

Is Barmaryee a good place to invest?

Accepted Answer

House values in Barmaryee fell 8.7% over the past 12 months, so on the house side the suburb recorded negative capital growth for the year. If capital growth is the priority for your investment decision, that is the key number to consider; whether that outcome suits your goals and circumstances is for you to judge. Only the house value movement is available here, so this read applies to houses rather than the market as a whole.
