Thorneside suburb profile

Thorneside is a bayside suburb in Redland City on the southern shore of Moreton Bay, centred on a foreshore reserve with a jetty and boat ramps that support fishing, boating and coastal walks. It has a quiet, family-friendly character with tree-lined streets of older timber cottages and lowset brick homes alongside newer waterside residences and small unit clusters. A modest local shopping hub and parks meet everyday needs, while Thorneside railway station on the Cleveland line gives a direct commuter link to the city. The suburb suits people who want a relaxed coastal lifestyle with ready access to bay-side recreation.
