There are many scenic and memorable destinations on the Sunshine Coast, and none more so than the historical town of Buderim. Having been listed as one of Queensland’s Top Four ‘Sea-change’ Destinations, Buderim has a unique attraction for tourists and buyers alike.

The Buderim Region

One of the most noticeable differences about Buderim is the sheer strength of community dedication to the 150 year old town. The locals treasure their unique community spirit, and encourage visitors to take some time to discover the history and values of the special place they call home.

World-famous for its Ginger Factory, Buderim has also had a rich farming history in bananas, citrus and coffee. The tree-lined slopes were once a rich timber-getter’s resource, however Buderim has now taken on a far less industrious feel. Many are attracted to the stunning scenery and landscape of the mountain, from the famous Buderim Falls to the multitude of meandering rainforest walks. A true forest getaway, it’s no wonder so many people are making the move to Buderim.
