About Paddington
Paddington is an inner-western jewel of Brisbane, perched on steep ridges and hills just 4.6 kilometres from the CBD. With around 9,000 residents, this heritage-rich suburb is celebrated for its stunning collection of Queenslander homes, many dating from the late 1800s. The area includes the charming neighbourhood of Rosalie, historically a separate suburb until 1975.
Given Terrace and Latrobe Terrace form the commercial heart, lined with boutique shops, art galleries, cafés, and dining establishments that draw visitors from across Brisbane. The hilly streets create a village atmosphere beloved by professionals and creative types. Proximity to Suncorp Stadium adds to the urban energy, while the area's heritage architecture has inspired generations of Australian artists including William Bustard and Jon Molvig.
Paddington falls under postcode 4064 and is governed by Brisbane Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Cooper electorate.
