Annerley features a mix of traditional pre-war Queenslanders and post-war brick homes, with most of the housing stock dating from the 1920s to 1960s. The suburb has seen some modern infill development with townhouses and small apartment complexes, particularly along main roads like Ipswich Road. Many of the older homes retain original features like VJ walls, hardwood floors, and tin roofs.
Like most of Brisbane, Annerley experiences a subtropical climate with high humidity, intense summer heat, and a distinct wet season from November to March. The combination of moisture and heat accelerates timber decay, promotes mould growth, and puts strain on older electrical systems and roofing materials. Storm season can bring destructive winds and heavy rainfall that test gutters, downpipes, and roof integrity.
Pre-war homes in Annerley frequently require restumping, electrical upgrades from old knob-and-tube wiring, and roof maintenance including rust treatment and gutter replacement. Post-war brick homes typically need air conditioning installation or servicing, concrete cancer repairs, and regular exterior painting due to weather exposure. Termite inspections and treatments are essential given the prevalence of timber construction.
Some parts of Annerley fall within Brisbane flood mapping zones, particularly areas closer to Oxley Creek, which may affect insurance and renovation requirements. The suburb's proximity to major roads means trade vehicle access is generally good, though some of the older streets have limited parking for larger service vehicles.
