Major revamping of the Ferny Grove train station and infrastructure work associated with the extension of a dual carriageway along Samford road have made Ferny Grove's accessibility to the city more attractive for working couples.

The Ferny Grove property market features a diverse range of housing styles, ranging from the affordable hardi-plank and high set chamferboard homes to large, modern brick and tile houses.

Its proximity to a variety of facilities makes Ferny Grove just as popular with working couples as with families. Ferny Grove offers buyers a few different housing estates to choose from such as Glenfern and smaller developments including McArthur Park and Gleneagles estates.

Ferny Grove is scattered with park areas perfect for family picnics and outdoor activities. The local skate bowl on Samford Road is also popular with young people. For residents looking for other activities neighbouring suburbs provide access to a public swimming pool and tennis courts in Ferny Hills and a golf course in Keperra.

Brookside Shopping Centre and the Arana Hills Kmart Plaza are located approximately 5 to 10 minutes away and are complemented by a variety of local stores around Ferny Grove.

Ferny Grove State Primary and State High Schools and St Andrews Catholic Primary School are supplemented by Ferny Hills Primary School and Patricks Road primary school in neighbouring Ferny Hills.
