Qld’s new satellite cities: Where housing is coming in 2025

Formerly known as Caboolture West, Waraba will eventually be home to 70,000 residents and about 30,000 homes — similar in size to Mackay.

It’s one of the few areas where new housing is underway as the state grapples with a supply crisis and soaring land prices, and developers scramble to find infill residential sites to meet demand.

Waraba will be home to 70,000 residents by the time its finished – a new city the size of Mackay.

Construction has just finished on stage one of Waraba’s first neighbourhood, Lilywood Landings, by Lennium Group, will include 228 residential lots, as well as a childcare centre and a service station.

Driving through the display village with its picture perfect homes feels a little like something from The Truman Show, but with a starting price of $280,000 for a 315sqm plot on which you can build a four-bedroom, two-bathroom house, it’s no wonder buyers are flocking here.

To the south of Flagstone in Logan, Flinders Lakes is another new city of 52,000 residents that will soon come alive, with construction of the first homes to start later this year.

Then there’s Stockland’s five-suburb city, Aura, on the southern end of the Sunshine Coast, where more than 50,000 people will eventually live.

Aura will deliver more than 20,000 homes across 2400ha of residential community.
