Set to commence in 2022, Caboolture West is set to become the next new master planned community for the residents of North Brisbane. The Caboolture West Local Plan is an area 3480 ha in size. It is roughly 5km west of Caboolture and Morayfield, bounded by the D'Aguilar Highway to the north, Caboolture River Rd to the south and low hills to the west of Old North Road. The major greenfield project was included in the State Government's South East Queensland Regional Plan 2017 as a major expansion area.
It is predicted to be more than twice the size of North Lakes. At the turn of the century nobody thought North Lakes was a place where people wanted to live, yet two decades later, it is home to 25,000 residents.

It is estimated the catchment will provide almost 27,000 additional urban dwellings, accommodating over 68,000 new residents, 17,000 new jobs and inject close to $9.5 Billion into the area through development. The increased population will bring with it additional competition for commercial property, with plans for a new Town Centre (106 ha), Light Industrial (160ha), 13 neighbourhood hubs, six local centres, 12 schools, TAFE and private hospital.
Each of the 13 neighbourhood hubs, all within a 400m or five-minute walk of homes, would have housing to accommodate up to 70,000 new residents with 1070 hectares dedicated to green corridor networks.
After more than a decade of rumour, false-starts and strategic positioning by major developers behind the scenes, the proposed Caboolture West Expansion Area has landed in the national spotlight in 2019 when AV Jennings submitted a preliminary approval with scope to build 8700+ homes. Unlike most master planned communities where one big player develops everything, you can be part of the next master planned community in SEQ and leverage off massive capital investment from the council and anchor developers.
Key developers including Stockland, AVJennings, Villaworld, Orchard and more have already moved in on the area with limited parcels of residential land left.
