WHY THIS PROPERTY IS GREAT FOR DEVELOPERS
The Zoning
✅ Zoned General Residential - Urban Neighbourhood Precinct under the MBRC Planning Scheme - one of the more development-permissive residential precincts in the scheme
✅ Minimum site density of 45 dwellings per hectare (up to 75/ha in particular localities - applicability to this address to be confirmed with Council).
✅ Building height permitted from 8.5m to 27m, with site cover of 60% at heights of 8.5m or less (50% above 8.5m) for lots in the 501-1,000m² band this site sits within
✅ Precinct accepted development includes multiple dwelling, dwelling unit, home-based business, residential care facility, retirement facility, rooming accommodation and short-term accommodation – supporting apartment, row/terrace, townhouse and managed community typologies
✅ Worth confirming with a town planner: standalone dual occupancy (not delivered as part of a mixed-use building) is listed as a use not included in this precinct's accepted development table - relevant for anyone planning a straightforward duplex concept
The Opportunity
✅ One of the larger landholdings in central Lawnton, with scope for a renovate-and-hold play or a staged development pathway (STCA)
✅ Neighbouring the 460-hectare Moreton Bay Central PDA, which explicitly names the Lawnton Station precinct in its transit-oriented development strategy
✅ Existing 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offers immediate rental income or a liveable holding position while you plan
✅ Suburb-wide supply is permanently capped by the North Pine and South Pine Rivers – only 138 house sales recorded in the past 12 months, with stock on market at less than 1%
✅ Lawnton Railway Station (est. 1888) is approximately 300m away, placing Brisbane CBD roughly 45 minutes away and positioning the site for future station-precinct uplift
✅ Median days on market of just 14 days – well below the Moreton Bay average of 17 – confirming sustained buyer competition for well-positioned Lawnton land

WHY LAWNTON, WHY NOW?
Lawnton's Cotality median house value reached $1.02 million in April 2026, up 26% year-on-year and a 158% increase on the April 2017 figure of $395,000. The median house sale price across the trailing 12 months to June 2026 sits at $925,000 – either way you look at it, this property sits below the suburb's current benchmarks. The catalysts are structural, not cyclical: the North Pine and South Pine Rivers cap new supply in perpetuity, USC Moreton Bay is scaling toward 10,000 students and 6,000 jobs, the confirmed 2032 Olympic Indoor Sports Centre is under construction from 2026 to 2028, and the suburb's population is forecast to nearly double by 2036, from a 2021 base of 5,905 residents.
Buyers should note the 2026 Federal Budget's tax reforms, including the restriction of negative gearing on established dwellings from 1 July 2027 and changes to the capital gains discount, and seek independent advice on how these affect their intended use of the site.
LOCATION & LIFESTYLE - EVERYTHING AT YOUR DOORSTEP
Few sites in Lawnton offer this level of walkable convenience. 34 Ebert Parade sits close to Lawnton State School, Lawnton Railway Station, Lawnton Tavern and Lawnton Coffee Shop, with Bunnings Lawnton and Petrie Village Shopping Centre nearby. Westfield North Lakes is under 15 minutes away as the PDA's own retail, dining and civic spaces build out around the station precinct.
