Latest News For Where We Live

Things are really moving here where we live. The developer continues to churn out blocks of land and these seem to sell very quickly. Most new blocks now have sold or Under Contract signs on them, many seem to be being bought by builders for later resale. Some of the bigger companies buy four blocks and then build on those simultaneously.

While blocks are being prepared, new areas of the estate are being cleared and ready for further development. Here the land is being cleared and levelled ready for new blocks of land.


This unit complex has just been completed too. It has both single and double storey units for sale. The original developer went broke and the development has been bought and completed by a new developer. The tower in this photo overlooks the pool one way and provides a great view of the Glasshouse Mountains looking the other way. The double storey units sell for high $300,000.

And at long last the new road at the back of our court has been opened. No fanfare or special occasion, just removed the barricades and the traffic started to use it. This will now provide an easier less complicated access to our place. The map for download on the right has been updated.

This photo shows what has been done at the end of our court. We now have direct footpath access to the new road with this gateway now available for use.


Friends Russell and Irene have headed away from Drouin in Victoria on Saturday on their latest trip in their new caravan. Yesterday when we spoke with them they were in Moree in northern NSW. Rainy weather has seen them continuing to drive north so they are a little bit further on than they had expected. They are due to catch up with friends south of Brisbane on Friday but are a little further along than first anticipated.
