Framed by mountain ranges, sprawling coastlines and pristine waters, the Moreton Bay region combines a stunning natural landscape with vibrant entertainment options and thriving community hubs - attracting residents, investors, and tourists alike!

The region is fast becoming a preferred choice for families and first home buyers to downsizers - offering affordable living as well as award winning medical, commercial, leisure, and residential precincts.

A true lifestyle capital, we’re taking a look at why buyers are choosing Moreton Bay to call home.

Great value for money   

When it comes to affordability, Moreton Bay ticks all the boxes! While the region has been the top performing Queensland real estate market in the past 12 months (CoreLogic and realestate.com.au), there’s greater choice of affordable options, making it an ideal place for families and young professionals to put down roots and secure an enviable lifestyle at attainable prices.  

With Kinma Valley’s first land release coming soon, buyers will be able to secure their slice of the region and make their dream home a reality.


Outdoor adventure & nature at your doorstep 

Choose Moreton Bay for the future

Moreton Bay locals are spoiled with the world class natural playground and local wildlife on offer. Outdoors and adventure lovers can explore to their hearts content - take a drive along the mountain roads that snake through dense forest, stopping off at a gourmet cheese factory along the way or enjoy an off-road or island adventure. Residents can enjoy a range of activities including whale watching and dolphin cruises, 4WD off road adventures, or discover destinations like D'Aguilar National Park, Moreton Island and Bribie Island. 

With views across to the Glasshouse Mountains and a seamless blend of the built and natural environment, Kinma Valley will be a leafy haven that perfectly captures the Moreton Bay outdoor way of living.


Top notch education 

The Moreton Bay region is home to a number of excellent primary and secondary schools; including St Paul’s School, St Eugene College, Narangba Valley State School, The Lakes College, St Patrick’s College and Grace Lutheran College. The University of the Sunshine Coast campus is located in Petrie, and offers world-class study opportunities.

Kinma Valley is purposefully positioned with education front of mind. Families can expect all the education support they need with Carmichael College (Prep to Year 12 by 2025) adjoining the site and a further six schools conveniently located within five kilometres.


Healthy living essentials 

Healthy living

Health is wealth, and Moreton Bay certainly delivers on this front! The region was recently named Greater Brisbane’s healthiest region in a study by Domain, which rated suburbs on ten health indicators including walkability, access to fresh food and proximity to health facilities.

The region is home to a suite of health specialists across six private hospitals and two public hospitals, with an ongoing $395 million Caboolture Hospital upgrade to ensure facilities continue to meet community needs (Metro North Health, 2022). The Queensland Government is also investing a further $107.5 million in three brand new satellite hospitals (Ms Palaszczuk, Queensland Government), bringing convenient access to the best care, closer to home.


Shopping, dining & entertainment 

When it comes to feasting in the Moreton Bay region, there’s a rich offering of fine-dining restaurants, local pubs and clubs, top cafes, and fresh fish 'n' chips spots in stunning locations!

Some of the most iconic and award-winning spots to dine out include:

  • The Belvedere
  • Sandstone Point Hotel
  • The Komo
  • Morgan's Seafood

Shoppers enjoy easy and quick access to the range of local boutiques as well as major shopping destinations including Westfield North Lakes, as well as IKEA and Costco – each one of only two locations in Queensland. Kinma Valley residents will be only four minutes from the local Narangba Valley Shopping Centre. 


The ideal location 

Conveniently located between the Brisbane CBD and the Sunshine Coast, Moreton Bay residents enjoy direct access via the Bruce Highway to both the city and coastal lifestyles, with both less than an hour away. With good rail and road links and plenty of public transport available, it’s accessible and ideally located for the best of both worlds! 

Kinma Valley locals will be less than 6km to the Burpengary Train Station, less than 8km to the Bruce Highway and only 45km to the Brisbane CBD.


A growing region with no signs of slowing

The region is growing, and the future is bright. The 40-year vision for Caboolture West, will see it become an entirely new major regional urban centre with up to 30,000 new dwellings and 70,000 residents, including a town centre, three high schools, nine primary schools, a TAFE facility and a private hospital. Excitingly the Moreton Bay Region Regional Economic Development Strategy 2020-41 forecasts that, by 2041, the region will have a $40 billion economy, built around 16,000 new businesses and 100,000 new jobs.
