People aged over 50 in Victoria and New South Wales are making up 12% of all enquiries about moving to live in the award-winning Stockland Aura masterplanned community in Queensland's Sunshine Coast.
The $345 million 20ha Stockland Halcyon Coves, which will have 431 homes on completion, is the second land lease community in Aura, following the success of the $162 million Halcyon Nirimba with 244 homes (84% built on June 30 2024). The first release of 35 homes is nearing sell-out and the second release of 25 homes was launched on Wednesday, 25 September.
“The Sunshine Coast, along with the broader South East Queensland region, continues to see strong demand for homes from over-50s, with settlements doubling year-on-year in the last financial year," Stockland Project Director, Andrew Astorquia said.
“While local buyers from the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane continue to show solid interest, we’re also seeing increased enquiry levels from interstate buyers – particularly from New South Wales and Victoria – who are attracted to the Sunshine Coast’s lifestyle for their retirement years.”
Stockland has six established Stockland Halcyon land lease communities, with 1,106 sites, and has 15 in development, with a further 4,512 sites.
