238-hectare property in Valley View

Land banking and lifestyle retreat on the doorstep of Lake Wivenhoe for sale

 A circa 238-hectare property with sweeping views over Lake Wivenhoe and preliminary approval for eco-cabin accommodation is being offered for sale in the tightly held Brisbane Valley region.

Chris Holgar, Fergus Russell and Geoff Warriner of JLL’s Agribusiness team have been appointed as exclusive agents for the sale.

“Ideally positioned on the Brisbane Valley Highway, just five kilometres from Coominya and an hour west of Brisbane, ‘Valley View’ offers strong real estate fundamentals and long-term investment appeal,” said Mr Holgar.

“With preliminary approvals already in place for six eco-tourism cabins and an education facility, this property is perfectly placed to tap into the growing demand for sustainable, nature-based getaways.

“Its potential as an eco-tourism destination aligns with the Queensland Government’s strong commitment to developing sustainable tourism experiences, including recent incentives through the Growing Future Tourism fund and the Activate Ecotourism Infrastructure initiative,” said Mr Holgar.

Described by agents as a “blank canvas,” Valley View offers elevated 360-degree vistas, established pastures, multiple dams, and access to mains power. Zoned Rural and fully fenced, the property boasts improved pastures including Rhodes grass, Kangaroo grass, and native species – supporting productive grazing.

“Valley View offers a unique opportunity for buyers to develop now or enjoy as a lifestyle retreat while land banking for the future,” said Mr Russell.

“Its views, location and access to water and power make it a versatile holding with broad appeal. Rarely do properties of this size, quality and proximity to Brisbane come to market.

“It’s a chance to secure a significant piece of the valley – whether for private enjoyment, future development or both,” he said.

Valley View is offered for sale by Expressions of Interest, closing Thursday 8 May 2025 at 4pm (AEST).
