Stockland has launched Halcyon Yandina, a new land lease community in the heart of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, with expressions of interest for the first homes now open.
The $200 million-plus community will span a 17-hectare site between Steggalls Road and Brandons Road, transforming the site into a vibrant, resort-style community designed for over 50s.
Work is set to begin later this year and is expected to take around four years to complete. Homes are anticipated to be available for purchase from August 2025, with the first home owners moving in by mid-2026.
Stockland Project Director Andrew Astorquia said this launch marks an exciting new chapter of lifestyle-focused living for the area.
“Halcyon Yandina will provide a connected and active community for those looking to make a rural escape. The community is nestled between a beautiful natural backdrop and is surrounded by Yandina’s rich history and welcoming community,” Mr Astorquia said.
“The launch of Halcyon Yandina follows years of careful planning and collaboration with Sunshine Coast Council and locals to create a vibrant community that complements its surroundings. We’re excited to now open expressions of interest and look forward to creating something truly special for the area.”
As part of the community’s development, works are expected to include pedestrian-friendly pathways linking the community to the township, upgrades to local sewer, water and road infrastructure, environmental rehabilitation and restoration, and a sponsorship of the Yandina Bowls Club to support ongoing community connection.
“We’ve worked closely with Council and the local area to create a community that not only integrates with the township but actively enhances it. We’ve also collaborated with the Yandina Bowls Club to revitalise the facility,” Mr Astorquia said.
The Yandina Bowls Club, located across from Halcyon Yandina, is set to receive a significant upgrade supported by Stockland over the next four years. The investment will help enhance the facility and foster new social connections, with the club expected to become a shared community space for both Halcyon homeowners and existing members.
Bowls Club Secretary Alex Blake, who has been leading the collaboration with Stockland, welcomed the support, saying it will help secure the long-term future of the club while strengthening community ties beyond the Halcyon boundary.
“This sponsorship from Stockland is a real win-win – for us, for them, and for the wider community,” Mr Blake said.
“Thanks to their support, we’ll be able to upgrade our club facilities – from lighting to fans to long-overdue new carpet and furniture – and make it an even more welcoming place for locals to come together.
“We’re incredibly proud to be a volunteer-run club, and with these improvements, we’ll be even better placed to serve the community and welcome a new generation of bowlers through our doors.”
Surrounded by rolling paddocks, towering gum trees and mountain views, Halcyon Yandina is within walking distance of Yandina village and just a short drive to Coolum Beach and Noosa Heads. It is expected to feature a range of resort-style facilities, including a 25-metre lap pool, sauna, steam room, and clubhouse featuring a gold-class style cinema, games room and private dining spaces. A creative hub will provide a library, workshop and arts studio, while extensive outdoor green spaces will foster connection within the community’s natural surroundings.
All homes will achieve a minimum 7-star Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) rating and offer a low-maintenance, lock-up-and-go lifestyle. The land lease model provides financial freedom, with no stamp duty, no deferred management fees and the ability for homeowners to retain 100% of any capital gains.
Expressions of interest are now open and public information sessions will be held from mid-June to early July. To register your interest, visit: https://www.stockland.com.au/halcyon-communities/qld/halcyon-yandina.
