Strong start for one of Brisbane’s biggest new housing communities
One of Brisbane’s biggest new masterplanned communities has already set a record as sales get off to a strong start with three stage releases underway.
The first homes at one of Brisbane’s largest masterplanned communities are breaking ground as Frasers Property Australia continues to transform The Quarry, 9.5km northwest of the Brisbane CBD.
The Quarry has reported a strong start to the year with release one’s 29 lots now sold out and 85 per cent of the 20 land lots in release two secured, including a new record sale price for vacant land at Keperra.

The third land release, featuring the most elevated blocks so far, launched in April and is already 50 per cent sold.
Brisbane local Sam Campbell and his partner will upsize from their Ashgrove apartment, after securing a 542sq m lot for $950,000 at The Quarry, with plans to build a home styled by an interior designer.
“We are building a five-bedroom home with an L-shaped design which takes advantage of the elevated aspect and views,” he said.
“The master suite is positioned at the northern corner of the property with views right up towards the Sunshine Coast.
“The vibe we’re going for is contemporary, so there will be some curved edges and different textures like a mixture of stone and timber cladding.
“The design elements of The Quarry and the stone featured around the development are consistent with our own home design vision. We are keen to start building right away.”
Frasers Property Australia’s general manager development Queensland, Scott Ullman, said a diverse mix of home buyers had been drawn to the community’s elevated lots with breathtaking vistas and various orientations, as well as the popular addition of private pools.
“At The Quarry, buyers have the rare opportunity to build their forever home from scratch in a truly unique and irreplaceable setting, with the opportunity to tailor their designs in a way that is unlike established homes in the area,” he said.
“They can also select the builder of their choice or connect with one of The Quarry’s recommended partners to make the experience truly unique.”
Stylemaster Homes’ general manager Sharon Piconi said they had seen significant interest in The Quarry from the retail market and would be featuring two display homes along Ridgeline Way.
“Our homes are designed to maximise the block proportions, aspect and spectacular quarry view lines, with facades incorporating premium free-form stone cladding and timber accents,” she said.
“With extensive experience delivering innovative designs, premium inclusions and superior quality constructions, these displays will showcase everything we have to offer, and the endless possibilities for buyers who choose The Quarry.
“Excitement is building amongst our staff, industry partners and clientele alike who are eagerly watching our new designs, specially developed for this project.
“Frasers Property has developed an impressive vision which seamlessly merges liveability with the best of the natural environment, optimum amenities and convenient CBD accessibility.”
The existing Keperra Quarry, which mines granite, has operated for more than 60 years and will progressively curb operations as the development of the residential stages advance.
Prices for available lots start from $580,000.
