Capricorn Coast luxurious properties: Plans of properties to be built

Exponential growth has been recorded at the Capricorn Coast in the wake of Covid-19. In 2021, 396 new dwellings were approved. Check out plans for some of the higher-end homes planned for the coastal hub.

The Capricorn Coast is already home to a number of luxurious properties and mansions with more set to be built soon.

Growth has been exponential at the coast, with more and more people moving to the region in the wake of Covid-19, to escape lockdowns and as working from home is manageable and people don’t need to be in the cities for work.

According to Livingstone Shire Council planning and building approval data for new properties, there have been 181 single storey dwellings and 13 two-storey dwellings approved for construction this year to date September 26.

Throughout the 2021 calendar year, 377 single storey dwellings and 19 two-storey dwellings were approved.

There has also been an increase in property transfers, including vacant land and residential properties.
