WHY INVEST IN PLACID HILLS & THE LOCKYER VALLEY

The Lockyer Valley continues to thrive as one of South East Queensland’s most desirable semi-rural regions - offering space, lifestyle, and strong value growth. Positioned less than 30 minutes to Toowoomba and around 1 hour from Brisbane, Placid Hills offers the perfect balance of rural tranquillity with city accessibility.

In recent years, the area has experienced steady population and infrastructure growth, driven by affordability, improved connectivity, and the increasing demand for lifestyle properties close to major employment hubs. Investors are drawn to the region’s proven rental performance and long-term potential, while owner-occupiers appreciate the relaxed pace, sense of community, and scenic countryside.

Placid Hills, in particular, stands out for its elevated acreage settings, quality homes, and close proximity to Gatton’s schools, shops, and services - making it a smart choice for families, retirees, and those seeking more space to live, work, and play. With the Lockyer Valley positioned firmly in the path of growth between Brisbane and Toowoomba, properties like this represent an increasingly rare opportunity to secure affordable acreage living with exceptional upside potential.
