What's coming: the approved projects

The actual developments approved on these streets, with the read on each.
  • Apartments / use 2 units Dual occupancy neutralA modest, character-retaining dual occupancy on a busy Ashgrove arterial — gentle infill that fits a block already stepping up to townhouses and a three-storey apartment building, and unlikely to move surrounding values much either way.
  • New lots 3 lots 9-11 Moola Road, Ashgrove
  • New lots 2 lots 181 Ashgrove Avenue, Ashgrove
  • New lots 2 lots 12 Kadanga Street, Ashgrove QLD 4060
  • Apartments / use Multi dwelling neutralMarcus Reid: this is purely an administrative currency-period extension to 2029 — the packet tells us nothing about what was actually approved on the site, so no directional read on neighbouring property can be made without the parent approval A005173389.
  • Apartments / use 2-storey Food and drink outlet drive through + service station mixedA national drive-through brand landing on an already-commercial 24/7 service-station corner lifts convenience and arterial land value, but the houses immediately behind on Roy and Trout Streets absorb the noise, traffic and light.
  • Apartments / use 3 units Multiple dwelling (low-rise character flats) neutralA sympathetic, rear-confined extension to an existing 1936 character flats building with no density increase: negligible spillover onto neighbouring values, with a mild positive from retaining traditional streetscape character.
  • New lots 2 lots 7 Grand Parade Subdivision, Ashgrove
  • Apartments / use 2-storey Office mixedA modest, already-approved two-storey office gets re-staged with an interim car park on the corner lot. Net effect on neighbours is minor and mixed, not a density event.
  • Apartments / use 6 units Apartments (multi-unit dwelling, walk-up) neutralA minor internal reconfiguration of two top-floor units in an already-built Ashgrove six-pack — effectively invisible from the street and immaterial to surrounding values.

Flood

Does Ashgrove flood? It's a street-by-street question.

A suburb-wide flood figure hides the only answer that matters: whether the specific lot you are looking at sits inside a mapped overlay.

Where we're straight with you
We hold the parcel-level flood overlay here.

Flood overlays for Brisbane are in our map. The per-lot answer (in or out of the overlay) is on the address report, not a suburb average.

What this tells you, and what it doesn't

A high owner-occupier share, paired with a professional resident base, is a demand signal: people buy here to live, not to flip. It says nothing about the specific street or block. The per-address report puts these residents next to the exact lot, its zoning and what is being built nearby.
