  • New lots 2 lots 69 Middle Street, Coopers Plains
  • Apartments / use 40 units Apartments mixedA 40-unit, three-storey apartment block amalgamating five Boundary Rd/Augstein St lots is genuine densification of a detached-housing pocket — net new supply the corridor can absorb, but the seven-year-and-counting build lag is the real story for neighbours.
  • New lots subdivision 28 Orange Grove Rd, Coopers Plains QLD 4108
  • Apartments / use 6 units Townhouses accretiveCode-compliant six-townhouse infill replacing a tired single house on a medium-density-zoned Sunnybank lot — exactly the renewal this zone anticipates, and it drew zero objections.
  • New lots 4 lots 21-31 & 37A & 37B Celtic Street, Coopers Plains
  • New lots subdivision 170 POSTLE ST ACACIA RIDGE QLD 4110
  • Apartments / use 4 units Warehouse / low-impact industry units (4-unit industrial complex) neutralLike-for-like industrial infill in an established IN2 pocket — a tidy four-unit shed replacing an automotive yard, hemmed by warehouses and the rail line, so it barely moves the dial for surrounding owners.
  • Apartments / use 36 units Rooming accommodation mixedA 36-room boarding house replacing a single dwelling on a Medium-density corner is genuine site renewal, but the rooming-accommodation use plus a thin 10-space car park is what will divide the street.
  • Apartments / use 3 units Townhouses accretiveA modest three-townhouse infill on a vacant corner block in an LMR2 zone, already three-quarters built - exactly the gentle-density renewal this street is mapped for, and a net lift on a previously empty lot.

Flood

Does Coopers Plains 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.
