  • New lots subdivision 78 MCGINN RD FERNY GROVE QLD 4055
  • Apartments / use 59 m² School administration building neutralA cosmetic refurbishment plus a 59-square-metre back-of-house extension to a school admin block will not move the dial on surrounding home values either way.
  • Apartments / use Multi dwelling neutralMarcus Reid: This is a paperwork extension that keeps a long-dormant Ferny Grove approval alive to 2028 — the directional signal is land-banking, not imminent renewal, and the packet carries none of the built-form detail needed to judge neighbourhood impact.

Flood

Does Ferny Grove 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.

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.
