What's coming: the approved projects

The actual developments approved on these streets, with the read on each.
  • Apartments / use 88 units Townhouses accretiveA well-located, premium medium-density infill that renews a vacant arterial-front englobo site beside Taigum Square, broadly supportive of surrounding property, with an unresolved downstream stormwater dispute as the main blemish.
  • New lots 12 lots Residential Subdivision - 149 Roghan Road, Taigum
  • Apartments / use 90 units Townhouses (multiple dwelling, low-rise) accretiveA quality 90-townhouse infill that converts a defunct church site next to Taigum Square into well-parked, transit-fronting medium density — net positive for the pocket, with construction disruption and townhouse oversupply the two things to watch.
  • New lots 2 lots 321 Roghan Road, Taigum
  • Apartments / use 49 units Multiple dwelling (patio addition to a single unit) neutralMarcus Reid: a single ~16.6 m2 open patio cover on one unit in an existing 49-lot complex is a private amenity tweak with effectively zero bearing on surrounding property desirability.
  • New lots 24 lots 332 & 334 Muller Road, Taigum, QLD 4018
  • New lots 40 lots 502 Church Road, Taigum
  • New lots 0 lots 159 Roghan Rd, Taigum (also 169 Roghan Rd, Taigum)
  • Apartments / use Townhouses neutralA 13.7 sqm rear patio roof on a single townhouse unit is a private amenity improvement with no measurable effect on surrounding property values.
  • Apartments / use 44 units Multiple dwelling (mix of a 3-storey apartment building, 4 two-storey duplex buildings, plus internal conversion of two existing 2-storey motel buildings) accretiveRenewing a tired 1980s caravan-park-and-motel holiday site into 44 managed permanent rentals is a net lift for the street, with only minor overshadowing tension where the single 3-storey block meets the detached houses to the south.

Flood

Does Taigum 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.
