Stockland launches 450 homes in new Twin Waters community

Stockland has officially launched Stockland Twin Waters, a premium masterplanned community on the Sunshine Coast that will deliver 450 new homesites across private waterfront, waterfront, and dry lots.

The 104‑hectare site has been designed to integrate with the existing Twin Waters community, while dedicating more than 50 per cent to open space, including a 17.4‑hectare lake, shared pedestrian and cycling paths, walking trails, parks, waterside park areas and a dedicated kangaroo reserve.

Stockland Development Director Josh Sondergeld said the project had been designed around its coastal setting in the sought-after area, reflecting its position between the Maroochy River and surrounding natural landscape.

“Stockland Twin Waters has been designed to set a new benchmark for waterside living on the Sunshine Coast, with the masterplan responding to both its natural setting and the way people increasingly want to live,” Mr Sondergeld said.

“The scale of this new community has enabled more than half of the site to be dedicated to open space, with environmental areas and a central lake embedded into the masterplan from the outset, ensuring nature and outdoor living is part of everyday life within the community.”

“The generous homesites range from 500 square metres to 1,200 square metres, with average lot sizes of around 700 square metres, giving buyers the flexibility to build their dream home, whether they are relocating to enjoy the coastal lifestyle, upgrading the family home, or right-sizing for their next chapter.”

In addition to its extensive green space, the Stockland Twin Waters community will feature a range of lifestyle amenities, including proposed waterside recreation such as kayak launch pads and pickleball courts, as well as proposed future retail and convenience offerings as the community grows.

Sunshine Coast Business Council Chair Sandy Zubrinich said new residential developments played an important role in increasing housing supply and housing diversity at a time when the region continued to experience extremely tight housing conditions, with the Sunshine Coast rental vacancy rate sitting at around 0.8 per cent.

“New developments like Stockland Twin Waters are important in helping respond to ongoing housing demand on the Sunshine Coast, particularly as supply continues to struggle to keep pace with population growth,” Ms Zubrinich said.

“Supply of large, level homesites is also limited, and releases like this support housing options at different price points and mobility across the market, with buyers transitioning into larger homes helping to create more attainable opportunities elsewhere in the region.”

Stockland Queensland State Sales Manager Tina Campbell added that interest in Stockland Twin Waters was expected to be strong, with demand for new land on the Sunshine Coast continuing to outpace supply, particularly in established growth corridors.

“New land releases on the Sunshine Coast remain limited relative to demand, especially for projects that bring together location and amenity,” Ms Campbell said.

“Stockland Twin Waters responds to the growing demand for coastal and waterside living that prioritises wellbeing, access to the natural environment and the outdoor lifestyle that the Sunshine Coast is known for.”

Stockland Twin Waters is minutes away from the Maroochydore CBD, Sunshine Coast Airport, the Twin Waters Golf Club and Mudjimba Beach.

The first release of 17 homesites is scheduled for late July, with pricing expected from $1.15 million, reflecting the scale, premium location and waterside nature of the community.
