Land starts from $755,000, with new four-bedroom homes estimated at around $1.5 million, offering residents premium access to ClubQ’s wellness and leisure facilities.

Designed for Family Living

The latest design phase was guided by feedback from The Quarry’s first residents, with a focus on creating spaces that encourage connection and relaxation. The family-friendly pools and creative play zones aim to bring generations together in shared outdoor environments.

Transforming the Former Keperra Quarry

Set across approximately 48.7 hectares, The Quarry will deliver about 400 elevated homesites as the long-running granite quarry phases down operations.

Situated 9.5 kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD, Keperra remains sought-after for its proximity to schools, healthcare, and transport networks. Frasers Property plans to continue the community’s staged hillside development through 2026 and beyond, introducing new landscaped areas, improved pedestrian connections, and enhanced recreational zones to further strengthen neighbourhood interaction and outdoor living opportunities for residents.

The Quarry Bee Project takes flight

The Keperra Quarry Bee Project, managed by urban beekeeping group Bee One Third, has installed eight European beehives at The Quarry. Jack Stone, Director of Bee One Third, explains, “These industrious bees are integral to the local ecosystem and venture up to 5 km from their hives at The Quarry, pollinating gardens, parks, forests, and supporting the blossoming Keperra community.”

The bees are expected to produce between 200-300 kg of honey annually, creating a unique local blend that reflects the area’s biodiversity. This initiative serves multiple purposes:

Supporting local pollination
Producing distinctively local honey
Contributing to ecological health
Enhancing community engagement
Aiding in environmental monitoring

Community engagement and education

The honey produced is being donated to local schools for fundraising and to the nearby Keperra Sanctuary Aged Care facility.

Guess what’s making waves in Keperra? It’s not just another pool party – it’s a $5 million oasis called ClubQ, exclusively for residents of The Quarry.

Scott Ullman, General Manager Queensland Development at Frasers Property Australia, highlighted the unique amenity and design aesthetic that ClubQ brings to the area.

The Quarry will ultimately comprise a mix of 500 home and land sites, Rothelowman-designed terrace homes, and extensive placemaking initiatives.

Urban Transformation: A New Chapter for Keperra Quarry

Did you know that the once-bustling Keperra Quarry is being transformed into a vibrant residential community? Set approximately 9.5km from the CBD, this ambitious $500-million project is changing the landscape and setting a precedent for urban redevelopment.

With the second phase of land release now in progress, this project combines historical significance with a futuristic vision for community living.

Phase Two: A Leap Towards Modern Living

The project’s second phase marks a significant step in the transformation of the 60-year-old gravel quarry.

Scott Ullman, General Manager of Queensland Development at Frasers Property Australia, highlighted the uniqueness of the upcoming homesites. Nestled on the hillside, these sites offer expansive views of the D’Aguilar Range and beyond, presenting a rare opportunity for homeowners to immerse themselves in both the natural beauty and the historical essence of the area.

Community and Amenities at Heart

At the core of the Keperra Quarry project is a commitment to creating a community-centric environment. Upon completion, the development will feature approximately 500 homes surrounded by over 40% dedicated green spaces, including existing bushland and newly curated areas. More than 100,000 new plants and trees are set to be planted, emphasizing the project’s dedication to regeneration and sustainability.

Future residents can look forward to a life where nature meets modern convenience. The Quarry will introduce a range of communal amenities, including the already popular cliffside staircase lookout and the resort-style ClubQ. This hub will include a 25m lap pool, sunset lounges, and a variety of spaces designed for entertainment, work, and relaxation. Further enhancements will include additional pools, a wellness centre, and a meditation room, ensuring a lifestyle of comfort and well-being.

A Legacy of Transformation

The development’s innovative approach extends beyond residential spaces. With 20 lots in the second land release, including 15 ridgeline view homesites, the project is carefully designed to integrate the natural landscape with the built environment. Homes will line tree-filled streets and beautifully landscaped areas, promising a future where the quarry’s industrial past becomes a distant memory.

Scheduled for home construction to commence in mid-2024, the Keperra Quarry transformation is a testament to the power of vision and commitment to community and environmental regeneration. As this project moves into its next phase, it stands as a shining example of how urban redevelopment can harmonize with nature, offering a blueprint for future transformations around the globe.

Former Quarry in Keperra to Become Site of 500 Resort-Style Homes

In an innovative construction project, nearly 500 new homes are being built in a former quarry site in Keperra.

The $500 million development, called The Quarry, will feature 8 stages of resort-style residential housing with the first residents expected to move in early next year.

The development features a 25m lap pool, an interactive kids rock pool area with two additional pools, a barbecue pavilion, a kickaround area, and a wellness gym. In the future, there is a possibility of incorporating a neighbourhood centre and childcare facility.

Situated amidst an iconic hillside, The Quarry offers breathtaking panoramas of the surrounding D’Aguilar Ranges, Glasshouse Mountains, and beyond. The community is expected to house approximately 1,500-1,800 people.

Frasers Property Australia, the project’s developer, commenced sales in June 2023 for 29 lots, which form part of the initial phase of development. The first stage of the project, designed by Rothelowman includes a state-of-the-art recreational centre, valued at $5 million.

Within the Quarry masterplanned community, there will be a range of retail services available in the future. These services will include places where you can grab a coffee, shop for everyday necessities, and access childcare and other useful amenities.

Reports indicate that land lots for Stage 1 of the development come with a price of $580,000 to $850,000. The old quarry near Brisbane, which is less than 10km away, has been made suitable for the housing project.

The land lots within the development, totaling around 237, will allow buyers to select their own builders. Additionally, Frasers Property intends to construct approximately 250 townhomes.

Stage three landlots are already taking shape, designed with tiered levels to optimise views for each resident. Construction is also underway for the stage four landlots, which will be integrated into the hillside.
