Location Advantages

Yarrabilba is a master-planned community positioned between Brisbane and the Gold Coast in Logan City, designed around connected green spaces, schools, and everyday retail within walking distance for many residents. Highlands Street sits within an established, quiet pocket of the estate, bordered by bushland and within easy reach of the suburb’s core amenities.

The Yarrabilba retail precinct on Yarrabilba Drive — anchored by Coles, McDonald’s, and a range of cafés, restaurants, and takeaway options — is approximately a five-minute walk from the property. The suburb is served by Yarrabilba State School (Prep–Year 6), Yarrabilba State Secondary College, St Clare’s Catholic Primary School, and San Damiano College, with multiple options within the estate. Darlington Parklands, Yarrabilba’s flagship community recreation destination on Darlington Drive, offers water play, a 30-metre flying fox, climbing structures, a sports oval, and BBQ facilities.

Daybreak Park — featuring an echidna-themed playground, kickabout lawn, barbecue, picnic shelter, and outdoor gym — is located at the corner of Highlands Street and Daybreak Street, within the immediate neighbourhood of the property.

Why You’ll Love This Home

The combination of a genuinely generous block, practical single-level layout, and a location where daily essentials are on foot puts 49 Highlands Street in a distinct category for families and buyers looking for real flexibility.

The 766 sqm footprint with side access is the headline. Whether the plan is to build a granny flat for extended family, create an income-producing second dwelling, add a workshop, or simply put in a pool, the space and access exist to make that possible. That kind of optionality on a well-maintained, move-in-ready home is not always easy to find.

Inside, the layout is genuinely functional — a media room and a separate office or teenager retreat give different family members their own space, while the open plan kitchen and family area keep the home connected. Every bedroom is properly equipped: built-ins, air conditioning, fans, new carpet, and quality blinds throughout. The main bedroom’s ensuite and walk-in robe complete a comfortable primary suite.

Outside, the alfresco area and low-maintenance landscaped gardens keep things easy, while the bushland setting adds a sense of calm and privacy that is difficult to replicate in more densely developed pockets. Opticom fibre and 5G coverage mean the connectivity to match the lifestyle is already in place.
