The acreage that's already grown up.
Most acreage blocks ask you to be patient. Plant the trees. Wait for shade. Dig a dam. Hope for a view. Then come back in twenty years. 16 Carmichael Drive isn't that block.
Set on 1.28 hectares in the established Emerald Estate at Adare - a natural extension of the well-regarded Grevillia Estate - this is the lot acreage buyers chase and rarely find: mature trees already standing, a working dam already in place, and an outlook across the Lockyer Valley you simply can't manufacture. With no covenants from developer, gives you a much more independence to decide what to do.
What sets 16 Carmichael Drive apart
A pre-existing dam - water security on day one, ready for stock, irrigation, fire protection, or simply as a feature your kids will grow up around
Mature trees throughout - keep them as established shade and privacy, or shape a clearing to suit your build. Either way, you start decades ahead
Sweeping rural views - the kind of Lockyer Valley outlook that anchors a home and adds value the moment your front door faces it
Generous Emerald Estate proportions - Emerald Estate offers noticeably larger acreage lots than neighbouring estates in the corridor, giving you multiple options
Already connected, already build-ready
Power and NBN to the boundary
Tank water and on-site sewerage (standard for the estate)
Sealed road frontage, fully titled, ready to build
The Adare lifestyle
6 minutes to Gatton - schools, UQ Gatton campus, shopping, medical, sport
~40 minutes to Toowoomba
Just over an hour to Brisbane CBD via the Warrego
One of South East Queensland's fastest-growing rural communities
Why this one moves quickly
Bare acreage blocks are everywhere in this corridor. Mature blocks - with a dam, with big trees, with a view, inside a tightly-held estate - almost never come up. When they do, they sell to the first buyer who walks them.
If you've been waiting for the one you don't have to wait on, this is it.
