Moreton Bay property sales

Large Block of Land Sold by Frank Pike and 3 Newport Homes Sold by Roxanne Paterson — The Top 10 Sales across Moreton Bay Over The Last 3 Months

A $4.8 million Morayfield landholding sold by Frank Pike tops Moreton Bay’s latest Top 10 Results for the last three months, while three Newport waterfront homes handled by Roxanne Paterson dominate the coastal end of the list.

InfoTrack data shows suburbs like Caboolture (#1 in house sales) and Morayfield (#2 in house sales) are leading Queensland for transaction volume, driven by affordability and larger blocks. Morayfield also tops the list for sales of vacant land.

At the premium end, that same demand is concentrating into two distinct price drivers — land scale in growth corridors like Morayfield, and waterfront scarcity in tightly held markets such as Newport.

The Top 10 results reflect this clearly, with the highest sale driven by development-grade land and multiple $3M+ outcomes clustered within a single Newport waterfront strip, rather than dispersed across the region.

The Top 10 Sales (Last 3 Months – Early 2026)

The following sales highlight what is setting the benchmark across Moreton Bay’s premium market.

Insights and Trends

The pattern across these sales aligns with broader market data. InfoTrack shows Moreton Bay’s growth is being driven by:

• Affordability relative to Brisbane
• Larger land parcels
• Access to transport and employment hubs
• Ongoing infrastructure investment supporting long-term confidence

At the top end, those same drivers translate into three clear value categories:

Land scale (Morayfield, Wamuran, Mount Samson)
Waterfront scarcity (Newport, Redcliffe)
Lifestyle positioning (Bribie Island)

Notably, standard suburban housing does not appear in this list despite driving transaction volume across the region.

No Longer Just a Growth Corridor

Moreton Bay is no longer just a market defined by affordability, but one operating across two distinct segments — a high-volume market led by suburbs like Caboolture and Morayfield, and a premium market driven by waterfront, acreage and lifestyle assets.

What links them is not just demand, but land: the same preference for space at entry level is translating into price growth at the top end, where scarcity, scale and positioning become the primary drivers of value.
