Yeppoon’s first purpose-built over-50s community in more than a decade is generating strong demand from everyday Queenslanders seeking more affordable, quality housing in a prime coastal setting.
Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon will comprise up to 450 thoughtfully designed homes at 73 Limestone Creek, Inverness, alongside a multi-million amenities precinct, enabling over-50s to downsize into quality lifestyle oriented downsizing options in a sought-after coastal location.
Lincoln Place Chief Executive Officer, Paul Yeo, said half of the early enquires had come from locals, with a large amount of the balance of enquiry coming from across regional Queensland, including Rockhampton, Gladstone, Mackay and the Fraser Coast.
“Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon is resonating as a popular option for both locals and seachangers from further afield, all drawn to this relaxed coastal lifestyle,” Mr Yeo said.
“Locals appreciate the rare opportunity on offer here and we are seeing more and more over-50s looking to downsize from larger traditional family homes while staying in the community they already know and love.
“Further afield, regional Queenslanders who have lived on the land are ready to discover a new way of living, and are being drawn to Yeppoon’s tropical climate and pristine beaches.
“Located less than 10 minutes’ drive from local shopping centres and the Yeppoon Golf Club, as well as the beachfront and Keppel Bay Sailing Club, Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon is primely positioned close to everyday conveniences, but distanced enough to enjoy peaceful, resort-style living in a stunning, nature-rich Inverness location.”
Unveiling a first look at the home designs, Mr Yeo said the low-set two- and three-bedroom floorplans were thoughtfully designed around Yeppoon’s climate and lifestyle.
“We’ve designed this community with coastal conditions in mind with layouts positioned to capture natural light and coastal breezes, native plants and low-maintenance landscaping and air conditioning as a standard inclusion,” Mr Yeo said.
“At the heart of the community will sit a state-of-the-art clubhouse, recreation spaces and amenities that promote an active, social lifestyle, including a wellness centre, heated pool, community garden, lawn bowls green, pickleball courts and an array of lounge, dining and BBQ areas, pocket parks and green spaces.
“The community itself will be gated, offering a private and secure environment for residents who can lock and leave when they want to travel, with RV and boat storage on-site for when they are home.”
Mr Yeo said the new home designs were first shared with Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon’s Priority Access Club (PAC) ahead of the public launch, giving them the first opportunity to secure their preferred lots.
“At our most recent Yeppoon PAC event, attendees travelled from a broad geographic area, including Emerald, Gladstone, Rockhampton and surrounding areas, reinforcing the level of enquiry we’ve received from beyond Yeppoon.
“With more than 40 people in the Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon PAC, early uptake demonstrates strong demand for purpose-built housing in this region,” Mr Yeo said.
“These eager purchasers will select their preferred lots at the community, and these sites will be allocated before the project launches to the wider market.”
Lincoln Lifestyle Yeppoon will be delivered under the popular land lease model, creating opportunities for people over 50 to embrace a new lifestyle. Mr Yeo said more than 3,000 Australians already call a Lincoln Place land lease community home across Australia’s eastern seaboard, underscoring the growing appeal for this style of living.
“When you buy into a land lease community you own your home outright, but there’s no Stamp Duty, no Exit fees, no body-corporate fees, and no council rates, creating an opportunity for the resident to free up equity from the sale of their current home,” he said.
“The only ongoing cost is a weekly site rental and utility usage fee that also covers the maintenance of the community and an abundance of exclusive lifestyle amenities in and around the clubhouse.
Early purchasers can choose from a selection of two and three-bedroom floor plans, featuring quality fit outs, landscaping and air-conditioning designed for Queensland weather, with the first homes expected to be completed in mid-2027.
