History tells us that the area of OLD Eagle Heights began to be developed around a century ago. Certainly some of those very early homes are still standing, although like most homes in these streets that form this much loved enclave, it is difficult to find them amidst the luxuriant vegetation and superb gardens. Most subdivision was also done long ago, so it is very rare indeed to find any remaining vacant blocks. People mostly buy old homes and refurbish or demolish and totally rebuild.

So you can call yourself lucky if you stumble over a block such as this that has been cleared except for a few large trees and is ready for building. The Tamborine Mountain Development Control Plan indicates that the size and location of the land would most likely lead to Council approval to build a duplex here and a step-back style of development would seem to be ideally suited.

On the other hand, this is a premier location with a magic outlook over the acreage garden across the street and would also suit a high quality private home, ideally a double storey home for the very best outlook from the top level. The perfect red volcanic soil will allow quick development of a beautiful garden here and this is one of the few areas on Mt. Tamborine where you can grow both paw-paws and custard apples.

If you have ever dreamed of moving into a premier address of OLD Eagle Heights, now is your opportunity to do it. The value of scarce property holds well in poor times and grows rapidly in good times when demand outstrips supply. People who buy prime property in a high demand location now will reap the benefit in the years to come.
