Halcyon Dales, Stockland’s newest over-50s community located at the foot of the Glass House Mountains on the Sunshine Coast.
The development is designed to meet the increasing demand for high-quality, low-maintenance homes, offering retirees the chance to embrace a more relaxed lifestyle while remaining close to key amenities and natural beauty.
Halycon Dales for the Over-50s Community
Halcyon Dales is set to build 212 turnkey homes on a 15-hectare site, with breathtaking views of the Glass House Mountains and easy access to beaches, local shops, and the Bruce Highway.

The Sunshine Coast is a prime location for those seeking a sea or tree-change, with a peaceful environment that still offers modern conveniences.
Halycon Dales, A Resort-Style Living
True to the Halcyon brand, the development promises resort-quality living with a range of high-end amenities. These include a heated magnesium pool, a two-storey clubhouse, pickleball courts, a bowling green, and a gold-class cinema.
There will be arts spaces, salon treatment rooms and saunas that provide the perfect place to unwind. These features combine to offer a lifestyle that prioritises relaxation and enjoyment.
A Growing Market for Over-50s Living
Stockland’s research shows that Australia’s over-50s population is expected to grow by 1.8% annually over the next decade, with Queensland seeing a higher rate of 1.9%. As the baby boomer generation approaches retirement, there is increasing demand for suitable housing options.
Halcyon Dales is designed to meet this demand, offering a modern, affordable solution that allows retirees to downsize without sacrificing comfort or quality of life.

The land lease model used at Halcyon Dales is a key selling point. Unlike traditional homeownership, it allows retirees to free up capital without the burden of stamp duty, hidden costs, or deferred management fees.
Homeowners also retain all capital gains, offering a significant financial advantage over conventional housing options.
Hassle-Free Living with a Quick Build Time
One of the standout features of Halcyon Dales is the guaranteed nine-month build time. This quick build time means that homeowners can enjoy their new property sooner with the first homes expected to be ready by mid-2025.
Stockland is also investing in infrastructure improvements around the development. These include an upgraded intersection at Steve Irwin Way, with widened roads, a turning lane, and new pedestrian footpaths connecting Halcyon Dales to Beerwah’s town centre.
Halcyon Dales: The Perfect Place to Downsize
Halcyon Dales is a highly anticipated development, offering retirees the perfect balance of peaceful living and modern convenience. With limited availability in nearby communities and its prime location, Halcyon Dales is expected to attract significant interest. Expressions of interest are now open, with the first release of six sites scheduled for January 2025.
An information session for prospective buyers is scheduled for 5 February 2025 at B by Halcyon in Buderim. Due to the high demand, early registration is recommended.
For every one that wants to make the most of their retirement years, Halcyon Dales presents the ideal opportunity.
