Why South Maclean
South Maclean sits beside the Greater Flagstone Priority Development Area, planned by the State for about 51,500 homes and a population of up to 138,000 people, which makes it one of the largest urban growth areas in South-East Queensland. It lies between the future employment precincts at North Maclean and Bromelton, on the Mount Lindesay Highway and the Brisbane to Sydney rail line.

What makes South Maclean stand out in the Logan corridor:
- Beside a planned growth area, not a single estate. The Greater Flagstone PDA is designed for up to 138,000 people, with roads, water, schools and town centres planned in from the start rather than added later.
- Between two future job precincts. The growth area sits between the future employment precincts at North Maclean and Bromelton, which are intended to bring local work closer to where people live.
- Location and transport. South Maclean is on the Mount Lindesay Highway and the Brisbane to Sydney rail line, giving a road and rail link back toward Brisbane and out to the Scenic Rim.
- Tight rental demand. Logan is one of the corridors where affordability spill-over from Brisbane has kept rentals very tight, which underpins steady demand from families and owner-occupiers.
What Pearson Bros Homes sells in South Maclean
We develop and sell completed, turnkey homes in the South Maclean area, finished before they are listed. Most builders in this corridor sell build-to-order house and land, which means two contracts, progress payments and a build wait. We do it the other way around: the home is already finished, sold under a single contract of sale at a fixed price, so you settle on a normal property timeline of about 30 to 60 days and move in or lease now.
Every home is built to the NCC 7-Star energy standard and carries a 7-year structural warranty under the QBCC Home Warranty Scheme plus a 12-month post-handover maintenance period.
First-home buyers of a new home pay nil Queensland transfer (stamp) duty with no value cap on contracts dated from 1 May 2025, and may qualify for the First Home Guarantee (5 percent deposit, no LMI) up to a $1,000,000 Greater Brisbane price cap. For investors, dual-key and duplex layouts can lift income from a single title. An SMSF can also buy a completed home outright as a cash purchase: note that new SMSF residential borrowing (LRBAs) is legislated to end from 10 August 2026, with existing arrangements and contracts exchanged before that date grandfathered, so speak with your own SMSF specialist.

What is the Greater Flagstone PDA?
The Greater Flagstone Priority Development Area is a State-declared master-planned growth area in the City of Logan, west of the Mount Lindesay Highway along the Brisbane to Sydney rail line.
