A pair of neighbours from Doolandella have decided to team up to sell their acreage properties to interested developers, amidst the housing boom in Forest Lake and its surrounding suburbs.
Wally Wrona and Nora Cerneaz, the homeowners of 53 and 55 Crossacres Street, have agreed to list their land on the market together, offering more than 20,000 square metres of flood-free space primed for housing or other future developments.
After 30 years of living next to each other, Mr Wrona and Ms Cerneaz believe it’s time to pack up as the surroundings around them continue to change.
Ms Cerneaz said she doesn’t want to stay and witness more tearing down. Mr Wrona, on the other hand, understands that their combined lands could be valuable to a community as it’s near all the conveniences of a burgeoning residential hub.
In the last few years, 21 new houses were built on the hectare block next to Mr Wrona’s property. He said that both his land and Ms Cerneaz’s site will really help with the volume housing developers are looking for.
According to realestate.com.au, their lands are conveniently accessible to:
- Richlands railway station is 10 mins drive
- TAFE Qld Inala campus and nearby shopping Plaza
- Brisbane CBD accessible by motorway in under 40 minutes
- Serviceton South State School (3 minutes)
- Oxley Bunnings or the Home Superstore (9 minutes)
- Forest Lake recreational parks and shopping centres
- Logan motorway & Centenary Highway entry points
- Springfield Orion shopping & commercial centres
Mr Wrona lived on Crossacres Street since the 1980s. The son of Polish World War II immigrants, his family is friends with the Palaszczuks. Ms Cerneaz’s family, on the other hand, acquired their Doolandella property in the 1990s after leaving Texas.
