The latest sale values each sqm at $742 (story continues below)
Mr Glode won permission to replace the residential component with 31 townhouses
The Raceview deals come a year since Unison outlaid $5.6m for a 9200 sqm site on the Gold Coast’s Hope Island
Permit ready for a seven storey apartment tower
the group will instead build 42 townhouses around a communal pool
fire pit and alfresco dining space – a project dubbed Santa Monica Residences
Mr Van Lieshout’s portfolio also includes the former Federal Boot factory in Newstead
In 2021, again in Brisbane, the executive expanded a McGregor large format retail investment with 1.1ha costing $17.5m
the [Raceview] property is ideal for Unison Projects to explore options to amalgamate all four sites for a large-scale redevelopment or conduct a comprehensive refurbishment that capitalises on its position as Raceview’s main provider of essential services,” Mr O’Shea said
“Currently experiencing the highest rate of growth of any south east council in Queensland

While suburbs like Redbank Plains topped Queensland’s house sales in 2024
future home buyers looked elsewhere for where they most wanted to move
Property tech firm InfoTrack has released their data on the most searched-for suburbs across the state this year
according to their property website InfoTrackGO
Topping the list was the popular suburb of New Farm
which saw the most searches from those going to the website for real estate metrics and advice
This suburb was the most researched suburb across all of Queensland
InfoTrackGO spokesperson Sandra Falzon said the suburb reached peak interest in March and April
and was popular for its heritage houses and architecturally designed offerings
“New Farm topped InfoTrackGO’s list for good reason,” she said
close to iconic amenities like the River Walk and New Farm Park
with excellent schools and a vibrant dining scene
Increased investment and development in the area have boosted property availability
Suburbs in Brisbane made for nine of the suburbs in the top 10 list
which included 13 suburbs due to several tied spots
The southwest Brisbane suburb of Chelmer and the Ipswich suburb of Raceview tied for second place
Ms Falzon said Chelmer was most well-known for its grand Queenslander homes
with Raceview’s popularity lying in the value for its location
Chelmer and Raceview tied for second most searched for suburb
Affordability and accessibility were top concerns for these users
InfoTrack marked accessibility and affordability as the big reason behind these suburbs’ popularity
with each suburb representing something a little different
“Inner-city areas like New Farm and Palm Beach attract those willing to downsize for a central lifestyle,” Ms Falzon said
buyers seeking larger properties are heading to suburbs like North Lakes or Raceview
where they can find affordable homes while staying connected to major transport routes.”
interest on InfoTrackGO shifted month to month
Brisbane City and Teneriffe regularly appearing
Ms Falzon said this signalled a growing preference for downsizing into apartments and townhouses
buyers are looking further afield to areas like Ipswich and Moreton Bay
Other key observations from their property market update reports included a 60 per cent preference for freestanding houses over units from property buyers
Many of the most researched suburbs in Queensland were in or around the Brisbane area

The fields surrounding the new clubhouse are home to the Brothers Ipswich Cricket Club and the Raceview Soccer Club
Infrastructure and Waste Committee Chair Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding said the building showed council’s commitment to sports and infrastructure
“Council is investing heavily in the city’s future
sports and the environment in this financial year,” Mayor Harding said
“These facilities are for our community to enjoy and I know the Brothers Ipswich Cricket Club and the Raceview Soccer Club’s players will enjoy using the new clubhouse
“This clubhouse isn’t just an investment in physical structures and equipment
because we know sport brings so much more to our community
building connections and inclusion across our multicultural city and keeps people active and healthy.”
Infrastructure and Waste Committee Deputy Chairperson Councillor Paul Tully said the clubhouse had a 200 person capacity
storage facilities and player dugouts to the top fields,” Cr Tully said
“These great facilities will help the clubs grow for many years into the future.”
Division 3 Councillor Marnie Doyle said works had been constructed with accessibility in mind
“There is wheelchair access to bathrooms and all parts of the clubhouse
with accessible pathways connecting the clubhouse to Napier Circuit and the Grange Road car park,” Cr Doyle said
“Future works also include the connection of a new footpath from Napier Circuit along the lower fields through to the existing facilities on Madden Street.”
Division 3 Councillor Andrew Fechner said the clubhouse would help build on the legacy and rich history of the area
“The fields at Jim Donald Parklands include the Shane Watson Oval
the grounds where Shane spent many hours developing the skills that helped him become one of the city’s sporting legends,” Cr Fechner said
“Council remains committed to developing infrastructure in Division 3 that will inspire future generations of players.”
The new clubhouse has amenities for women and men
State Member for Ipswich Jennifer Howard said soccer was experiencing strong growth in recent years
and simple things like providing change rooms can really help with the retention of young female players
“The Raceview Soccer Club has been a part of our community for 50 years and I’m very happy to see that the new clubhouse is open and operating after years of strong advocacy to provide better facilities for players,” said Ms Howard
“As a result of this advocacy by myself and the club
the Queensland Government committed $900,000 in 2020 to build the new multi-purpose clubhouse
and that investment means that players now have change rooms
and space for the club and other community organisations to host meetings and events
“You never know – one or several of them may go on to become Matildas one day!”
Brothers Ipswich Cricket Club President Leo Conway said the new clubhouse had been well received by the players and families
“The new clubhouse at Jim Donald sports fields are a fabulous addition to the sporting facilities in the Ipswich region in combination with the great playing fields there,” Mr Conway said
“Particularly for our club and Raceview Soccer
It provides a great facility for any sporting club or team that has access to the clubhouse
“We’re experiencing a renewed interest in cricket and this facility will help to drive this growth into the future
It will help us develop the next generation of Australian cricketers.”

Horse trainer and multiple Brisbane premiership winner Barry Baldwin has put his trackside home in Hendra on the market
LEADING Brisbane horse trainer Barry Baldwin – whose triumphs include Queensland’s biggest race the Stradbroke Handicap – has put his trackside home up for auction
and wife Margaret could be in the money given their 29 Raceview Avenue
with its own stables that back onto the Doomben racecourse
I’m just downsizing both the number of horses to 16 and the size of the house
I’ve got 20 now,” he told The Courier-Mail
that wife talked to jockeys as they headed to the start of races
“She’s often having a yarn with them over the fence as they head to the 1200 metre start
Incidentally that’s where the Doomben 10,000 will run for the first time (today).”
Punters wanting a look can walk through from 10.30-11am today
and it’s lovely to see the track from the house,” he said
“We’re looking for an apartment or a small house
It will be a massive change and one that we’re not looking forward to but commonsense must prevail
We’re getting a bit older and it’s harder going up and down stairs
I hate to say it but age is starting to catch up with us.”
The home sits on two individually titled 428sq m blocks in an area that has already undergone major rejuvenation
Agent Shane Surman of Freedom Property was marketing the home as being in “excellent original condition and ready to live in or rent today”
Horse trainer and multiple Brisbane premiership winner Barry Baldwin
there was “no character reference in play” meaning the house and stables could be demolished
“This property represents an outstanding opportunity to develop immediately or “nest egg” the two titles,” the listing said
The home has unrestricted trackside views and breezes

20242 min readPictured: Local artist and owner of Raceview Mill
which has been rescued from demolition by local artist and owner Roy McKeown
has been deservedly awarded prestigious Heritage Angel status by The Ulster Architectural Heritage Society
The quest for the 2024 Northern Ireland Heritage Angels came to a conclusion with a prestigious awards ceremony on 27th March
with the support of Mid and East Antrim Borough Council
Gathering last month in the ornate surroundings of the theatre
which provided a fitting backdrop for the gala
winners and highly commended projects were recognised for their invaluable contributions to the field of built heritage of Northern Ireland
The new story of Raceview Mill began 10 years ago
No-one in the village thought it had value or could be saved
after being purchased by the well-known local artist and photographer
Roy brought the 200-year-old mill back to life - a Herculean effort that was completed without grant aid
A centerpiece of the project seen the full restoration of a working waterwheel at the site
The almost 300-year-old stunning feature finally began turning again near the end of 2023 after copious amounts of dedication
commitment and hard work over a five year period
A Heritage Lottery project to create a heritage gallery in also currently in progress
The community project is providing a unique opportunity for schoolchildren from the nearby Broughshane Primary School to get involved and learn about the vast and interesting local heritage of the area
Winner Best Rescue of a Historic Building or Place - Mr Roy McKeown
with host Wendy Austin and Award Presenter Helen Mark
Commenting on what is undeniably a fantastic personal achievement and labour of love
Now Raceview Mill is a unique vibrant heritage business park with 35 businesses and employing almost 200 people including The Wool Tower wedding venue and conference centre
It was worth all the effort and I couldn’t have done it without the support of family and friends.”
family man Roy added: “A third of the world’s waste comes from demolishing buildings and half the resources extracted from our planet are used building new
For the sake of our grandchildren we need to find uses for our beautiful old buildings
“The industrial heritage wrapped up in the 200 year old buildings in Raceview Mill makes it a unique place to get married
locate a business or come with the family for a meal.”
