Aire Riverside at a glance

Aire Riverside is Orchard Property Group's second estate in Lilywood, a sister community to its nearby Aire estate, set along the Caboolture River on the western side of Morayfield. The estate is centred on Mitchell Circuit, and the riverside corridor beside it is kept as parkland with walking trails.

Turnkey house and land packages start from $916,721, with four and five-bedroom family homes in the range. Stage 1 is registered, and Stages 2 and 3 are now selling. This guide covers package pricing, the builders and inclusions, the location and the purchase process. Current lots are on the Aire Riverside listing.

Aire Riverside pricing and packages

The current entry package is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home of 182.45m² with a double garage on a 315m² lot. The schedule below comes from our Aire Riverside listing and refreshes when builders update their price lists.

4 bedroomFrom $916,721

Bed / bath / car 4 / 2 / 2Home / lot 182.45m² on 315m²

5 bedroomFrom $1,169,900

Bed / bath / car 5 / 2 / 2Home / lot On request

Moving up the range, the step from four to five bedrooms brings a package priced at $1,169,900. For buyers who want a separate media room or space for extended family, the five-bedroom package is the main reason to look at Aire Riverside.

The schedule shows bedrooms, home size, lot size and starting price for each package, so you can compare the four and five-bedroom options at a glance and then open the listing for floorplans.

Each price is a fixed turnkey figure covering land, construction, site costs and finishing works such as landscaping and fencing. Two homes of the same design can differ in price because of lot width, slope, orientation and facade, so it is worth comparing a few lots side by side.

Builders and inclusions

Packages at Aire Riverside come from three Queensland builders. Having several builders in one estate widens the range of floorplans and facades, and lets buyers compare how each builder treats the same lot.

The listed inclusions feature 20mm stone benchtops, 900mm stainless steel appliances and soft-close joinery in the kitchen, 2590mm ceilings, zoned reverse-cycle air conditioning and a dedicated main bedroom suite. Facade options on the current plans include the Tecoma 183 in the Serenity facade and the Mornington 188 in the Urban facade.

Inclusions differ between builders and between packages, and the building contract is the document that defines them. Ask for the full inclusions list of each package you are considering and compare them line by line, from floor coverings to driveway finish.

Each builder must hold a current QBCC licence, which anyone can check on the Queensland Building and Construction Commission's online register, and new homes are covered by the Queensland Home Warranty Scheme. Our guide to the statutory defect warranty explains what that cover includes. It is also worth asking each builder for its current construction timeframe from site start to handover, and how its contract deals with weather and other delays.

Location and getting around

The estate sits west of central Morayfield, with schools, shopping and the rail line reached by a short drive. These are measured distances from Aire Riverside:

  • Morayfield State School: 3.0km · 5 min drive
  • Morayfield Shopping Centre: 5.8km · 9 min drive
  • Morayfield railway station: 6.0km · 10 min drive
  • Morayfield State High School: 6.3km · 10 min drive
  • Caboolture Hospital and health precinct: 7.5km · 12 min drive
  • St Columban's College: 7.7km · 12 min drive
  • Carmichael College: 8.3km · 13 min drive
  • Burpengary Plaza: 10.0km · 15 min drive
  • UniSC Moreton Bay campus: 20.6km · 30 min drive

Trains from Morayfield run south to Brisbane on the Caboolture line, and north toward the Sunshine Coast. Families weighing school options have both state schools and two independent colleges, St Columban's and Carmichael, within a quarter of an hour.

A riverside estate in Waraba's first precinct

Lilywood was named by the Queensland Government in April 2023 as one of the first suburbs of Waraba, the city planned for the former Caboolture West growth area. Over about 40 years, the government expects the area to hold around 30,000 new homes for roughly 70,000 residents, with new state schools, neighbourhood hubs and local parks planned along the way.

Upper Caboolture had 3,597 residents in June 2025 according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, with growth of 2% over the year. Aire Riverside therefore sits on the established edge of that future city, close to Morayfield's existing services while the new suburbs around it take shape. Our Waraba guide covers the plan in more depth.

Aire Riverside or Aire Living

Orchard Property Group's first Lilywood estate is marketed through the Aire Living packages, which start from $936,629 and are built by a single builder. Aire Riverside offers a wider range of builders and five-bedroom designs. Compare the two in our Aire Living review.

Buying a package at Aire Riverside

Each package is bought under a land contract with the developer and a separate building contract with the chosen builder. In Queensland, transfer duty is generally calculated on the land contract alone, and construction starts after the land settles. Our guide to turnkey and split contracts explains deposits, progress payments and construction finance under this structure.

When comparing packages, line up the price, the lot size and frontage, the inclusions schedule and the expected title date side by side, so that each figure is measured the same way across the options you shortlist.

Before committing, request the estate design guidelines, the survey plan for your lot and each builder's inclusions schedule, and have your solicitor review both contracts. A broker can confirm how your lender treats a construction loan. To compare Aire Riverside lots across all three builders, talk to our property specialists, who can send current price lists and floorplans.
