Where can I see a flood map of Clontarf?
The schematic on this page is a Clontarf flood map: the mapped flood overlays drawn over the suburb's terrain and street grid, covering about 6% of the suburb. Flood lines vary block to block, so for a specific property use the free interactive map - search any Clontarf address and it shows the flood, zoning and bushfire mapping on the exact lot boundary.
Is Clontarf flood-prone?
About 6% of Clontarf falls within a mapped flood overlay, against the council-wide suburb average of 13%. Across the suburb, 0% of the 58 properties we analysed carry some level of mapped flood risk. Flood overlays vary block to block, so whether a particular lot is affected needs a property-level check.
Is Clontarf bushfire-prone?
Yes - around 14% of Clontarf is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Toowoomba Regional average of 20%. A bushfire-prone designation can trigger additional building requirements, so check the specific address.
What is the zoning in Clontarf?

Clontarf is largely flat: the median lot slope is about 2%, and 5% of properties sit on slopes of 15% or steeper. Ground level runs from roughly 416 m to 600 m AHD across the suburb. Slope drives site costs - cut and fill, retaining walls and driveway grades - so it is worth knowing before you commit to a sloping block.
What is the typical lot size in Clontarf?
Across 61 surveyed parcels in Clontarf, the median lot size is about 1,062,169 m². There are also 20 registered easements mapped in the suburb - an easement can restrict where you can build, so always check the title and overlays for the specific lot.
