Stoneleigh planning - frequently asked

Where can I see a flood map of Stoneleigh?

The schematic on this page is a Stoneleigh flood map: the mapped flood overlays drawn over the suburb's terrain and street grid. Flood lines vary block to block, so for a specific property use the free interactive map - search any Stoneleigh address and it shows the flood, zoning and bushfire mapping on the exact lot boundary.

Is Stoneleigh flood-prone?

Flood mapping covers Stoneleigh and none of the suburb falls within a mapped flood overlay (the Toowoomba Regional average is 13%). Looking lot by lot, 0% of the 76 properties we analysed in Stoneleigh 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 Stoneleigh bushfire-prone?

Yes - around 28% of Stoneleigh 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 Stoneleigh?

The dominant planning zone in Stoneleigh is Rural, though the suburb also includes Open Space and Unzoned. Zoning sets what you can build and do on a site, and can differ lot by lot.

Does Stoneleigh have heritage-listed places?

No heritage-listed places are on record within Stoneleigh. Even so, it is worth confirming for an individual property before any works.

Is Stoneleigh hilly or flat?

Stoneleigh is gently undulating: the median lot slope is about 5%, and 1% of properties sit on slopes of 15% or steeper. Ground level runs from roughly 461 m to 577 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 Stoneleigh?

Across 79 surveyed parcels in Stoneleigh, the median lot size is about 322,940 m². There are also 16 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.
