Augustine Heights Suburb Profile and Insights

Report Date: October 2026

Postcode: 4300 (Queensland)

Augustine Heights is a modern Greater Springfield suburb where housing developed in several distinct waves rather than as one uniform estate. Bellbird Park and Redbank Plains sit to the north and west, Brookwater forms the eastern neighbour and Springfield Lakes lies to the south, while Augusta Parkway provides the principal cross-suburb connection. The result is a residential area with noticeably different property pockets despite the relatively recent age of almost all its housing.

Some of the earliest neighbourhoods contain the suburb’s largest conventional house blocks. Hallow Crescent, McAuley Crescent, Christopher Street, Thagaste Close, Aristotle Avenue and surrounding streets include substantial detached homes developed through the mid-to-late 2000s on land commonly around 700 to 1,000 square metres, with selected sites exceeding 1,100 square metres. These properties can retain broad lawns, pools, side access, additional parking and mature gardens around sizeable family houses, giving them a very different character from Augustine Heights’ later compact streets.

Housing developed through the 2010s introduced a wider range of lot sizes. Conte Circuit includes many properties around 590 to 750 square metres, while Rush Drive, Romulus Circuit and Fitzpatrick Circuit move from larger family blocks into sites around 400 to 600 square metres and, in selected cases, close to 320 square metres. Contemporary four and five-bedroom houses remain common across these sizes, so the practical difference is often found in yard area, side access, pool space, driveway width and how much of the site is occupied by the dwelling.

Detached houses overwhelmingly define the suburb, although duplex and semi-detached properties are established in pockets including Ambrose Drive, Thomas Court and Brigid Boulevard. These provide a lower-land or dual-occupancy format without creating a major apartment or townhouse precinct. More recent development around Augusta Parkway and other remaining development sites has continued to introduce compact contemporary housing while selected established streets retain much larger blocks.

Augustine Heights has a stronger internal amenity base than many similarly aged residential suburbs. Augusta State School and Woogaroo Creek State School both provide government primary education within the suburb, while St Augustine’s College provides Catholic Prep to Year 12 education. Augusta Village contains an IGA supermarket and local services, and Jane Gorry Park, William McGinty Park, St Mary MacKillop Park and other reserves distribute recreation through the neighbourhoods.

There is no railway station within Augustine Heights. Springfield Central station, despite its name, is located nearby in Brookwater and is connected with Augustine Heights by buses using Augusta Parkway and Santa Monica Drive. Brookwater Village, Orion Springfield Central, Springfield Central Library, UniSQ, TAFE Queensland and Mater Hospital Springfield form a major surrounding service network. This close relationship with Greater Springfield allows Augustine Heights to retain a predominantly residential character while having substantial shopping, education, health and employment infrastructure nearby.

The predominant age group is 35-39 years.

It has a population of approximately 6,088 people.
