GemLife launches $210m lifestyle resort in Kilcoy



A brand-new chapter in over-50’s living has begun in the Somerset Region, with GemLife Kilcoy Greens officially launching sales at its much-anticipated lifestyle resort in Woolmar, just outside the township of Kilcoy.

The $210 million development marks GemLife’s first resort in the Somerset area and signals a major step forward in modern, active, and community-focused living for over 50s.

Purposefully designed for those wanting low-maintenance living with plenty of lifestyle appeal, GemLife Kilcoy Greens is positioned to set a new benchmark for downsizers who love sport, nature, and the great outdoors.

Sales Consultant and long-time Kilcoy local, Vicki Sweedman, said the project had already attracted strong interest from locals as well as from Brisbane buyers seeking a relaxed rural setting with quality amenities.

“Designed to appeal to people who want to stay close to the places they know and love, GemLife Kilcoy Greens has so much to offer,” she said.

“The Kilcoy Race Club is right next door, there’s a golf course only minutes away, and fishing and boating at Lake Somerset are just up the road.”

The resort will offer an exceptional range of recreational and leisure facilities. A grand Country Club will serve as the social heart of the community, complemented by the relaxed charm of the Summer House.

Other highlights include a ten-pin bowling alley, cinema, games room, and a dance hall with stage. For fitness lovers, tennis and pickleball courts, a lawn bowls’ green, a golf simulator, a fully equipped gym, and a heated pool and spa provide plenty of ways to stay active.

Set across 18 hectares, the master-planned community dedicates more than half its footprint to open space. A scenic 1.5-hectare lake forms a tranquil focal point, with walking tracks meandering through landscaped gardens rich with native birdlife.

When complete, the resort will comprise 276 architecturally designed homes, each featuring two bedrooms plus a multipurpose room, high ceilings, solar panels, and a 7-star energy rating for sustainable, year-round comfort.

“Kilcoy is a town with a lot of heart and history,” Vicki said. “Bringing GemLife here will give locals a new way to live well without leaving the community they love.”

Stage One homes at GemLife Kilcoy Greens are now selling off the plan from $725,000.
