North Lakes is a suburb in the City of Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia. In the 2021 census, North Lakes had a population of 23,030 people.
Lake Eden is within the suburb of North Lakes.
Plantation Road Bridge is a 95-metre (312 ft) road bridge over the Bruce Highway to linking North Lakes to Dakabin along Plantation Road.
North Lakes is situated in the Yugarabul traditional Indigenous Australian country.
In 1891, the Kinsellas brothers secured land for breeding and training police horses. By 1928 their 405 hectares of land was used for dairy farming as the Allesnik Dairy Farm. At the time, Norman Meyers owned a pineapple plantation that remained there until the 1960s. The land at time was very competitive. Following the construction of the Australian Paper Manufacturers Mill at Petrie, slash pine plantations extended through North Lakes from the 1970s, and finally wound down operations in the 2000s.
The exotic slash pine plantations—largely considered unsuccessful—were last harvested in 1994-5. Afterwards, the former plantation sat as a paddock, freeing land for commercial developers. In 1995, developer Lends Lease Development Pty Ltd first announced the construction of a master-planned community in the Mango Hill area. The North Lakes project officially commenced on a 1,000-hectare site, led by developers Lend Lease and Lensworth Group Ltd in a joint-venture in April 1999. On 15 September 1999, an agreement was signed between CSIRO and the two developers for the construction of the suburb using sustainable and eco-friendly methods. This would include the usage of solar passive houses that were orientated to the sun to reduce energy. The entire development projected the construction of 8,500 residential houses, a town centre, business park, and support community services built over a 20 year period. It had a planned population of 25,000 people.
In December 2004, Stockland acquired Lensworth with a cost of $825 million and working capital cost of $21 million. Afterwards, the group further developed North Lakes, which had a remaining net developable area of 450 hectares at the time. This would nave yielded approximately 4,200 housing lots.
