The daughter of a Macedonian woman, who was found bludgeoned to death in her home at The Gap in Brisbane's west, has been charged with her murder.

The 20-year-old is due to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court tomorrow.

The body of Radica Zafirovska, 54, was found on the second storey of her house last Friday morning.

Her daughter called police after allegedly discovering her mother's body

She was extensively questioned at the time and has spent the past week staying with friends.

Acting Detective Inspector David Farley said conversations with people overseas led to the daughter's arrest

"The homicide has involved blunt trauma, damage to the victim's head and that is far as we will take it," he said.

"We obviously believe we have the grounds to make the arrest and still ask the community to come forward if they have information," he said.

Acting Detective Inspector Farley thanked the local community for assisting police and the State Emergency Service (SES) which scoured the area for two days after Ms Zafirovska's body was found.

He refused to confirm reports the SES had found a weapon.

"What I can say is they have certainly assisted in the investigation," he said.

Detective Farley said police believe the accused acted alone.

"We are satisfied with the action to date but we are not close minded to rule out any information that may come forward."

Police have been conducting a forensic examination of the house, which remains a crime scene.
