Development underway in Kuranda by Jumrum Rainforest Pty Ltd
About
The estate’s master plan has included thoughtful caveats to protect both the old growth forest remnants and areas of regenerating rainforest with part of each block also designated as permanent native vegetation zones. This means the glorious view that you can have from the back veranda can never be lost, and it will only get better with time. You will also be the envy of visiting family and friends when they see the kind of nature walks you can take right in your very own neighbourhood
Just imagine waking to the calls of birds each morning in the cool of the sunrise or watching native animals coming down to drink in the creek. Many of these outstanding blocks even have their own creek frontage bringing the music of trickling water and cooling breezes.
