Set on 485 acres of undulating, sub-tropical bush land only 3.5 hrs north of Brisbane in Queensland, Australia, on the outskirts of the village of Gin Gin, Kookaburra Park is a unique community style ecologically sustainable development that offers a lot for a little cost.

This ecologically sustainable development was designed by internationally acclaimed permaculture consultant Max Lindegger. Comprising of only 124 freehold allotments and 350 acres of commonly owned bushland, creeks, dams and agricultural land.

The common land contains access roads that meander through the Park past Lakes that have been created along an existing watercourse. These Lakes provide utility water to the lots through a gravely fed water system.

All lots are serviced by underground power and phone as well as the utility water.

An extensive design process was carried out in the creation of Kookaburra Park that employed the Permaculture Principles of “Care of the Earth and Care of the People”. Natural features were set aside and building lots were pegged out by hand.

The lots, at an average of one acre each, have been placed in clusters to promote hamlets. The lot placement follows design rules of having no more than three lots together and at least two boundaries facing common land.

This means your neighbours are close enough to keep an eye on your lot while your away but their not in your back pocket either.

The wildlife on the Park has increased greatly over the years. Kangaroos roam freely around Kookaburra Park and we are frequently visited by lots of different bird life.

A pleasant 45 minute drive west of Bundaberg just before Gin Gin, Kookaburra Park is located on the right hand side of the Bundaberg Gin Gin Road.
