TREE CHANGE….

If you’re considering a move for your career or just wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of metropolitan life, the Rockhampton region boasts all the facilities of a capital city without any of the worries.  The region offers a mix of city, urban, suburban, acreage, rural and village living.  Diverse lifestyle options are dotted amongst open spaces of rural landscapes in a way that provides a consistently good mix of urban and non-urban living with affordable rents and mortgages.

Well known as the Beef Capital of Australia, Rockhampton is situated on Queensland’s largest river, the Fitzroy, 40 kilometres inland from the beautiful Capricorn Coast beaches and just above the Tropic of Capricorn. The City is surrounded by the Berserker Ranges and Mount Archer (607 metres high), posing an impressive backdrop for the vibrant City centre, business districts and residential areas.

With a great range of public and independent schools, boarding schools and Queensland’s first dual sector university (CQUniversity), Rockhampton is an educational mecca. Its diversified economy makes it a critical commerce and service city for Central Queensland with  government and professional offices, medical expertise including three hospitals and a great range of leisure activities, restaurants, quality shopping, sporting clubs and facilities.
