4 Concept Abington Heights is a 73 lot housing estate, which will be staged over 7 stages during the coming years, found on Stockyard Road, off Goodwood Road, Childers, just 6 minutes from the bustling community of Childers, 20 minutes from beautiful Woodgate Beach, 35 minutes from Bundaberg and just 45 minutes from Hervey Bay airport with direct flights to major capital cities. The lots are a minimum of 5000m 2 each, surrounded by natural bushlands and adjoined by an environmental park, so named Russo Park in recognition of the contribution made to the Isis District by the Russo family over the past 100 years, which is being developed as a self-contained passive recreational resource maintained by the Developer and Bundaberg Regional Council. The park already has walking tracks formed, a new footbridge crossing Stockyard Creek and a number of picnic tables in place, making it a wonderful peaceful natural area for walking and picnics. The Estate is enhanced with underground power, town water and sealed roads, and has access to all the usual amenities of the local Council. The Developer has finalized an entry statement with landscaping and the decorative fence along the main drive has been built from local timbers. Only 1 lot remains unsold in Stage 1 and disclosure statements available for Stage 2, thus making it pay a deposit now to secure your preferred block with settlement in approx 6-12 months. Plans are now underway for developing of Stage 2 which will consist of 6 blocks, 6,7,8,9 & 10 & 55.
