This beautiful block situated in the highlands of Christmas Island has ocean views to the north west and is high enough to enjoy the gentle breezes which keep any tropical mugginess at bay. Zoned R40, the 1155m2 corner block could take 5 units or simply a beautiful island home. Christmas Island is a unique and beautiful island situated in the Indian Ocean 2,500 kms north west of Perth and just 350 kms south of Indonesia. With the exception of its neighbours the Cocos Keeling Islands just about as far from WA as you could be yet still enjoy the huge advantages that an Australian Territory can offer. Advantages such as safety, the best medical facilities, English speaking, full services including sewerage PLUS some – the island is GST AND Duty Free and crime is virtually non-existent! Traditionally the economy has depended on phosphate mining, but this will be phased out over the next 3 years leaving eco-tourism the main industry. The majority of the island is already National Park and host to some of the most unique birds and crabs some of which are endemic to the island. With the Java Trench dropping off to huge depths, the diving fishing and snorkeling is equal to that anywhere in the world making this potentially a real hot spot for the most jaded tourists. The island is only 40 kms across with a population of approximately 1,400 people – a diverse mix of mostly English, Chinese and Malay live side by side in complete harmony enjoying each others cultures and religions. A visit to “CI” is like stepping back in time! Take this wonderful opportunity to be a part of it.
