- 14 new residential lots to be released at popular Waranyjarri Estate in Broome North
- Within walking distance to Broome North Childcare Centre
- 550m Tanami Drive extension completed, boosting connectivity and safety in Broome North
- Release of land for new housing part of Cook Government's efforts to ensure more people in the Kimberley have a place to call home
The Cook Government is releasing a further 14 residential lots at Waranyjarri Estate, including 11 single residential and three grouped housing lots.
In addition, five lots have been pre-allocated for social housing in Western Australia's only EnviroDevelopment and Waterwise-accredited regional community.
DevelopmentWA has implemented an end date sales strategy for this upcoming release to provide ample opportunity for the community to submit an offer to purchase on their preferred lots.
The new sales strategy will alleviate the need to make offers to purchase in person at the sales office, with submission forms available online, and is designed to provide a fair and balanced platform for all parties to submit offers on up to three preferred lots in the latest release of residential lots.
Lots will range in size from 700sqm to 1145sqm with prices starting from $360,000.
Waranyjarri Estate residents are also benefiting from the Broome North Childcare Centre, which has been operating successfully since opening in September last year and caters to children aged from birth to six years.
The centre includes five classrooms, two outdoor playground areas and a seasonal growing garden that encourages outdoor learning and play.
The Government has also completed the 550-metre Tanami Drive extension in Broome North, delivering safer and more efficient access for residents, visitors and emergency services.
The upgrade includes a new roundabout at the intersection of Fairway Drive and Sanctuary Road, and forms part of a broader program of infrastructure upgrades being delivered by DevelopmentWA to support the expansion of the Broome North community.
Additionally, 15 industrial lots are currently being prepared for release at the Blue Haze Light Industrial Area as Stage 5 sales edge closer.
The light industrial lots provide a prime opportunity for commercial businesses to expand their footprint in the Kimberley and service the greater Broome area.
Sales for the Blue Haze Light Industrial Area lots will go live in the coming weeks.
