Mount Morgan to see another boom with 600-lot development

PAUL Czislowski is about to wake a sleeping giant.

The Landtrak managing director announced yesterday his development company was weeks away from starting work on a 600-lot housing development in Mount Morgan.

Harcourts have listed four-bedroom, two-bathroom house and land packages on the Rifle Range Rd development from $333,000.

As part of his Archer's accommodation group grand plans, which stretch from Miles in south-west Queensland to Kinka Beach on the Capricorn Coast, the masterplan development would incorporate an upgrade of the former gold mining town's golf course.

The Zilzie man said Mt Morgan's existing infrastructure meant it was an attractive location for the development of Landtrak's Panorama Links and Panorama Ridge estates.

"Mount Morgan has been identified as a town that is over-serviced and under-populated," he said.

"It's got all the infrastructure, like schools, that you need."

Visiting the region last weekend, Paul was joined by investors from the Beijing-based Metallurgical Group Corporation who viewed the Mt Morgan site along with the Kinka Beach project.

The man behind the Gracemere trade centre and business park expansion said with land availability decreasing, Landtrak was looking for new areas to move into.

"It's part of the ripple on effect as Gracemere has now run out of land to develop," he said. "Mount Morgan is one place that has plenty of land to develop - it's a sleeping giant."

The property developer has been trying to develop Mt Morgan for three years, but was confident with the current situation.
