Lifestyle

Be close to everything at Jumping Creek.


Jumping Creek is only 3 kilometres from Queanbeyan or Jerrabomberra, and 15 minutes from the Canberra CBD, making it a stone’s throw from work, catching a show at the performing arts centre, going out for dinner on date-night, getting the weekly grocery shop done, or picking up the kids from school. 

    Nestled in nature

    There’s nothing better than immersing yourself in nature, and at Jumping Creek, we’ve designed our community to embrace the natural beauty surrounding us. Here, you’ll discover a true sense of connection with the natural landscape. Two creek lines meander through the valley, while the Queanbeyan River is just a short walk away. Some lots enjoy views up the Queanbeyan River to White Rocks and across the site to the beautiful bush mountain backdrop.

    Umbe Yukeembruk Park

    Nestled in the heart of Jumping Creek will be the future Umbe Yukeembruk Park, named by the local Nambri people after the Australian Crow. Scenic paths meander beside creeklines, and adventure play equipment will challenge kids of all ages. There will be bush food trails, and bush paths that connect this space to the nearby Queanbeyan River.
