We have been inundated by people wanting to make a ‘tree change’ to Levendale.
The $1 housing has been snapped up and is no longer available, but if you would like to register your interest in moving here to help us rebuild our school and contribute to our community, register your details on the About link.
For bargain housing check out the real estate link above.
Please have patience — our community is doing its best to accommodate your enquiry. We will up date the rental list shortly.
