Nestled in the timber-clad hills of the South Burnett, Blackbutt is the kind of town people fall in love with on their first visit and dream about long after they leave. Named after the towering blackbutt eucalypts that gave the district its proud timber heritage, this friendly community blends genuine country hospitality with everything you need for everyday living, all wrapped in fresh country air and beautiful rural scenery.
A Town With Heart
Blackbutt’s main street is full of character, with a famous country bakery, the much-loved Bunya Nut Café, the historic Hotel Radnor, an art gallery, a nursery, a hardware store, a newsagency and a SPAR supermarket. Weekends are made for coffee and a pie, browsing the local shops and catching up with neighbours. The town is also proudly home to the Roy Emerson Museum, celebrating one of Australia’s greatest tennis champions, who grew up right here.
Everything a Family Needs
Blackbutt State School, a C&K kindergarten and an early learning centre are all in town, along with a medical centre, a library, a vet, police and fire services, and a Services Australia agent. For active families there’s a public swimming pool, a skate park, tennis courts, parklands, a golf course and the showgrounds, home to community events throughout the year.
Your Backyard Adventure Trail
Right on your doorstep is the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail, Australia’s longest rail trail and a favourite for walkers, cyclists and horse riders. From the estate, it’s an easy 18-minute stroll along the trail into town for shopping, a meal or a cold one at the pub.
