We love the convenience of being within 6 minutes to the CBD of Port Augusta and having the space of living with 5acres around us on the edge of Stirling North. The kids can walk to the local Primary School and Deli in 15min (from everywhere in Stirling North really!). Most of the houses on the highway side are on large allotments or acreage, the other side of the street are all on good size blocks too; many house blocks are a minimum of 1200m2 in Stirling North. The neighbours are great and it's a pretty quiet street to live on.

My family moved to Stirling North about 15 years ago and it wasn't the place I initially planned to live long term. We left after 2 years and guess what....we were back....and here we are still, having made many great friends in the area and now have stable employment for the whole family. Port Augusta and surrounding areas are not reliant on one employment industry, which is why it is has been a resilient town for many years.
There are not many places in the country where you can live within short distance to the Sea and the Ranges (the mighty Flinders Ranges). Within an hour you can be from a boat in the water to climbing many of the hills in the area; Devil's Peak, Dutchman's Stern, Mount Remarkable, Mount Brown, Alligator Gorge, just to name a few! Stop awhile and ask the locals, you'll be glad you did!
