Whether you’re looking to build the perfect new home for yourself, your family or as an investment, it’s generally just as important to think about where you plan to build as what you plan to build.
Zuccoli has popped up on ‘areas to watch’ lists around the Top End for a few years now, and for good reason. The area has increased in value and is growing at a steady pace as a host of families move in.
At just over 10 years old, Zuccoli is one of Australia’s youngest suburbs. It’s located within Palmerston City, about 24 minutes’ drive south of Darwin. Palmerston’s CBD is only a five-minute drive away.
Zuccoli sits between Mitchell Creek and the Stuart Highway, meaning easy access to nature and all the adventures the Top End can offer. The natural environment has been strongly considered through the construction process, with developments like the Mitchell Creek Green retaining conservation corridors so wildlife can continue to thrive.
But there’s a lot more to Zuccoli: let’s take a look at some of its features below.
All about Zuccoli
Zuccoli was named after well-known identity and aviation legend Guido Zuccoli. The area is a master-planned community which will eventually hold more than 2,300 homes for 6,000 Territorians.Construction is set to continue in stages until 2021.
The area is strongly family-oriented, with a real focus on developing infrastructure to support families who are looking for a space to let their kids grow up as part of an active, outdoors community.
There are various developments currently in progress in Zuccoli, each with its own character and assets.
Given the area’s age, all homes are modern and have been built in a range of appealing contemporary styles.
What are Zuccoli’s assets?

It’s bordered by Mitchell Creek and surrounded by beautiful bushland, making it popular with families looking for a natural, outdoors lifestyle.
In fact, many residents list the area’s proximity to the great outdoors as one of its greatest assets, allowing them to experience the best of a Top End lifestyle while still being close to facilities and work opportunities.
That’s not to say you’ll miss out on creature comforts, though. In fact, Zuccoli has a host of facilities and amenities for residents – many of them newly-built and some to be built in future (there is a larger shopping complex planned in a future release).
