The land sits on Frome Street in the central area of Port Augusta, South Australia. Port Augusta lies on the eastern shores of Spencer Gulf, about 310 km north of Adelaide. The suburb is part of the broader Port Augusta community, which had a population of 13,515 in the 2021 census

Port Augusta is a key transport hub, located at the junction of the Eyre Highway (to Perth), the Augusta Highway (to Adelaide) and the Stuart Highway (to Darwin). The city has a railway station within 1 km of the property and an airport about 6 km away, serving fly‑in‑fly‑out workers. Coach services also connect the town to Adelaide and other regional centres
