Browse property in Jalan Ketam Merah

Jalan Ketam Merah runs through a quiet residential stretch of the island where the 1970s‑era Silver City neighbourhood dominates the streetscape. The houses are aluminium‑clad, built to be cyclone‑proof, and sit against the island’s steep, cliff‑lined terrain that rises abruptly from the coast. The road remains a typical island thoroughfare, with many sections accessible only to four‑wheel‑drive vehicles when the tropical weather turns wet.

Transport links to the street are limited but reliable: the nearby container port at Flying Fish Cove handles freight, while QantasLink provides scheduled passenger flights from Perth to Christmas Island Airport, where a small fleet of rental cars can be pre‑booked. Residents and visitors rely on the island’s modest amenities – a small supermarket, several restaurants in The Settlement, a district high school, a public library and community sports facilities such as cricket and rugby league grounds.
