Burnside Road, Marrakai NT 822, Australia
The property at LOT 5405 Burnside Road is a standalone house. It is the primary structure on the lot.
Marrakai is located about 76 kilometres (47 miles) east of Darwin. It is a rural locality within reach of the city.
Marrakai is bounded to the west by the Adelaide River, to the north by the coastline of Van Diemen Gulf, and to the east by the Mary River. These waterways shape the locality's landscape.
The name combines a local Aboriginal word “kie”, meaning river, with a corrupted form of the English name “Mary”. It reflects both Indigenous and colonial influences.
The 2016 Australian census recorded 517 residents in Marrakai. This reflects a small, close‑knit community.
Marrakai lies within the federal division of Lingiari and the Northern Territory electoral division of Goyder. It is also part of the unincorporated areas of the NT.
The locality of Marrakai itself is just 1.5 km away, and the historic Rose Gardens weather station is approximately 1.7 km from the property. Both are within easy walking distance.
