How Kensington is zoned
Selling in Kensington? The lot-level zone is the zoning Part 3 of Queensland's Form 2 seller disclosure statement asks for - see our Form 2 planning data guide.
Across its 15.65 km², Kensington is relatively unconstrained by the planning overlays we hold. Flood mapping covers the suburb and none of it falls within a mapped flood overlay. We hold no bushfire-prone mapping for this area either, so no bushfire figure is shown. The dominant land-use zone is Rural. The median lot measures about 4,603 m² across 471 parcels. These figures are suburb-wide - the overlays that actually apply to a given lot can differ block to block, which is what a property-level check tells you.

Where can I see a flood map of Kensington?
The schematic on this page is a Kensington flood map: the mapped flood overlays drawn over the suburb's terrain and street grid. Flood lines vary block to block, so for a specific property use the free interactive map - search any Kensington address and it shows the flood, zoning and bushfire mapping on the exact lot boundary.
Is Kensington flood-prone?
Flood mapping covers Kensington and none of the suburb falls within a mapped flood overlay (the Bundaberg Regional average is 25%). Flood overlays vary block to block, so whether a particular lot is affected needs a property-level check.
Is Kensington bushfire-prone?
We don't yet hold bushfire-prone mapping covering Kensington, so this page can't say whether the suburb is bushfire-prone - that is a gap in our data, not an indication that it isn't. Bundaberg Regional is the authority to check for bushfire hazard mapping in this area.
What is the zoning in Kensington?
The dominant planning zone in Kensington is Rural, though the suburb also includes Community facilities and Rural residential. Zoning sets what you can build and do on a site, and can differ lot by lot.
Does Kensington have heritage-listed places?
No heritage-listed places are on record within Kensington. Even so, it is worth confirming for an individual property before any works.
What is the typical lot size in Kensington?
Across 471 surveyed parcels in Kensington, the median lot size is about 4,603 m². There are also 146 registered easements mapped in the suburb - an easement can restrict where you can build, so always check the title and overlays for the specific lot.
Do I need a planning report for a Kensington property?
