Own piece of land in one of WA's most historic gold towns!
Are you a full-time prospector, part-time adventurer, night-time stargazer or dabbler of prepping? Have you ever fancied your own slice of dirt in a historical Goldfields town? Menzies was founded in the late 1890s when gold was discovered in the area. By 1900, the town had swelled to 10,000 with 13 hotels, 2 breweries, 40-bed hospital and 320 mining leases. Today, the community sits around 200 people, making this a great choice for the introverts, mavericks and non-conformists. Situated 133km north of Kalgoorlie, Menzies has a beautiful town hall, pub, primary school, post office, caravan park, playground, waterpark and airfield. A revival of the town is underway with tourism ventures, astro-photography and Australia's largest world-class art site, the beautiful, stark and mesmerising Antony Gormley Sculptures on nearby Lake Ballard. Magnificent landscapes, so much space, captivating sunrises and exquisite sunsets, clear deep-sky nights; Menzies is a dream for those who need to be away, outside and feel the beating call of the Goldfields. This quarter-acre block is the start of a whole new chapter; with access to power or an off-grid homestead, a house under the stars, a tourism venture, a shack or simply land to hold onto.

Menzies overview
The townsite of Menzies is located in the eastern goldfields, 728 kilometres east northeast of Perth and 132 kilometres north of Kalgoorlie. Gold was discovered in this area in 1894, and Mr Leslie Robert Menzies and John McDonald were the first to take up a lease here in October 1894, naming their lease the "Lady Shenton". It was a rich gold find, and the Mining Warden for the area recommended a townsite be declared in 1895, referring to the place as "Menzies" after the prospector. Menzies was an American born prospector who had sought gold in America, Africa and New Zealand, and came to Australia on behalf of a syndicate. The townsite was gazetted in August 1895.
