A POT OF GOLD
Full-time prospector, part-time adventurer, night-time stargazer, 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; an off-grid homestead, a house under the stars, a tourism venture, a shack or simply land to hold onto.
