11-13 Frew Street, Chillagoe QLD 4871

A stone's throw from the main drag in Chillagoe, around the corner from the Black Cockatoo Pub is ‘Budgey’s Place’. A flat block with only one neighbour. The other side a council reserve and behind is a beautiful rock bluff which is home to gorgeous rock wallabies and an array of birdlife including black cockatoos, peacocks and happy Jacks...

Currently a shed exists on here with a bedroom and portable en-suite bathroom. Electricity and town water are connected with the sewerage system soon to be approved. It is a blank canvas to build whatever you like. A shed house or conventional house, storage for machinery or whatever you would like to build (with Council approval of course).
Also, (can be purchased separately) are four 20 foot containers if you wish to stack them and build a funky container home. They come with all the components of a house. One with bedroom, kitchenette and toilet: two bedrooms that could take bunk beds for workers or kids: two bathrooms mirror image: and one for machinery or storage. Or strip them out and start again…
Across the road is 10 Acre Park that connects with the creek below called 'Bogey's Hole'. Ideal spot for a swim on a hot day or a cool drink at the end of the day. This creek is beautiful, overhanging trees, crystal clear water and rarely anyone there.
Chillagoe is a historic town famous for the Chillagoe-Mungana Caves National Parks. Explore Donna, Trezkinn and Royal Arch Caves on a guided ranger tour or enjoy self guided tours or walking trails throughout this area. The old Chillagoe smelters site is an excellent example of how the mining of copper, silver, lead and gold smelting at the turn of the 20th Century was done. The physical remains at the Chillagoe Smelters preserve important evidence of historic smelting processes that are rare today. Well worth a visit.
A quaint town with loads of history, even more to do especially if you love camping, walking, watching the stars, exploring the bush by 4WD or just living the quiet life in the bush yet only 2.5hours from Cairns.
