Lot 85 & 86 Hillman Street, Darkan WA 6392

The wheatbelt town of Darkan was established not long after the area was settled by Europeans in the 1860s and the Collie to Narrogin rail line was created.

Today, the township of around 400 people is the social and administrative centre for the Shire of West Arthur, 63 kilometres east of Collie.

Like other wheatbelt towns, Darkan offers affordable housing to first time buyers, retirees and investors with an eye on the strong rental demands from farmhands and other service workers in the district.

This particular duplex property is set on two blocks totalling 2,024sqm, each consisting of two, 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom units both rented on a weekly basis.

Both properties have their own water and electricity meters, and both have reverse cycle air-conditioning, separate yards and single garages.

The property could use some TLC to bring it up to contemporary comfort and give it more street appeal, but it's perfectly functional, has "good bones" and is a great opportunity to get a foothold on the property ladder.

With the Darkan community on the rebuild, the Tavern has re-opened, and the vibrancy is returning as more people look to the country for a quieter life, a sense of community and more affordable accommodation.

Being close to Darkan Primary School, community pool, bowling and golf clubs, plus the refurbished Tavern, at this price it's pretty hard to go wrong.
