Express sale: all offers presented by 17th August 2026 (unless sold prior).
Offered not as a going concern, but with infrastructure in place, Blackwood Banks Cottages presents a rare opportunity to secure a well-established lifestyle property with significant accommodation potential in Western Australia's sought-after South West region.
The property enjoys a unique natural setting, with the Blackwood River forming the northern boundary and State Forest adjoining the western boundary, creating a private and highly desirable rural environment.
Predominantly cleared and divided into three paddocks, the land offers a balance of usability and natural appeal, underpinning its suitability as both a lifestyle holding and an accommodation-based business.
Accommodation:
• 1 x 3 bedroom and 2 x 2 bedroom chalets: Constructed with timber, weatherboard cladding and iron roofing, providing traditional chalet-style accommodation suited to short-stay guests.
• Also a Three-bedroom "Eclectic" Cottage (Main Dwelling): A larger residential-style dwelling utilised in conjunction with the property. It is noted this structure may not be fully approved or registered as a permanent residence, and purchasers should undertake their own due diligence.
• Converted hay shed accommodation: A former agricultural shed adapted into additional guest accommodation, offering self-contained living.
Ancillary improvements:
• Large workshop shed - suitable for storage, maintenance, and operational use
• Detached timber-clad common room - a fully separate communal space providing flexibility for guest use, group gatherings, or retreat-style offerings
Land & setting:
• Blackwood River frontage along the northern boundary
• State Forest abutting the western boundary
• Predominantly cleared land with established pasture
• Divided into three usable paddocks
• Combination of open space and natural vegetation
• Strong lifestyle and environmental appeal
The property has historically operated as a cottage-style accommodation business, appealing to the lifestyle tourism market seeking a peaceful, nature-based escape.
Offered for sale on an "as-is" basis, this presents a genuine opportunity for an incoming purchaser to:
• Re-establish or reposition the accommodation business
• Enhance or formalise existing improvements (subject to approvals)
• Operate a flexible home-based tourism enterprise
• Secure a lifestyle property with supplementary income potential
The property has been held and enjoyed by the current ownership for approximately 30 years, during which time it has provided both an income stream and a rewarding lifestyle. It now represents an opportunity for a new owner to build on that foundation and create their own vision.
