5 Bed | 1.5 Bath | Triple Garage | 1,070m² Corner Block | Zoned R1
Positioned at the corner of Hunter Street and Bourke Street in the heart of Singleton, this well-established 5-bedroom home has been quietly generating strong, consistent income servicing the accommodation demands of the Hunter Valley's booming power station and mining sector. With a proven rental history, triple car garage, oversized R1-zoned corner block, and architect-prepared concept plans for a 16-room co-living development included in the sale — this is an opportunity that ticks every box for the astute investor or developer.
The Income Story
The property commands premium weekly rates thanks to its proximity to major power stations and mining operations across the Hunter:
* Peak Season (August – February): $2,250 per week servicing corporate/resource sector accommodation — approximately $58,500 over 26 weeks
* Off-Peak (March – July): $1,500 per week — approximately $19,500 over 13 weeks
*Estimated Gross Annual Income: ~$78,000+
Whether you continue the proven short-term accommodation model or pursue the significant development upside, the numbers stack up from day one.
The Property
* 5 bedrooms — well configured for group accommodation or family living
* 1.5 bathrooms
* Triple car garage — valuable storage and parking for workers or vehicles
* 1,070m² corner block with dual street frontage to Hunter Street and Bourke Street

The corner position delivers exceptional street presence and, critically, provides the access flexibility that a future development would require.
