Another SOLD by Frans Lems! Located 516 km north of Adelaide, less than 6 hrs drive through the stunning Flinders Ranges, Beltana is a truly remarkable State Heritage listed town in outback South Australia. Settlement began in the area in the 1850's and the town was surveyed 23 years later. By 1883 the Town had grown to a total of 70 houses with 390 people living here. It had a pub, a police station, a hotel, a train station and many stone cottages to house the miners and their families. The closing of the mines and railway eventually turned Beltana into a deserted spot with just a few residents not wanting to give up their proud heritage town. In recent months several properties have been purchased by keen renovators to restore them to their original condition and over the past 20 years a total of 12 houses have been built as holiday homes and permanent residences. Today the opportunity exists to own a part of the Town and purchase this 1.5 acre (approx.) block of land which potentially can be subdivided into 3, half acre allotments (allotment 67, allotment 68 and allotment 69) STCC on the corner of First and Fifth street. Power and rubbish collection available (conditions apply). No Council rates payable. Waking up on a cool morning to the sun sparkling on the leaves of the trees, watching Emus wander past or Euros grazing among the Salt Bushes, discovering a small, still waterhole in the creek or a flowering Eremophila on a rocky hillside, watching the golden rays of sunset light up the foothills and Mt Stuart - these magic moments are a daily experience for those lucky enough to live in Beltana. All buildings in Beltana are privately owned and occupied and there is a permanent population of 35 and an active community of 65. Why not come for a Sunday drive and emerge yourself in the History of this fascinating town and read the interpretive signage or have a picnic by the creek. Just imagine owning your own piece of History going back to the early 1850's! Source: beltana.org.au
