A million dollars does not even get a roof above your head in a large part of Australia, but the neat amount can secure a great importance in one sleepy rural city.

For the costs of a modest Melbourne house, or a compact apartment in Sydney, an ingenious buyer could acquire a grain silo, a church, a few warehouses and several houses in Woodstock just outside Cowra, NSW – all for less than $ 1.2 million.

Alternatively, each mention can be purchased separately for just $ 150,000.

Once a vibrant mine center, Woodstock was first visited by Europeans in the mid -19th century, because enthusiastic pioneers for gold and copper in the region forage. Some gold was discovered in the neighborhood, but the city was better known for its copper deposits.

At its peak, Woodstock was the home of around 8,000 people – including high -profile bush rangers such as Ben Hall that roamed through – with eight hotels, various shops, banks, churches and an active train line.

Nowadays the gold has disappeared, replaced by yellow fields such as hundreds of hectares of Canola crops and wheat farms in the course of spring.

The train line has been suspended since the 1980s and the population has now fallen among 800 people, but the quiet rural city still has enough to offer according to Makelaar, Danielle Pye from Agri Rural NSW.

“There is a beautiful school, a bowling club, a popular pub and a good community connection in Woodstock,” said Mrs. Pye.

“You have the Wyangala -dam not far away, as well as Oranje, Bathurst and Blayney. You are in the middle of the beautiful agricultural country, with modern conveniences like a new hospital in Cowra, just 20 minutes away.”

Mrs. Pye, next to her colleague Josh Keefe, currently has a three -bedroom house for sale at Waugoola ST in Woodstock with a price guide of $ 295,000.

The partially updated house with one bathroom and a carport is 943m² and is within walking distance of both the Woodstock Bowling Club and Woodstock Hotel. It also features a fireplace, air conditioning, a solar system of 10 panels with inverter, plus an electric hot water system.

The agents have also just recorded a uniquely deceased estate on individual titles, including a multi -residential building that needs a complete renovation on Parkes ST, and a few warehouses on Rankin St.

Both properties are on the market for $ 150,000 each with an online auction opening on 31 October.

Lot A and B on Parkes St has an original shopping front and house from the 1950s, as well as a historic building with two floors dates from the 19th century.

Pye explained that the 847m² site could possibly be a five -bedroom residence with 543m² living space under the roof. There are various wood fires, two original bathrooms, a laundry and an old shop front.

Due to the state of decline, the ‘Blanco Canvas’ is only available for viewings at the deductible of the house hunters, according to Mrs. Pye.

“They must sign exemption before they are visiting, because it needs extensive renovation. It is absolutely not livable at the moment, but there is so much potential.”

Despite the habitable condition, the offer has aroused a considerable amount of interest in just four days on the market.

“We have had nine serious questions, and I have already shown a few people. You rarely find that size of real estate for that amount. Some are just interested in the houses, others with the nearby barns,” she said.

“There is no heritage list, so a buyer could do what they want, according to the approval of the council.

The second half of the deceased estate comprises a block of 1283m² with two detached buildings on Rankin St; A structure with two rooms with original Blue Stone foundations that can be converted into a studio, workshop or weekenddrethraite.


The second independent building on the same site is an old grain storage shed, also ripe for restoration. This pair of warehouses borders the Parkes ST building on the back of the block.

“In Covid Times, many people came to the region looking for lifestyle and affordability, then we had a bit of a silence. Now we start seeing investors again in this way as prices and interest rates fall. There is certainly more buyer activities now.”

Although it is located in the central western region of NSW, Woodstock is about 20 minutes from Cowra, an hour of Orange, an hour from Bathurst or two and a half hours from Canberra.
