An entire town for sale.

On a remote stretch of land in Western Australia , the town of Cossack has been lying deserted for the better part of 70 years.

Now, the WA government, in conjunction with real estate agent, LJ Hooker, are taking on Registrations of Interest , inviting private sector parties to propose ideas for how to revamp the derelict township. On the market for the first time, Cossack is home to 12 heritage-listed buildings and nearby Jarman Island is included in the listing.

It will also entertain supporting the regeneration of a heritage asset which will also ensure the long-term conservation of the site. “Overtime, nearby townships including Port Samson and the employment hub of Karratha assumed the local population base.“But Cossack sits in an amazing pocket of the Pilbara. The townsite is bordered by the azure water of the Harding River. This campaign presents a developer or entity with a rare chance to deliver a vision and ongoing commitment for a low-impact activation of a piece of WA’s history.
