Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠An Expression of Interest will be offered in early 2021 for the land and historic buildings located at 1 Surrey Street Bassendean.

The buildings comprise:

  • the Pensioner Guard Cottage, being the oldest building still standing in Bassendean built by convicts (circa 1856)
  • a Residence later built in 1893.

The Offer
Council is committed to ensuring heritage locations and buildings of historical value within the Town are recognised ​and cared for.

Interested parties will be required to demonstrate a genuine community benefit associated with their intended acquisition, which must include elements of heritage restoration and ongoing community access, and may also include a financial benefit for the Town.

At a minimum, the requirement for “community access” is to enable the Bassendean Historical Society to open the Pensioner Guard Cottage to the public on a monthly basis.

Potential interested parties may include private individuals or organisations. Considerations for use of the site may extend from being a private home through to a community facility or consulting rooms (subject to Council approval).
