144 Kersley Street, Southport NT 822, Australia
144 Kersley Street is a standalone house. It is the only property type listed for this address.
The house is located in Southport, an outer rural locality of Darwin, at the historic junction of the Blackmore and Darwin Rivers. It lies just 0.3 km from a local park and 0.4 km from the Southport locality centre.
Southport was a thriving river port during the 1870s Pine Creek gold rush, serving as a depot for the Overland Telegraph construction and gold‑mine supplies. The town later declined after the railway opened in 1888, and most public buildings were removed by the 1890s.
Within a kilometre of the property you will find a park (0.3 km), a stream (0.9 km), and the Blackmore River Conservation Reserve (1.2 km). A family outstation is also located about 2.1 km away.
A concrete boat ramp is popular with local boating and fishing enthusiasts and is situated nearby. However, most of the river remains inaccessible due to tidal mangrove swamp.
Remnants of the World War II No. 224 Radar Station, including tower foundations, can still be seen near the former Southport Road railway station. The site once guided allied aircraft during the later stages of the war.
The area includes a cemetery (1.0 km) and a weather station (0.4 km) within walking distance. There are no shops, camping or toilet facilities directly in Southport.
