Description: A remarkable piece of Wyalong history, beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated.
Originally built in 1900 as the former Wyalong Post Office, this locally heritage-significant property combines timeless period character with modern comfort, exceptional shedding and extensive outdoor amenities.
Historic Character & Elegant Interiors
• Period features have been carefully retained throughout, including wide skirtings, polished timber floorboards, soaring ceilings and original fireplaces.
• The generous lounge room is a standout feature, incorporating the original Post Office counter, French doors leading to a sewing/storage room, reverse-cycle air conditioning and the original mantlepiece. Quality carpets and a neutral colour palette create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
• There are four spacious bedrooms, all with generous built-in robes. Three bedrooms feature ceiling fans, while two retain their original mantles and fireplaces.
• At the heart of the home is the expansive open-plan kitchen and dining area, complete with another original fireplace and mantle, now fitted with a gas insert. The near-new kitchen features stone benchtops, abundant storage, dishwasher, electric cooktop and wall oven.
• The large laundry provides excellent storage, while the tiled family bathroom includes a bath, separate shower recess and toilet.
• Wraparound verandas extend along two sides of the home, complemented by an enclosed entertaining area designed for year-round enjoyment.
The Glass Gallery
• A purpose-built second building, the Glass Gallery, provides an exciting range of possibilities. Constructed with sheet and rendered walls, it includes two reverse-cycle air conditioners and an attached, lined storage room.
• The building is connected to the substantial garage/workshop, which includes its own shower and toilet.
• Subject to Council approval, the Glass Gallery could lend itself to a home office, home business, studio or secondary accommodation, potentially suitable for a B&B, permanent accommodation or a teenagers' retreat.
Exceptional Shedding & Outdoor Features
The property continues to impress outside, with:
• Four-car garage/workshop, steel framed, lined and fully powered with additional bathroom.
• 39 solar panels, plus three-phase power
• Excellent corner-block access from Slee Street via an electric gate
• Rainwater tanks and pump supplying the garden
• Pop-up sprinklers and irrigation to all green areas
• Original 'his and hers' double-brick outhouses
• Inground swimming pool
• Multiple fenced garden areas, including courtyard spaces
• Hot houses and greenhouses
• Chicken coop and established garden infrastructure
A rare opportunity to secure a substantial historic property with remarkable original character, modern improvements, extensive shedding and genuine versatility.
From its origins as Wyalong's former Post Office to its current role as an exceptional family home, this is a property with history, presence and possibilities.
