Once the heartbeat of the village, this traditional weatherboard residence and cash store has been thoughtfully transitioned into a substantial family home, offering a rare blend of heritage charm, modern comfort, and genuine future potential.Historic Charm Meets Modern ComfortBehind the classic facade and full-length front veranda lies a home of surprising scale and warmth.

The kitchen looks out into the large, enclosed breezeway and entertainment area, creating a seamless connection for family gatherings.• Thoughtful Upgrades: The current owners have invested heavily in year-round comfort, including a new wood heater in the dining area and the replacement of many ground-floor windows with tinted double glazing.• Accommodation: Five bedrooms in total, including a convenient ground-floor master.
