1-5 Hay Terrace, Wirrulla, SA 5661

Discover a unique opportunity in the heart of Wirrulla, a quiet and friendly Eyre Peninsula township. Conveniently positioned on the main street and within walking distance of local facilities, this substantial property offers plenty of space, character and versatility, approximately an hour's drive from both Streaky Bay and Ceduna.
Set across three township allotments totalling approximately 3,086m², the property provides an impressive amount of outdoor space. Two allotments are fully fenced, while the adjoining triangular allotment is unfenced and offers potential for a variety of uses or could be incorporated into the main yard.
Formerly the Wirrulla Police Station and residence, this solid stone building dates back to the 1940s and reflects the quality construction of its era. Vacant in recent years, the property presents an exciting opportunity for new owners to bring fresh life to this distinctive piece of local history.
The former station area is an impressive 7m x 5m, featuring carpet, fluorescent lighting, a two-door timber storage cupboard, wall heater, reverse-cycle air conditioning, covered fireplace and separate external access. An internal doorway conveniently connects this space to the residence, creating possibilities for additional living, recreation or work-from-home use.
The residence offers four good-sized bedrooms, with carpet, ceiling fans and horizontal blinds to the windows. All main rooms have ducted air conditioning vents. A central passage with built-in linen storage connects the main living areas, while a covered entrance provides welcome protection from the weather.
The formal lounge includes an enclosed fireplace and reverse-cycle air conditioning. The combined kitchen and dining area features vinyl flooring, bench and overhead cabinetry, electric oven and grill with gas cooktop, stainless-steel sink and a generous walk-in pantry with extensive shelving.
The tiled bathroom includes a corner glass shower, bath, vanity with mixer tap, mirrored cabinet and exhaust fan.
At the rear, the porch provides access to the separate toilet and laundry, which includes a wash trough and four-door built-in cupboard. The fourth bedroom offers excellent flexibility and could alternatively be utilised as a family room or sunroom, with direct access to the three-metre-wide paved rear verandah.
Outside, the expansive rear and side yards provide plenty of room to establish gardens, entertaining or recreation areas while enjoying the shade and character of established mature trees. Improvements include a single garage with roller door and side access, an attached lean-to offering additional vehicle space, a second single garage and a small ancillary stone building that once formed part of the property's original police facilities.
Additional features include two rainwater tanks, double-gate access from the main street, paved and concrete pathways, and extensive open areas ready to be transformed to suit your lifestyle.
With its substantial landholding, four-bedroom residence, additional former station area and numerous outbuildings, this property offers wonderful potential for first-home buyers, families, couples or anyone looking for extra space and versatility.
A property with history, character and room to make your own, this is an opportunity well worth exploring.
