Be Part of History
HOUSE OF THE WEEK: This historic Murtoa home, once the town’s Police residence, station, and jail, is a true local landmark set at the north end of the main street.
Bursting with authentic period character, it stands as a beautifully preserved showpiece of the town’s heritage.
The home features a grand formal entry and three spacious double bedrooms, each with open fireplaces that add warmth and charm.
A separate lounge offers a cozy wood fire insert and split system for year-round comfort.
The renovated bathroom blends modern convenience with the home's classic style, while the polished original floorboards and timber kitchen—with electric cooktop, under-bench oven, and dishwasher—complete the interior.
Outside, the property continues to impress with a paved entertaining area shaded by a sail, a second toilet, laundry, and the original jail cell—a unique conversation piece.
Additional features include two carports, stables, and the former Police station, now a bungalow.
With a bit of creativity, this space could be transformed into a self-contained studio or guest retreat.
This rare and historic property offers charm, space, and potential, all within walking distance to Murtoa’s amenities.
A one-of-a-kind opportunity for buyers seeking something truly special.
