Believed to have been partly constructed in 1910 by Ned Hackett-who operated Hackett's Store from the front of the home. Nestled opposite the iconic Walkaway Station Museum, this property offers a rare opportunity to become the next custodian of this heritage gem.

Set on a generous 5651sqm block with wide, gated side access, the property boasts ample parking and practical access to sheds and paddocks and plenty of space to breathe.
