About this property

Set on approximately half an acre and surrounded by sweeping rural views, this beautifully transformed former St Mary's School offers a unique blend of history, character and modern family living. Built in the 1920s and fully renovated with care, the property now stands as a spacious five-bedroom home that balances charm with everyday comfort. Inside, the home retains the warmth and personality of its schoolhouse origins. Original flooring and original windows preserve its historic feel, while dado boards line the walls and high ceilings create an airy sense of space. The large heritage windows allow natural light to pour into every corner. With three separate living areas, the floorplan provides exceptional flexibility for families wanting room to spread out or entertain with ease. The kitchen is inviting and thoughtfully finished, highlighted by striking river redgum countertops that add warmth and craftsmanship to the space. An integrated dishwasher and modern appliances make the kitchen both functional and stylish. The home features three bathrooms in total, with two bedrooms enjoying private ensuites. The main bathroom is a true feature, complete with a classic claw-foot bath that enhances the home's period charm. The master bedroom includes a private ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, while four of the remaining bedrooms are fitted with built-in wardrobes, giving the home excellent storage. Ceiling fans in every bedroom further ensure comfort throughout the seasons. While the character has been carefully preserved, the home has also benefited from extensive upgrades. It has a brand-new roof and has been completely re-plumbed, re-insulated, re-wired, and re-plastered, offering peace of mind and the efficiency of a modern build behind its historical façade. A substantial 45,000-litre rainwater tank and a bore for year-round garden greenness support the property, adding sustainability to its long list of features. Outdoors, the half-acre allotment (approx. 2011sqm) offers space, privacy and beautifully maintained grounds. Manicured lawns and established gardens frame the home, creating a peaceful setting where you can relax and enjoy rural living at its best. Perfectly positioned in the heart of Woodford, the home delivers the tranquillity of the countryside with the convenience of being only minutes from Warrnambool. Rich in history and beautifully updated for modern life, the old St Mary's School is a rare opportunity to enjoy character, comfort and space in an unforgettable setting.
