On one of Wagga’s most tightly held streets, with a classic design and a few surprises, 13 Murray Street is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom property with a lot to offer a young family or a downsizer.
The property has many hallmarks of red-brick homes in central Wagga, including vintage timber throughout, decorated ceilings, ornate windows, and timber accented windows.
“It’s really indicative of a particular time in Wagga’s history. All of those classic features that people love are here, and the owners have taken great care of it,” Fitzpatricks Wagga Wagga agent Jacob Gooden says.
“Thirteen Murray Street was bought in 1982, and the owners have held onto it for 43 years, which gives you an idea of how valuable it is to the people who live here.”
Additions over the years include a spacious main bedroom at the back, with a built-in wardrobe and a large ensuite.
“The home feels very spacious, which is largely due to the high ceilings – a rare feature in more modern homes,” Jacob says.
While the property has plenty of vintage charm, it has been modernised with 16 Enphase solar panels equalling 6.4 kW with microinverters and a 10 kW Enphase Battery.
“This is a beautiful historic home and it’s seen a lot of love over the years. You can see that in the effort put into the garden,” Jacob says.
The outdoor space steals the show. With fragrant lavender bushes, fruiting lemons, lush shrubs and established trees providing shade, it’s a stunning space.
“The pergola covering the alfresco area has established wisteria growing over it. It takes a long time to achieve that sort of look,” Jacob says.
“With the amount of space out the back, there’s even room for the next owner to add their own touch with garden beds or veggie patches.”
A large garden shed out the back makes any garden or home project even easier.
In winter, when it’s a bit too cool to sit in the alfresco, the home has a sunroom out the back that seamlessly flows on from the kitchen.
“The sunroom is a great entertaining/conversation space, and it’s an ideal place to take in all that greenery,” Jacob says.
Located moments from Wagga Wagga Base Hospital and just a few streets from the CBD, 13 Murray Street is uniquely positioned to take advantage of the best that Wagga has to offer.
“We really anticipate that a healthcare professional will really appreciate this sort of proximity to the hospital but anyone can see the value in being this close to the centre of town,” Jacob says.
Parks, cafes, local pubs, schools, shopping, and more are never more than a few minutes away, making it ideal for downsizers or families looking for a walkable lifestyle.
“There’s a good reason why homes in this street are rarely for sale. When it comes to lifestyle and convenience, it doesn’t get much better than this,” Jacob says.
A beautiful historic home with a stunning outdoor space in one of Wagga’s most desirable streets, 13 Murray Street provides the perfect lifestyle for a young family or downsizer.
