Originally constructed as the Oddfellows Hall, built of local limestone in 1863 by the International Order of Oddfellows (IOOF).
The District Council utilised the hall and met for a time after 1864 in the small single storey back room. The hall served as the town’s first cultural centre as a popular venue for lectures, concerts, recitals, soirees, meetings and Willunga shows. The IOOF also did a lot to assist the sick and the poor in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.

Positioned perfectly in the main street of Willunga this magnificent structure is impressive and spacious, combining large open spaces together with cosy cottage charm.

Enter through the solid stone entry foyer and step onto the locally quarried slate floor slabs and be greeted by an ambiance due to being surrounded by the history, warmth and character of the building.
Natural light is abundant throughout reflecting off the Baltic floorboards in the main living area.
This space has endless options in its use, from enjoying the area as an enormous living space or separating this area from the rear living spaces to explore the many commercial/retail uses (STCC)
Currently this area is utilised as a grand residence where clever use of this space provides areas that are tranquil and relaxing where a book can be taken from the large library, or as a musician you can play to your hearts content.
Part of the living room is under the cover of a large mezzanine accessed by a genuine solid timber character staircase, currently used as a bedroom.
The floors leading down the passage and into the rear of the building incorporate cut slate and solid slate slabs with genuine old lead light features in the doors that separate the private spaces.
3 bedrooms run off the passage with 2 of them featuring character fire places.
The main bathroom is filled with natural light and function, upgraded and showing hints of old style French character.
Being located in the centre of one of Australia’s most well known wine and produce precincts, one could only expect a kitchen that impresses any master chef.
Boasting stainless steel kleenmaid appliances, solid jarrah bench tops and custom designed oak cupboards, this kitchen will be the envy of all of your friends.
A second smaller living area/dining area is located in the open plan rear cottage style addition with convenient access to outdoor entertaining through 2 timber/glass doors.
The large backyard has a veggie patch and lots of room for children and pets to play.
