Own a genuine piece of Clarence Town's rich past with this beautifully renovated four-bedroom, two-bathroom home on just over half an acre. Set on a generous 2042sqm parcel, this property was originally known as the Commercial Inn, operating from 1861 and connected to the vibrant river trade of the late 1840s and 1850s. Today, the home carries that history with pride-stone, blocks and relics offer a glimpse into what was once a bustling hub for travellers and locals alike.

The beautifully updated kitchen offers an electric stove and oven, generous bench space, ample storage and a combined butler's pantry and laundry complete with sink and dishwasher.
The master bedroom is generous in size, featuring a tastefully renovated ensuite, built-in robes and its own air-conditioning unit. Bedrooms two and three are separated by a versatile central space ideal for a children's play area or home office, while the fourth bedroom sits at the front of the home and offers a cosy option for guests or a study. The main bathroom has also been stylishly renovated and includes a shower over bath, vanity and toilet.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The gently elevated block offers a lovely outlook and a great yard for families, hobbyists or gardeners. A charming cobblestone and brick breezeway adds character as it leads to the home from the double carport, a third outdoor toilet will come in handy for those using the workshop and a DA approval for a double garage-left on-site ready for future erection is perfect for those already wanting a shed.
