37 High Street

One of Macarthur's most notable properties is being presented for sale. Formerly a hotel, The Farmers Inn has, in recent times, operated as boutique accommodation and tearooms, however the opportunities for a new owner are endless. The unique layout of the property makes it ideal for use as a substantial multi-generational home, with plenty of room for large families to each live comfortably under the one roof. This superb listing is ideally positioned in the township of Macarthur, right by one of Australia's great national heritage landscapes, Budj Bim National Park, and nestled between Port Fairy to the south and Hamilton to the north. A meticulous renovation has restored the striking property to its former glory, merging the period charm of the circa 1900 building with the modern conveniences of today. The property has been re-stumped, and the plumbing and wiring completely replaced. Not a stone has been left unturned. Containing a total of six bedrooms, four bathrooms and three living areas, with the ability to shut some sections off, the property is perfectly equipped to operate as a bed and breakfast. With the capacity to seat around 30 people, the front room makes a statement with its 18 foot pressed metal vaulted ceiling. This unique space has kitchen facilities and is ideal from which to operate a café, wine bar or function centre (STCA). In the main residence, you will find a spacious living and dining zone, neighbouring a vast commercial kitchen, complete with Falcon double oven, walk-in pantry and plenty of preparation space. A breathtaking established garden provides a tranquil space for residents and visitors to relax and the addition of raised garden beds and a sprinkler system allow for the opportunity to grow and harvest your own fresh produce. The property is also fitted with a 5.5kW solar system, plus a 75,000 litre rainwater tank, supplementing town water and an Aquanova treatment and garden drip system. The superbly renovated, character filled property is packed with potential for those seeking to pursue their hospitality dreams (STCA).
