Positioned in the heart of the charming village of Clunes, this character-filled residence offers a rare opportunity to secure a substantial 1,063 sqm site, complete with a historic family home, versatile shop space, large shed, and exciting future potential. The home showcases timeless charm, generous proportions, abundant natural light, and solid hardwood construction, providing the perfect foundation for buyers seeking lifestyle, space, and opportunity.
The original timber shop is woven into the fabric of Clunes’ history. Believed to have first served as a bank or post office in the late 1800s, the building became the Hurst Family Saddlery in 1900, where three generations of the Hurst family crafted and repaired saddles and harnesses for the district. Arthur Hurst was recognised as one of the last practising saddlers on the North Coast, continuing the traditional trade well into the motor vehicle era. Over the years, the building has adapted with the changing times, becoming The Shack second-hand store before later operating as the Jasper Gallery. Today, it stands as a rare opportunity to own not only a versatile commercial space but an authentic piece of Clunes’ heritage.
