Located just minutes from the main street of Clare, yet wonderfully secluded, it provides a peaceful sanctuary for family, friends and guests alike.
As you arrive, passing the charming boutique vineyard. you are welcomed by The Art Gallery & Studio, this light-filled, airy space, is currently utilised as an artist's studio and gallery, complete with storage, a kitchenette, separate workshop and store room. French doors invite seemless indoor-outdoor living, enhancing the creative atmosphere. With its flexible layout, the space presents exciting potential for a Cellar Door*, or Bed and Breakfast* (subject to council consent) or continue as a Gallery and Studio.

The entry leads the way into a stunning open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area, all framed by expansive glass doors and windows that capture breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.
The well-appointed kitchen offers generous storage and bench space, designed for effortless entertaining while remaining connected to both indoor and outdoor living zones. Comfort is assured year-round with ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, while a central slow-combustion heater adds warmth and ambience to the living and dining areas.
A second living room provides a peaceful retreat and leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. A fourth bedroom, currently used as a home office, is conveniently positioned off the entry hallway. The master suite enjoys beautiful north and west-facing views, complete with a walk-through robe and a fully tiled ensuite.
High ceilings, quality fixtures and fittings, and an abundance of natural light enhance every room. A spacious main bathroom and well-sized laundry complete the home's thoughtful layout.
