Professionals Real Estate 
An historic former inn, which is a landmark in an emerging arts and tourism hub in the Upper Hunter Vallley in New South Wales, is set to change hands thanks to one of Professionals’ newly branded businesses – Professionals Crown Property & Livestock at Scone.
Haydonton Inn at 2 Mayne Street, Murrurundi, has been placed on the market through David Carter of Professionals Crown Property & Livestock at Scone.
David’s family has lived in the area since 1849 and he has listed the historic inn which has now been transformed into a beautiful three-bedroom home following a “meticulous” renovation in recent years.
Built in 1852, Haydonton Inn was one of the original accommodation houses in the region and it comes with an amazing history. It was named after Thomas Haydon who subdivided a large block of land in 1840, becoming the townsite of Murrurundi.
Mayne Street is also home to a large number of buildings listed on the National Trust register. These heritage buildings include a slab cottage where one of Australia’s best-known bushrangers, Ben Hall, spent much of his early childhood.
Murrurundi is roughly 300km north of Sydney, and has developed a growing reputation as an escape from the big city for those seeking a weekend or permanent tree-change.
With its growing arts community and being a popular destination for visitors who are interested in the heritage of the area, the purchaser of this unique property could easily use it as a family home, rural retreat or bed and breakfast.
Situated on 3.7 acres backing onto Pages River, the renovations combine beautiful original features with modern convenience. Some of its main features include three bedrooms, a modern kitchen, a formal sitting room, a study, formal dining room and a spacious living area inside, and for the horse lover or hobby farmer, the property has two safely fenced paddocks, a set of three stables designed with a central cathedral roof and a functional feed/tack room. The property also boasts an equipped registered well in addition to local town water supply.
David Carter of Professionals Crown Property & Livestock at Scone is happy to welcome all enquiries and will offer clients good old Professionals service of personal, friendly and reliable advice.
