The well known Squatters Arms is a beautifully restored historic stone house located on 6 acres in the Snowy Monaro Region. Originally constructed in 1841, and as one of the regions oldest houses, it exudes charm and is rich in history. If only the walls could speak! This property has lived several lives; once servicing the Snowy Monaro as an Inn, a restaurant, an antique store, a pottery house, a café, a bed & breakfast, and now a family home with a profitable guest house. Continually boasting an old world charm, the property showcases timeless features such as woodfires in every living area, original stone feature walls, detailed crafted mantles, beautifully finished hardwood floors, an underground cellar, large stone stables and a peaceful hardwood front verandah that overlooks the established lavender gardens. Upstairs you will find a country style timber cladded space with two living areas, two bedrooms, toilet, and ample under eve storage. The perfect space for privacy with the potential to be used as a teenagers retreat, guest accommodation or an office space. The Inn's original kitchen, which is separate from the homestead, has been fully restored and is currently operating as an Airbnb.
