A rare opportunity — offered for the first time in 140 years — to secure one of Clunes’ most distinctive commercial buildings, positioned proudly on the main street and steeped in local history. Built circa 1890 and operated as the town butcher until the 1940s, this solid bluestone structure retains an exceptional collection of original butchery features that are seldom seen today.

Inside, the former shop front includes the original sales counter, marble preparation bench, two authentic chopping blocks, ice chest fridge and metal hanging racks. Beneath the shop is the cellar that once provided cool storage, adding to the historical authenticity and uniqueness of the space. Three sides of the building are constructed from bluestone, giving it a remarkable presence and character.

Rear access is available from Purcell Street, where a carport and covered pergola offer sheltered space for parking, deliveries or additional use. Mains water is connected.

With its prime main street position, prominent frontage and irreplaceable heritage features, this landmark property presents an exceptional opportunity. Suitable for boutique retail, gallery, food offering or adaptive reuse (STCA), this is a chance to create something truly special in the heart of Clunes.

Historic, original, and full of story — buildings of this calibre rarely come to market, let alone after 140 years.
