Entering from the carport you walk into a large studio with inbuilt bookcase and slate floor. A few steps up into the kitchen and adjoining lounge/dining area you will find an open fireplace an original wood stove together with gas hotplates and oven.

Up a tight timber staircase there are the 3 charming and unique bedrooms. Two open out onto a picturesque covered balcony with views over the rooftops of the town towards Anzac Hill. The largest room is a converted loft above the studio which was formerly a horse stable. It is fully lined with a timber ceiling and dorma windows and has a quirky entrance via the middle bedroom which contains an open fireplace.

At the front of the property are two adjoining single storey retail/commercial shops. In arguably the best retailing location in Maldon. This section was constructed in 1859 and traded as Upton and Sons Butchers. It remained a butchers shop up until the 1930's and the distinctive butchers rail remains. It is reputed to be the oldest commercial structure the town. Underneath is a large dry cellar and beside this is a huge underground beehive capped Well which could be opened up and used for any purpose by an adventurous purchaser.
