"Here is your opportunity to own one of Goulburn's oldest and most iconic homes," says local agent Tom Antony.
This two storey stone building was built by convicts, circa 1840.
Known as Grafton House, this property has previously served as a saddlery and as an inn, and it remains an important part of Goulburn's colonial history.
Since 1988 the property has been a private residential dwelling.
A descriptive plaque was erected on the front of the house as part of the bicentennial project.
"This lovely stone building has stood the test of time and is positioned right in the heart of the city with an easy walk to the CBD area, local schools, parks and tennis courts," commented Mr Antony.
"The property has been tastefully renovated to maintain as many original features as possible, yet it still accommodates modern living," he added.

Some of the many features of this property include four carpeted bedrooms, two of which are located upstairs.
"There are two slow combustion wood fires with ornate mantle pieces for that warm cosy feeling and ambience," Mr Antony remarked.
The kitchen and bathroom have both been upgraded as part of those renovations, plus the property has been freshly painted.
It also "has beautiful polished timber flooring throughout the main living areas," plus "The covered outdoor barbeque area is perfect for entertaining, overlooking established, fully landscaped and low-maintenance gardens," he observed.
"It is not too often that the opportunity to own a piece of history like this presents itself, so book your inspection today," encouraged Mr Antony.
