“Rosemary” described as a Gentleman’s residence when first built in 1924 by local craftsman A. Robinson for the Black family. One of only 3 houses in Clarence Street at that time. Today the position at 2 Clarence Street is immediate and very accessible to all the facilities that the appealing town of Maclean can provide.
Throughout the 20th century “Rosemary” provided a place to call home for a number of residents and at one period was converted into three flats. In 1982 the Allen’s and their extended family purchased the property and began extensive restoration to near original condition, including sympathetic additions, such as the very appealing outdoor covered entertaining area, rumpus room and paved barbecue area.
The year is 1993 and the present owners and their large family embrace “Rosemary” as their new home and the cherished lifestyle that the Maclean township, community and district can offer. Bringing to life the rich Tallowwood floors, reinstating the heritage colours, and additional upgrades with the new kitchen, bathroom and new double garage, along with the modern comforts of solar hot water, air conditioning in the living room and ceiling insulation, ensured life at “Rosemary” has been a delight.
Retirement, downsizing and a grown up family means “Rosemary” now awaits a new chapter in her life.
