The partner of a Walcha grazier found dead inside his homestead three months ago will face Tamworth Local Court on Sunday over his murder.
Natasha Crossman, 42, was arrested in Walcha, on the state's northern tablelands, on Saturday morning.
Homicide detectives had been investigating the suspicious death of her partner Mathew Dunbar, also 42, after he was found dead on his property early on August 2.
After about 12 hours of questioning, Crossman was charged with murder and refused bail.
Ms Crossman allegedly told friends she found her partner dead after he had taken his own life.
However, police have been treating the death as suspicious and attended the property "Pandora" on Saturday.
Ms Crossman had remained living at the property following the death of her partner of two years.
