Emergency services arrived at Adams St in Ashmont, near Wagga Wagga, about 5pm on Thursday, after following up a concern for a welfare call.
A 52-year-old man was found inside the home suffering serious injuries. He died at the scene, police said.
The 49-year-old man was later found a short distance from the home suffering head injuries.
He was taken to Wagga Wagga Base Hospital under police guard.
Police established a crime scene at the home and Strike Force Bulba was launched with homicide detectives and Riverina Police to investigate the man's death.
On Saturday, the 49-year-old was released from hospital and taken to Wagga Wagga Police Station.
He was charged with murder and refused bail.
He is due in Wagga Wagga Bail Court on Sunday.
