This striking circa-1910 character building offers approximately 650 m2 of floor space across three levels, including a vast attic brimming with potential. The ground floor is dedicated to a retail shop, ideally positioned with strong street appeal on the edge of the town’s retail sector. This provides a reliable income stream while anchoring the property in a prime commercial location. The entire upper level is configured as the owners’ apartment, well advanced in its transformation into a stunning New York–style residence. A spacious open-plan living area makes clever use of original character features, complemented by a modern kitchen, bathroom, and dedicated laundry opening onto a full-length rear deck. The apartment includes a large master bedroom and two additional bedrooms, offering space and comfort on a grand scale. Above, a vast attic with natural light provides further development potential – perfect for additional living, studio or creative workspace. Additional improvements include a utility shed with attached carport, a toilet complex that previously served the property under a different use, and generous off-street parking. Currently run as a home and income, this landmark building offers buyers a rare combination of lifestyle, scale and return. Whether held as an investment, occupied personally or developed further, this is an opportunity not to be missed. Please note this property is for sale as vacant possession.
