The layout includes multiple enclosed rooms, a foyer, a generous open-plan area, bathroom facilities and a full kitchen equipped with dishwasher, oven and pantry. High ceilings, timber features and the character of the original building provide a point of difference from a conventional commercial premises, while the practical floor plan allows the building to be adapted to a variety of professional or service-based uses, subject to planning and relevant approvals. Potential options may include residentia house, professional offices, consulting rooms, health-related services, beauty and personal services, creative businesses and other compatible commercial uses. A substantial storage area beneath the Queenslander provides additional space for equipment, stock, archives or general business storage. Flexible Live-Work Configuration One of the property's most distinctive features is the existing combination of a character Queenslander and separate commercial building on the same site. Subject to the relevant planning and building approvals, the configuration provides potential for an owner-occupier to combine accommodation and business operations within the one property, or for the buildings to be utilised for commercial purposes. The separation of the two buildings also creates flexibility to operate different businesses, departments or functions independently, or to lease the buildings separately. Purchasers should make their own enquiries with Tablelands Regional Council regarding permitted uses and any approvals required for their intended use. The Studio / Office Building The separate studio-style building provides an additional versatile commercial space with an open-plan layout, polished concrete flooring and air-conditioning. The building provides an ideal complementary space to the Queenslander and could suit a variety of applications, subject to planning requirements, including: • Professional or creative studio • Fitness or wellness studio • Showroom • Retail or display space • Office/workspace • Consulting or service-based business • Storage or ancillary commercial use Its independent configuration provides an opportunity for the building to operate separately from the Queenslander or as part of a larger business operation. Parking, Access & Convenience The availability of on-site parking provides practical benefits for businesses with staff, customers and clients and adds flexibility compared with many centrally located commercial properties while further off street parking spaces are located directly in front of the premises. Outdoor accessible toilet facilities provide additional practicality for businesses servicing members of the public. Commercial & Investment Potential With two separate buildings on a single CBD site, 32 Mabel Street offers purchasers the flexibility to structure the property around their own requirements. An owner-occupier can utilise one or both buildings for their business, while an investor may consider leasing the buildings individually or together, subject to market demand and the relevant tenancy arrangements. The current vacancy also provides a purchaser with the opportunity to determine the future tenancy structure rather than inheriting an existing lease. Indicative leasing opportunities are available for each building, providing flexibility for purchasers seeking an income-producing asset. Location The property is positioned in a highly visible and central section of Atherton, within the established CBD and close to the town's retail, professional, health and service businesses. Its Mabel Street frontage provides strong exposure and a prominent position for business identification and signage. The existing archway provides an excellent opportunity for prominent signage, with potential signage dimensions of approximately 4.6m wide x 780mm high, subject to relevant approvals. The central location provides convenient access to surrounding shops, services and amenities and places the property within an established commercial environment. A Rarely Available Combination 32 Mabel Street presents an unusual combination of: CBD location + substantial landholding + two separate buildings + extensive parking + character Queenslander + commercial workspace + flexible occupation options. Whether purchased for owner occupation, investment, separate tenancy arrangements or a future commercial project, the property provides a flexible platform in one of Atherton's established central business locations.
