Overview

A Piece of Local History The Aberdare Co-op Store Branch no. 2 (circa 1919)

This property was originally home to the Aberdare branch of the Cessnock and Aberdare Co-operative Society, which opened in 1919 during the golden era of retail co-operatives in the Hunter Valley. The Co-op model, owned and run by its customers, was a thriving part of the communityproviding everything from groceries to clothing, and even funeral services. At its peak, the Cessnock Co-op was a true one-stop shop and a major employer in the region, even operating its own bakery, butcheries, and more. The Aberdare branch stood as one of several successful outlets across the district, serving generations of local families. Today, this building stands as an extraordinarily rare opportunity to own a slice of Aberdare's rich commercial and community historyoffering character, nostalgia, and potential in equal measure. The property is now comprised of the original co-op store offering a large open warehouse space whilst the rear of the property is a resort style three-bedroom residence all situated on a 1011m2 corner block with lane access. North facing, the original Co-op warehouse boasts a generous 16m x 11m floorplan, enhanced by a mezzanine level that offers valuable additional storage space. With full width glass to the street there is plenty of natural light, plus ceiling fans and a log burner will keep the workspace comfortable year-round. Dual access pointsfrom the street and the adjoining side carportenhance the flexibility of this versatile area, making it ideal for a range of uses. The attached 6m x 6m carport offers secure parking with scope to extend and create further vehicle storage for almost the full length of the warehouse. At the rear of the warehouse, a self-contained one-bedroom studio features a kitchenette, laundry, and ensuite, adding even more value and potential to this unique property. Located at the rear of the property, the three-bedroom residence exudes an industrial charm, featuring exposed original beams, soaring ceilings, and high-set louvre windows. Epoxy-coated floors, strip lighting, restored original doors, and sections of exposed internal brickwork create a seamless fusion of heritage character and modern design. The three generously sized bedrooms occupy the original structure, while two stylish bathroomscrafted by renowned local builder Lance Lennardhave been thoughtfully added. These contemporary spaces include heated polished concrete floors, a freestanding bathtub, and floor-to-ceiling tiling, adding a luxurious touch to this unique home. Separating these unique buildings is a Palm Springs inspired garden oasis, centred around an 8m x 4m in-ground pool. The landscaped garden showcases a striking blend of yuccas, cacti, palms, river pebbles, and recycled brick pathways, creating a stylish outdoor retreat. Centrally located, this property is only moments from Cessnock's main street and shopping centres, and just a short 10-minute drive to the acclaimed wineries, restaurants, cafés, and attractions of Pokolbin and Lovedale in the heart of the Hunter Valley.
