Ideal in its current form as an office, or convert back to a spacious family home, this character 1920's building offers flexibility of use and a very central location. With harbour views straight down Collie Street, and overlooking the CBD, everything is within easy walking distance. The large 966m2 block offers plenty of space, parking and potential for subdivision down the track.
Elevated from the road and with an elegant facade, this is a proud building constructed in Albany brick. The entry is welcoming and impressive - a solid timber door with leadlight surround opens up to a wide central hallway with high ceilings, deep coves, picture rails and a ceiling rose. There is currently a panel that separates the front and rear tenancies, but that is easily removed if desired.
The front two rooms either side of the hallway are spacious and retain heritage features such as high skirtings and fireplaces. To the enclosed side of the verandah is a toilet and kitchenette.
The rear tenancy is larger, with two rooms of similar size to the front, plus a very large meeting room with store - again, with the heritage trademarks you would expect. There is also a large reception, a kitchen area, entry foyer and bathroom. Access is from the back through the undercover parking area.
In terms of returning the property to a house, you effectively have 4 bedrooms, a large lounge, spacious kitchen / meals area plus bathroom. Of course, the flexibility is there to configure the property to suit your own wishes.
