The Old Bank is on the crossroads of Canberra, Queanbeyan, Goulburn and the South Coast, the doorstep to this thriving regional village, Bungendore.
It's impossible not to notice the historical significance of this property, the home has had many uses - as a bank, blacksmiths, bicycle makers (the first bicycle made in Australia was constructed here), solicitor's, bakery, a stock and station store to name a few, but most recently it has become a charming and elegant country home.
The house offers the calm atmosphere and interest of its historical past but is placed right in the heart of Bungendore. All the mod cons are there, set in and around the sympathetic interior design that is dignified yet cosy and comfortable. Possibly the most obvious juxtaposition is the harmony of the private and protected rear courtyard with all its stories to tell and yet just outside is the new modern world suggesting this home could also be a landmark commercial site with the best exposure in the Bungendore region.
There are many possible uses for this property. It has been the venue for memorable weddings, it would make an ideal B&B, restaurant, gallery with sculpture garden or home office - the opportunities are great... and endless.
The property sits on two separate lots totalling just over an acre which also presents future development options.
A beautiful home with or without tenants and yet. Just 100 metres up the road sits Bungendore's popular and most successful B&B, The Stonehouse - proving the commercial opportunities are waiting to be realised.
