Think outside the box and explore the options presented by this rare vintage shopfront plus two bedroom residence, enviably set between the lifestyle attractions of both Sydney Road and Nicholson Street. Tightly held by the same family for almost 50 years, and once a family owned bespoke cobblers studio, this promising property on a corner allotment currently comprises a spacious shopfront, double bedrooms with robes, one where access to the shopfront can be readily reinstated, and generous living and dining with a neat serviceable kitchen. A further sunroom incorporates laundry facilities while the deep rear garden including additional storage plus carport offering off-street parking promises a potential packed future. Create a unique home featuring a striking fusion of this property’s shopfront heritage with intelligent modern design or take advantage of the original display windows and exceptionally wide nature strip to craft a stunning new café/business (STCA). In a prized lifestyle hotspot near two tram lines, Sydney Road specialty shopping, cafes and restaurants, Merri Creek parklands and bike trails, all a mere 8 km to the CBD, inspect and be inspired.
