A historic Category 2 building at 26 Ross Place in Lawrence has been transformed from a café into a stylish, modern home.
Built in the late 1800s, the property has a rich history as a cabinetmaker's shop and hairdresser. The current owner preserved the historic façade, as required by Heritage NZ, while creating an industrial-style residence inside. It features a commercial kitchen, polished concrete floors, and stained-glass windows, offering a unique live/work opportunity for its next owner.
