Description
Options are plentiful here, as the vendor has decided it's time to retire after thirty happy and productive years at "Picture This". During that time, countless pieces of art have been beautifully framed - but now, a whole new chapter awaits the next owner. This charming villa, built in 1910, sits proudly on 243 m² of flat, freehold land. The house itself contains an area of 90 m², plus the rear elevation lean-to addition of 46 m². Perfectly positioned just behind the Jackson Street shops, the property enjoys an excellent location with current Commercial/Office zoning.
Options and Possibilities:
- Develop: Demolish or relocate the current villa and build new offices and/or apartments
- Restore: Remove the rear workshop for parking and renovate the villa for professional offices (e.g., architect, lawyer)
- Relet: Rent the entire property to one or multiple tenants
- Occupy: Run your own business from the workshop and rent out the four existing offices in the villa
This villa is currently used as four commercial offices, a waiting room, and a picture-framing workshop.
There is also a kitchenette, a separate shower, and a separate toilet.
The property also includes two car parks at the front, with access down the side of the house leading to what was once a garage, now transformed into a practical workshop.
Surrounded by cafes, speciality shops and restaurants, the property is located just a stone's throw from vibrant Jackson Street.
Tender closing 12:00 pm, Thursday, 26 March.
Just call Lyndsey for an appointment at (027) 373 7030 or see you at the Open Homes.
