Cloaked in history, this special property is one of the original buildings in the beautiful historic village of Bundanoon. Built in 1924 it consists of a large retail shop at the front and a charming four-bedroom weatherboard cottage at the rear. The property offers entry from both the front and rear of the property.
Shop:
An impressive double brick commercial zoned building with concrete floors, high horse hair ceilings, marble fireplace, kitchen, toilet and handbasin, front and back entrance. The retail space can be spilt into two shops with their own entry.
In past history the shop has housed a ladies' and gentlemen's hair salon business along with a billiard parlour, among other businesses. Eventually, in 1949, the space was originally used by the infamous Bundanoon Bicycle shop. Now thirty years on, this striking building is now home to the well-known Bundanoon Botanicals shop.
The Residence:
Highlighting a sunny porch, this beautifully renovated and impeccably presented, charming weatherboard cottage is located separately at the rear of the shop. This stunning cottage perfectly fuses today's cutting-edge style and the heart-warming vintage, charm and character of yesterday.
With high ceilings, some raked, original floorboards, three bright bedrooms in the cottage whilst the fourth bedroom/studio is located under the garages. The well-appointed bathroom is combined with the laundry. The lounge room has a slow combustion fire and is separate to the sitting/TV room. A substantial eat-in kitchen offers lots of cabinetry and features a large open fire inset that comfortably equips a cooker and fridge. The terraced parterre gardens and entertaining areas are superb and easy care. Four car garaging has storage with a large studio/fourth bedroom below.
The property has two entries, one from Osborne Street to the residential garages and one from Railway Avenue to the Bundanoon Botanicals shop. Rarely does a property with so much history, character and impeccable renovation come to market. Ideal for a buyer looking to run a business in an upcoming village in the beautiful Southern Highlands, with a home close by. Great rental opportunity with four different managements possible.
The business, Bundanoon Botanicals, can be purchased privately.
