A transformation like no other in the busy CBD of Bathurst, is this stunning adaptive reuse which breathes new life into a building, originally built as a multi storey Cool Room for the new Vegetable Market, as they were moved from King's Parade in circa 1904. The construction methods used at the time are thought to be quite sophisticated in order to achieve the required building thermal performance for its use. The precinct was also the home of Bathurst's first Hospital, Walkers Brewery & the original Bathurst Baths, which has also recently been redeveloped, retaining 6 metre high walls from the original building from a generally similar era. From the 1960's the larger site was occupied by Dairy Farmers & remains known by many locals as "The Dairy Farmer Site".
2016 saw redevelopment works commence & over a 2 year period, a new life was given to the near disused building & the modern workspace which has arisen, can only be described as amazing - fluently integrating modern building design & products with a restoration remaining true to the buildings origins whilst delivering an eclectic professional office suite & studio, crossing the bridge from an Historic era with ease & to become the new home of the significant & well known Architectural Firm, Integrated Design Group.
Providing modern office spaces, studio, office nooks, Board Rooms & large shared spaces over 3 floors, perfectly integrated to highlight & enjoy the high ceilings & voids, magnificent timbers & original " building use" features & all modern amenities. Air conditioning, gas heating compliment the incorporation of operational skylights which naturally help cool & heat the building, often without any mechanical assistance. History meets modern architectural flair & execution to provide for a truly unique & unrivalled opportunity to own, a piece of Bathurst History & its future as the property transcends to the needs of a demanding modern workspace environment.
The building must be inspected to be fully appreciated!
