225 Herries Street, Newtown QLD 4350

Rarely does an opportunity like this present itself. This Grand Old Lady offers prospective buyers opportunities limited only by their imagination. Some will see the value of restoring the home to its full grandeur, with ornate ceilings and polished floors - potentially a Toowoomba style icon. Others will be drawn to the huge 1,050m2 allotment and the space the back yard provides. Then there's Low Medium Density - Residential Urban Consolidation zoning that allows for at least two units to be constructed at the rear. However, regardless of one's intention, the feature that every astute investor will appreciate is its prime location. Situated on the edge of the CBD, the property is positioned within easy walking distance of the city's many facilities - Grand Central Shopping Centre, the new $40 million city library, Milne Bay pool, Glennie and St Mary's schools, the Toowoomba Hospital, beautiful Laurel Bank Park, restaurants, to mention only a few. The unique design of the home and its contribution to the streetscape has already been recognised by the heritage professionals. From its symmetry and geometry to its circular portico and leadlight windows, the Art Deco architectural features make this home truly deserving of its Character Place status. For those searching for a commercial/professional property, the huge 1,050m2 allotment provides generous room for building extension and car parking at the rear.

It is your choice. Create the perfect inner city lifestyle or establish a striking commercial enterprise. For the discerning buyer exceptional opportunities exist in this property.
