This property, a rare gem nestled in the heart of Hall, presents endless opportunities for those seeking an idyllic lifestyle, a sound investment, or the perfect blend of both. Whether you're drawn to the charm of a historic cottage, the potential with a thriving business, or the allure of a spacious corner block, this property has something truly special to offer.
Hall, a historic village with a rich past, was proclaimed in 1882. The house at 33 Victoria St, a testament to timeless architecture, was built circa 1919. Over the decades, the home has undergone a series of sympathetic additions and changes, seamlessly blending the classic style of the early and mid-1900s with the comforts of modern living.
The current owners, who purchased the property in 1987, embarked on a loving restoration of the cottage, breathing new life into its historic walls. They have cherished memories of raising their family in this idyllic setting, where the village lifestyle offers a unique blend of tranquility and community.
Imagine bush walks and rides amidst nature's beauty, encounters with native wildlife, and the vibrant energy of the local showground and sports field. Picture yourself becoming part of the close-knit community, where the spirit of camaraderie thrives and the charm of historic local shops adds a touch of nostalgia.
Positioned on a sprawling corner block of 2,027m2 and enveloped by mature trees and gardens, the cottage exudes classic street appeal. Stepping inside is like taking a journey back in time; the warmth and character of the bygone era are immediately apparent. As you explore further, the different time periods of the home's history and evolution unfold, revealing a tapestry of stories etched into its walls.
In 1996, the owners expanded the property's potential by constructing the existing commercial building which still currently operates as a fully functional Veterinary Practice. This addition, with frontage to Hoskins St, is thoughtfully segregated from the cottage, ensuring privacy and independence.
The Veterinary Practice has been a successful tenant for many years and currently holds a lease with 7.5 years remaining on a 5+5+5 year term. This presents a fantastic opportunity for investors, providing a reliable income stream while you plan for the property's future. Detailed information about rental returns and specific lease arrangements is readily available upon request.
For those seeking a balanced lifestyle, the property offers the flexibility to reside in the charming cottage while enjoying the benefits of a commercial tenant. Alternatively, you could explore the option of leasing out the cottage as well, maximizing your investment potential.
This rare opportunity opens doors to a multitude of possibilities. Contact Mark Johnstone today to embark on your journey towards owning this exceptional property. Alternatively, mark your calendar for our next open exhibition and experience the magic of this unique offering firsthand.
