Nestled in the heart of picturesque Mirboo North, 60 Ridgway, is a prominent property with excellent street exposure and commanding presence. The striking façade and detailed architectural features set the tone for a beautiful and functional building, set upon a sprawling 758m2 allotment.
Established circa 1907 as the 'Colonial Bank of Australasia' this iconic building was originally designed as a Bank Chambers with residential quarters attached for the bank manager.
The charms of the yesteryear will take your breath away as you step inside, 12ft pressed metal ceilings give a sense of grandeur and space, whilst period features such as leadlight, deep skirting boards, ornate fireplaces and picture rails supply character-filled ambience throughout. Standing proud, the 'strongroom' (vault) built with 18-inch-thick walls and a solid steel door is arguably the most distinctive feature.
Exuding warmth and homeliness, five commodious rooms offer a flexible floorplan to meet your business and accommodation needs, along with a spacious kitchen with original wood stove, electric oven and two gas stove tops, bathroom, laundry and separate toilet.
Whether you dream of opening an art gallery, intimate restaurant, retail shop or wine bar, someone with a creative imagination will be able to bring this prestigious property back to life and make it the town's central focus once again (STCA).
Set on a deep block, with rear lane access off Burchell Lane, a protected patio, courtyard, established gardens, raised vege patches, chicken coop and a variety of shedding complete this unique property.
