A CHANGE OF LIFESTYLE BECKONS – CHARMING SHOP FRONT AND RESIDENCE ON 3,000m2 This really is one out of the box, positioned in the heart of Eddington, it oozes, history, character and charm; there’s plenty of shedding and space and you’re only 100m to the streamside reserve on the Loddon River what a lifestyle!! The shopfront was the original building in Eddington, used to supply goods to different transports travelling to and from the goldfields in the latter 1800’s. There have been several additions over the years, all many years ago and all is in great condition throughout. The older building are all double brick with plenty of character, leadlight windows or sash windows, high ceilings and other marks of history. The large shopfront has plenty of room, it could be a large living area, office or something else, there’s a large cellar and some really nice original features. There’s a second store room (or living space) with cabinetry some of it quite unique.
