A unique residence and business opportunity has arrived, right in the heart of the new service hub of Trentham with the opening of The Mechanics community centre in High Street, Trentham.
Just up the road this 1980s solid brick home on a most generous commercial block of 1342m2, has good bones and a very practical and functional floorplan to be a spacious home or huge potential to be an inspired new business, such as an art gallery, restaurant and cooking school or whatever you aspire to curate and create. And the L-shaped land offers the opportunity to explore the development of a further dwelling, such as a granny flat STCA.
Soundly built and well maintained, this three-bedroom home, surrounded by established, rock edged garden beds with an eclectic blend of trees and shrubs, also offers a great chance to get into the market, whether it be your first home, looking to downsize or as an investment.
The residence itself offers a wide entrance hall leading into a bright and welcoming combined lounge and dining area with north facing windows. Adjacent is the spacious kitchen with plenty of bench space, overhead cupboards and casual meals area.
All three double bedrooms have built in robes with floor to ceiling hanging space and storage while the third bedroom can double up as the home office or study.
Central bathroom provides flexible space with an open shower and there is a separate toilet adjacent to the large laundry.
The picture is complete with large floor to ceiling windows throughout, woodfire heater, abundant storage, and a large two car tandem carport, workshop and woodshed.
So there is no doubt that with such choice and diversity this property offers so many options for you to explore, so close to the café culture and retails services, all within walking distance. And if you need to commute to Melbourne, there is the fast train to catch at Woodend and only 40 minutes to the domestic and international airport.
This is a typical 1970s–80s suburban brick home with dated interiors rather than an architect-designed property. It has solid bones — timber floors, a large backyard and a functional layout — but no distinctive or historically significant architectural features; its original kitchen and finishes point to renovation potential rather than design pedigree.
