Landmark Victorian riverfront home and income

An exceptional property available for the first time in almost two decades, 25 Somme Parade stands proud as a rare surviving example of a two story Villa on a prime riverfront section of 793sqm. Built in the early 1900's this freestanding home showcases the grand proportions and refined craftsmanship of it's architectural pedigree, with the large floor to ceiling sash windows serving as an elegant reminder of a bygone era. Capturing expansive views of the riverfront and towards the mountains, currently configured as a three bedroom, two bathroom apartment and a multiple dining option restaurant downstairs. This picturesque local landmark is ready for a new style chapter. It is perfectly comfortable 'as is' or there is scope to transform this elegant property into a luxurious, contemporary residence or as a high profile business with living above - just imagine the possibilities! Auction onsite at 6pm on Thursday November the 18th 2021. Property ID: #WGU5239
