Tonks Cottage Plus Shop

"282 Cuba" is believed to be one of the first Tonks cottages built circa 1870s.

In the 1920's a large, one room shop was added at the street front possibly after a fire.

This heritage property has had many lives including a place of "common" gaming, a laundrette, vintage clothing store and pop-up shop.

In the 70s and 80s the area became the red light district and "282" became a health centre for the Prostitutes Collective and later a youth centre for the Jewish community.

The area is loved for its bohemian and quirky nature and is the home to many cafes, op-shops, boutique fashion stores, art galleries, and music shops.

Youth driven, vibrant and pedestrianised by city dwellers, shoppers and tourists.

282's configuration is:

• 76m2 (more less) cottage
• two good sized bedrooms upstairs
• separate living room and galley kitchen down
• one bathroom

• 36m2 (more or less) shop
• separate wc

An unexpected surprise is the fabulous backyard garden that gets all day sun where you can relax and soak in some Vitamin D.

In such a fantastic location with commercial zoning, this unique property offers endless opportunities for insightful entrepreneurs including an office and abode in the City, or a very cool air bnb all whilst also getting the income from the integrated shop.

The owners had consented plans drawn up by an architect for a new kitchen/dining, bathroom and bedroom storage.

Properties like this are rare. Be quick to make your appointment with Kate Foot the listing agent.

NOTE: The cabin on the rear of the site DOES NOT form part of the sale.
