a prime CBD location and one of the few original commercial buildings remaining in Drouin, this historical holding is a unique propositio­n for the buyer seeking office accommodat­ion or for the investor. Dating back to 1916, the former State Savings Bank has retained its period façade on the upper level.

The original manager’s residence, approximat­ely 100m2 on the second floor, also has many of its character features including high ceilings, picture rails, a timber surround fireplace and lovely sash windows overlookin­g the street.

This split level space now accommodat­es two office suites, a third smaller office or storeroom, modern kitchen/ staffroom with laminate cabinetry and an upright electric cooker, a restroom and a utility room. A vanity, toilet and the plumbing to reinstate a shower and/ or a bath are found in the restroom. The larger of the offices is currently used as a boardroom and includes the fireplace, this room and the second office feature the sash windows with leadlight detail on the upper panes. Access to the offices is via stairs from the main street plus a second set of stairs and an elevator from the rear car park. Although zoned Commercial 1, the floor area could also be easily converted to residentia­l accommodat­ion, creating a unique living space with all of the town’s convenienc­es right at your front door. Central heating and cooling, quality floor coverings, including carpets in the offices and a fresh modern colour palette of neutral tones are further features.

History, character and a prime location, this is an opportunit­y not to be overlooked.
