Own an Icon - Rare Lifestyle with Home Business Opportunity

Description

Footsteps from the heart of Monbulk within the majestic Dandenong Ranges where iconic tourist attractions lie, this landmark near acreage property is rich in history and laden with possibilities including home business scope, with a variety of potential income streams; complete with a beautiful family residence and future potential development opportunity (STCA). One of the few remaining “big blocks” this close to town, there’s even the option to enjoy now and land bank for future generations. The potential really is endless.

This iconic site has a long and distinguished history of retail trade in Monbulk over the last 80 years and has been home to Paddy’s Plants for the last 15 years and a range of retail plant and farm businesses prior including a general store in the early 1900s.
On offer is the family home, expansive land, with creek at the rear, plus extensive infrastructure (not the business) leaving you with the opportunity for a plethora of savvy business ventures including shedding that could be used as a cattery, aviary, nursery or for a family with a home business requiring space for vehicles and tools (STCA). Another option is to live in the house and lease out the land and infrastructure with a fabulous shop front that is well known in the area.

The home itself is set well back from the road, grounded in privacy and affords four bedrooms (master with walk-in robe and ensuite), a stunning open plan living zone warmed by a crackling wood fire and a gleaming kitchen with Smeg 900mm stainless-steel cooker and an Asko dishwasher. Two bedrooms have their own private external access (great for teens or in-laws or one could be utilised as a rumpus) and there’s an enticing wrap-around deck for entertaining or relaxing in the outdoor spa. Beautiful gardens unfold featuring maples and ornamental trees for shade and you’ll never tire of pottering in the sunshine.

At the rear the property disappears into the gully where it meets the Nathania Springs Creek and has been transformed into a haven for wildlife including wallabies and wombats. It has also been set up for wholesale growing with half an acre dedicated to this purpose.

Located in a precinct prized by families for its fine village lifestyle, this is an opportunity to immerse your family in the wonderful Monbulk community. Enjoy an easy amble into town where you will find first-class cafes, restaurants, supermarkets and specialty stores and you are just a short walk to the Aquatic Centre, Sassafras Creek Walk and Monbulk Primary School.
