INSPECTIONS START - 27th August, 2022 "You're not local if you don't know this building!" This is one of the iconic properties in the valley, the Macleay Valley and particularly in the Lower Macleay Valley. Located opposite the Smithtown boat ramp, on the corner of Main Street, Fitzgerald Avenue as you round the bend for the pub, yes, that big grand two story timber home, that one! That one we've always wondered about, the one we've always wanted to go in and wondered what its history of. The land was first selected in 1868, the building came in 1902 and has since served as a home, a General Store, Cash Emporium, Fish and Chip shop, Boarding House and some think a haunted house because it was all boarded up for years - but no it's not haunted it's amazing, oh to sit on those big wrap-around verandahs for dinner and drinks would be amazing. This majestic, big, hardwood building could become once again a glistening jewel. A happening hive of people whether coming and going from a type of store or from coming and going as temporary or permanent accommodation guests. The home is that big and the space in the block is that big that the options are many as to what you could do with this magic, big building. Live it, rent, run a business from it or do all of it. The structure is as sound and straight as can be - the roof and all the piers and footings were renewed in the last 20 years and the massive timbers in the frame are bigger anything you'll see today. The magic big building just needs the make-up and fit-out however you want it to look like - or don't do much and love it like the previous owner has done for 30 or so past years. - 682sqm corner block. - Iconic two story massive timber home. - Amazing verandahs & river views. - 5 bedrooms (4 up, 1 down) - 1 bathroom (downstairs) - Grand stair case. - Large lounge room/shop area (downstairs). - Kitchen/dining (down stairs). - Study or cloak room (downstairs). - Double carport. - Single garage. - Zoned RU5 Village - ''the most flexible zoning there is".
