Waratah 39 Platt Street
Double Corner Block for Renovation or Development
Originally thought to operate as a grocery wholesale business, this building with a traditional corner store façade has had a rich history including as a repair center for whitegoods and the registered offices to a group of small business owners. Of weatherboard and clad construction with high windows providing privacy and natural light, it's currently configured as a series of individual offices with a large strongroom at the rear and a Colourbond shed and awning outdoors. Resting on a corner double block on a combined 632sqm, it has R2 Low Density Residential zoning with NCC approval to operate as commercial premises. Offering ultimate work from home flexibility, it's essentially a blank canvas for the sophisticated buyer to combine warehouse aesthetics with designer style. Alternatively explore the development options to subdivide or build multiple dwellings (STCA) in a prime location surrounded by shopping, eateries and transport as well as offering quick access to the region's major hospitals and education facilities.
