2/308 Forest Street

Rarely does a property of such scale, character, and versatility become available in the heart of Buninyong. 2/308 Forest Street is not just a home; it is a multi-faceted estate offering a unique 1980s conversion of a 1960s office and warehouse complex. Whether you are looking for a high-yield investment, a premier home-business headquarters, or a creative residential sanctuary, this property offers a footprint and potential that is simply unmatched in the local market. The Main Residence: Mid-Century Character (Building B) The primary 3-bedroom residence (approx. 105sqm) beautifully blends mid-century structural integrity with unique architectural flair. • Architectural Volume: Striking cathedral ceilings and sawtooth roof windows flood the home with natural light. • A Secure History: Features a spacious walk-in pantry that served as a secure vault in its previous life. • Modern Comfort: Recently upgraded with a brand-new heating/cooling system and a new hot water unit. The Multi-Use Annex: Unlimited Potential (Building A) To the rear sits an expansive 220sqm structure-a 50% double-brick, 50% tin facility that is a dream for entrepreneurs or investors. • Configurable Zones: Divided into three separate, climate-controlled zones, all fully insulated (R3.5/R2.5) with four bathrooms and multiple multi-use rooms. • Versatile Past, Limitless Future: Previously utilized as a counselling center and construction office, this space is perfect for professional suites, a creative studio, a high-end workshop, or even an Airbnb conversion. • Secure Storage: Includes a massive 11x4m garage with a remote panel lift door. Infrastructure & Development Upside • Dual Access: Rare double-street frontage with primary driveway access from Forest Street (2-3 parks) and secondary access via Eyre Street with parking for up to 6 additional vehicles. • Subdivision Potential: Set on 729sqm, there is significant potential for subdivision (STCA), allowing a buyer to potentially sell off a portion of the site while retaining a primary asset. • Income Stream: strong potential combined rental return, with a significant portion of the building currently vacant for your immediate personal or professional use. Location: The Heart of the Village Positioned "smack in the middle" of a premium residential area, you are just a short stroll from Buninyong's famous cafes, botanical gardens, and local shops. You get the peace of a residential neighborhood with the infrastructure of a commercial site.
