Overview

A Landmark Home with Endless Potential!

Steeped in history and rich in character, 9-11 Railway Reserve offers a rare chance to own a significant piece of Queenstown's heritage. Originally serving as the office spaces for the renowned Mt Lyell Mine, this unique property has been revitalized into a spacious residence and gallery, ideal for artists, creatives, or those seeking a distinctive home beyond the conventional.

Upon entering, a wide central hallway welcomes you, featuring striking pressed tin ceilings that extend throughout much of the home, adding timeless charm. The main residence includes four bedrooms with a flexible layout, where one room connects to another and provides access to a sunroom.

The living room is separate, offering a cozy retreat equipped with a reverse cycle air conditioner for comfort throughout the year. The original kitchen has been stripped back, presenting a blank canvas for customization to suit personal tastes and needs.

The bathroom maintains its original character, fitted with a shower over bath and vanity, blending practicality with charm. The renovated laundry is accessible through a small storage area with built-in shelving. Flooring throughout the home is a mix of new and original carpets alongside beautiful timber floorboards, enhancing the warmth and personality of the space.

Significant groundwork has been completed, including restumping, rewiring, replumbing, and a new roof, providing a solid foundation for further enhancements. While retaining its original character, the home is not a modern build but offers great potential for personalization over time.

A standout feature is the expansive gallery space, perfect for showcasing artwork, hosting exhibitions, or serving as a large studio. This area is also fitted with its own reverse cycle air conditioner and a decorative marble fireplace, creating an inspiring environment.

Adjacent to the gallery is a fully renovated self-contained unit featuring a single bedroom, kitchen with electric cooking, open-plan living and dining area, and a bathroom with shower over bath. This versatile addition can be accessed internally via the gallery or externally from the connecting deck, making it suitable for guest accommodation, rental income, or dual living arrangements.

Outside, the property includes various sheds, a single car lock-up garage, and a front verandah, providing a relaxing spot to enjoy the charm of Queenstown's main street. Located centrally, the property offers convenience while embracing the unique lifestyle of the West Coast.

Set on approximately 1661 square meters, this property combines history, creativity, and opportunity in a distinctive package. Queenstown is a unique town surrounded by rugged mountain ranges and rich mining heritage, offering a strong community, stunning natural landscapes, and a lifestyle that balances tranquility with adventure. Whether exploring walking trails, enjoying changing scenery, or joining a welcoming community, this location offers a place to truly make your mark.
