Situated on a well-connected street with a wide frontage, 17 Herbert Street offers a unique combination of immediate usability, adaptive reuse potential, and long-term investment prospects.

Set within an established mixed-use environment, the property is ideally suited for a variety of owner-occupier, lifestyle, or redevelopment strategies, subject to council approval.

Permissible uses under council approval include attached dwellings, boarding houses, residential flat buildings, centre-based child care facilities, multi-dwelling housing, commercial buildings, neighborhood shops, places of public worship, semi-detached dwellings, respite day care centres, community facilities, and more.

Key property features include a freestanding structure with an adjoining home that offers excellent street presence. There is no heritage easement, facilitating ease of future planning.

A well-appointed and private front courtyard and entertainment space enhance the lifestyle appeal. The property includes bathroom amenities and a kitchenette, making it perfect for an owner-occupier seeking a combined home and workspace.

Conveniently located with access to transport, cafes, and local amenities on the Breakfast Point peninsula, this adaptable property is ideal for accommodating high-value assets such as vehicles or watercraft. It also represents a strategic landholding with future redevelopment potential.
