The lettable area is 159sqm and consists of a kitchen, lounge area and large open space. Common toilets available on the ground floor.
This space can take your breath away with it's wide jarrah floor boards and soaring high ceilings.
Being adjacent to a residence space we're not able to consider all types of businesses. We believe that this tenancy would be idea for a yoga studio, general office use or consulting.
If you are to become part of the Padbury's Stores family (as a co-tenant) here is some history.
