Ultimate ‘man cave’ sold within three days
Blokes who have their eye on this warehouse that has been converted into the ultimate ‘mantuary’ are all out of luck.
The Mawson Lakes property at 3/32-34 Hudson Rd – which has been converted into a gym, bar and makeshift car workshop – went under contract within three days of hitting the market.
Raine & Horne Salisbury principal Andrew Harvey, who handled the deal, wouldn’t reveal the warehouse’s sale price but says the offer was “very close to the asking price” of $369,000.
He says the 176sqm space attracted a lot of interest during its short stint on the market, particularly for its decked-out interior.
“It sold in three days, a gentleman with the same thought process purchased it,” he says.

“There was some good interest.
“We showed three lots of people through and I’ve had a couple of emails since.”
The warehouse is the crown jewel in a string of 10 on Hudson Rd.
The seller used it to establish his own gym and fitted it out with bathroom facilities, an upstairs office, a 3 tonne car hoist, bar, CCTV and plenty of storage.
“It was certainly a nice place for him to spend time and work out, have friends over and store his prized possessions,” Harvey says.

“Rather than clog the house up with that sort of thing, it was good for him to have a separate place to go.”
The warehouse is still listed on the market because the deal inked is subject to finance.
It comes after another warehouse turned luxury man cave at the heart of Adelaide changed hands four days after hitting the market in April.
