Rarely does an opportunity come up in Coffs Harbour to secure a Heritage style property as, over the years, most have been demolished and replaced by modern constructions. There are very few like this left in our City. This property would either make a terrific home for a purchaser being so conveniently located to the CBD and the Jetty area with its beach and tourist facilities, or equally, it may provide you with a retail store and residence or you could enquire with Coffs Harbour City Council as to whether they would allow you to operate your office based commercial business from here. The site is well located for its existing use with excellent access and easy parking for the visitors to the property. This is an opportunity with potential which should be strongly considered.
