129 Commercial Road, Yarram VIC 3971

We are searching for an entrepreneurial type to revive this business. The three-bedroom attached home provides the backdrop for your imagination. Set along the wide, welcoming stretch of Commercial Road, 129 stands as a quiet reminder of Yarram's early 20th-century Victorian era. The building has so much character, being built circa 1904, and with some cosmetic renovation would be a testament to when buildings were built to last. The home and shop were built during a period when the town was finding its rhythm, serving surrounding farms, timber workers, and a growing local community. You can still feel that sense of purpose in the bones of the place: solid, enduring, and thoughtfully positioned on its generous 1005m² allotment of beautifully maintained gardens and mature trees. The original building is proclaimed as being the first building to use bricks in the town. It was originally a bootmaker's business; then history has it that it has also been a printing business for the local newspaper, along with a news agency. In more recent times, it has opened its doors to an antique venture. What is its future? From the street, there's an immediate warmth; this is a home that has lived many lives. Originally a residence, it later evolved to include a charming adjoining space that once operated as an antique store. It's easy to imagine the front rooms filled with curiosities and conversation, locals dropping by to browse or share stories. That separate yet connected area now offers flexibility, whether as a studio, a workspace, or a nod to its past life, ready to be reimagined again. Inside, the home unfolds with a comforting simplicity. Three bedrooms provide space for family or guests, while the central living areas reflect the easy, practical layout of its era. The single bathroom serves the home efficiently, and throughout, there's a sense of authenticity that invites you to lean into its history rather than replace it. Why would you, when the floorboards throughout are Baltic pine, high Victorian ceilings and there are five fireplaces! Comfortable living now and future opportunity to restore to former glory. Out back, the property opens up. The large shed hints at years of storage, tinkering, and perhaps even small-scale trade, while the expansive yard offers room to grow, garden, or simply enjoy the space that's increasingly rare in town settings. In addition to the original large, spacious shed on the north side of the backyard, there was a further shed added in 2019. This shed, which replaced the original horse stables, measures 9M in length X 4.5M wide and abuts the rear laneway, providing excellent access. However, the beauty of this building is the mezzanine floor on three sides, which effectively doubles its capability. This shed could be further enhanced to be a self-contained living area with the addition of a kitchenette and bathroom. There's a quiet freedom here, where the land feels just as important as the house itself. Homes like this aren't just structures; they're chapters. From its early days over a century ago to its time as a local antique shop to what it might become next. 129 Commercial Road carries its history lightly but meaningfully. For those drawn to character, possibility, and a tangible connection to Yarram's past, it offers something genuinely special. Are you the one/ones to bring this home back to life?
