Burgess Rawson’s David Napoleone, in conjunction with Gagliardi Scott’s Rocky Gagliardi, have been appointed to sell the former Uniting Church property at 152 & 160 Maude Street, Shepparton.

The significant property, consisting of two titles and a total landholding of 1,827 square metres, offers a unique opportunity for repurposing within Shepparton’s bustling CBD.

The site features two historically significant buildings, both constructed circa 1908. These include an impressive church building with a floor area of 381 square metres and a church hall/Sunday school covering 187 square metres, combining for a total of 568 square metres.

The property is zoned Activity Centre Zone 1 (ACZ1), allowing for a wide range of potential uses, including retail, hospitality, office space, childcare, mixed-use developments, community centres, or places of worship (STCA).

Mr Napoleone said the property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile asset in the heart of Shepparton’s CBD.

Mr Gagliardi said the historical significance, combined with modern upgrades and zoning that allows for a wide range of uses, makes it an exceptional investment with immense potential for repurposing.

According to the agents, a permit has been approved for building extensions and the use of the site as a “Function Centre 9b,’ which would include a steakhouse plus a whisky and gin bar by 2024.

Situated in a prime location, the property boasts immediate access to major arterial roads such as Wyndham Street and Midland Highway and is just 750 metres from the Shepparton Railway Station.

Shepparton itself is a thriving regional city, serving as the commercial hub of the Greater Shepparton City Council, with a trade catchment of over 160,000 people.

The property is being offered with vacant possession and can be purchased individually or in one line. Expressions of Interest close on Wednesday, 25th September 2024, at 3 pm AEST, unless sold prior.
