Own a Victoria Avenue original
Some properties simply have presence - and Victoria Court is one of them.
Positioned prominently in the heart of Whanganui's CBD, this substantial heritage property offers a compelling combination of character, scale, income and future potential.
Originally built circa 1919, the property comprises approximately 1,084sqm of building area across a 1,012sqm (more or less) freehold site, with a diverse mix of commercial occupiers. The building retains an abundance of character, complemented by a striking central courtyard beneath a glass roof that gives the property a distinctive point of difference.
Adding further appeal is the property's unique configuration, with access connecting Victoria Avenue through to Watt Street provides a level of connectivity and exposure rarely found in a central-city asset.
With multiple tenancies already in place, this is an opportunity to secure a substantial CBD holding while retaining plenty of scope to shape its future.
Whether you're an investor seeking a character-rich commercial asset, an owner-occupier looking for scale and profile, or a buyer with an eye for repositioning and adding value, Victoria Court deserves your attention.
The vendors are motivated to see this property sold.
