45-46 Balfour Avenue, Whitehead, BT38

Description

A fantastic once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a part of old Victorian Whitehead. Known as “Dowthers Yard & Lane” consisting of house, brick-built workshop unit, office block, various outbuildings, 5 garages and an extensive concrete yard. Formerly a builders yard and office block dating back to the 1800s, this property has many commercial uses or could be very easily converted back to a fabulous private dwelling home with multi-purpose usage for its adjoining outbuildings and yard. Early internal inspection is therefore advised as we expect considerable interest in this unique property.
