This grand old home (the oldest home in the city) was completed in 1894. This home was originally built for Robert Cran who emigrated from Scotland and moved to Bundaberg to set up Millaquin Sugar Refinery. Extensive renovations have been authentically carried out over time and Bronwyn Innes a Local Architect was involved with this signature project.

An authentic extension on the western side of the building served as an Accountancy Practice, providing bitumen car parking for 8 vehicles. There is space for an additional 10 car parks. The home totals 462sqm (*approx.) of prime real estate and the corner position covers 1662 square metres and benefits from significant vehicular exposure. This property is currently a much loved residence and lends itself to being a residence for a sizeable family and or a home based professional or medical business.

The property and location would be perfect for a medical practice or specialist rooms as it is strategically located in the midst of the Bundaberg Medical precinct within close proximity to all of Bundaberg’s major hospital facilities. The Bundaberg Mater Private Hospital across the road on one corner and the Margaret Rose Health Centre on another corner, the Bundaberg General Hospital just one block away and the Friendly Society Private Hospital is approximately 1 kilometre away. The Mary Rose Centre opposite the Property has just been sold (December 2013) for a suggested M$8.3. This in itself shows the strength of this prime location. Also being in Bourbong Street means any services and facilities are just a few minutes away.

As a financial benefit, the current Property carries forward plant and capital taxation depreciation write-offs on the property. This information can be confidentially supplied to any prospective purchasers.

The possibilities of consulting rooms are numerous. Within the current configuration of the Property, there are multiple areas which could be used as consulting or work rooms. Anywhere from 5 to 6 to 7 to 8 spaces could be easily refurbished and utilised.
