101 Commercial Street, Merbein VIC 3505

Large landholding in Commercial 1 Zone | dual-income layout with five-bedroom house above | main street presence in a regional township. The buying case is supported by the property’s zoning and site area, which together permit a wide range of commercial uses while the residential component provides income diversification or owner-occupier accommodation. At 1,214 m², the land is unusually generous for a main street holding, offering potential for rear access or future adaptation. This configuration suits a local business owner seeking combined premises and living space, or an investor wanting two income streams from one site. The dual-use layout is a distinctive advantage in a smaller regional market where such flexibility is limited. The main risk is the unresolved condition and compliance status of both the commercial and residential portions, particularly fire safety and separate metering. Listing data is inconsistent across platforms, so the current tenancy and rental income cannot be relied on from the visible evidence alone. Confidence is reduced until the building’s structural and regulatory condition is verified and the price picture is clarified across the different marketing angles.
