A rare and unique opportunity awaits with this stunning property! Available for the first time in 25 years, it was built in 1946 as a bakery and has held many uses over the years, including a military supply depot. For all of them, the upstairs has been used as a beautiful 3 bedroom, 1 bath residence with spectacular city views from the sun room situated atop historic Cushnoc Heights. An open concept kitchen/living/dining area is perfect for all your hosting and entertainment needs. Original, restored hardwood floors and architectural attributes throughout. On the first floor, dream of how you'll utilize the 7-bay garage level, all with direct entry to the first floor. An office, a conference room, an assembly hall w/ stage, a gigantic great room, and a hot tub room are just some of the amenities ready for your use. Whether you desire to showcase your personal car collection, create an art/photography studio, workshop, or just live lavishly, the possibilities are tremendous. There's potential for rental income as well - whether it be for storage of boats, RVs, snowmobiles, etc. - or a build-out of more residential space. Additionally, there's an extremely private, spacious back yard to round off the versatile uses. Or, design your own personal rooftop terrace! While located in a residential zone, some home occupations may be allowed; check w/ City for proposed uses. You must see this property to fully comprehend all that exists!
