136 Saint Hill Street, Whanganui City, Whanganui

Heritage House, an historic gem

Presenting a unique opportunity to acquire one of Whanganui's most exquisite Edwardian heritage buildings, meticulously restored over an eight-year period. Heritage House, located at 136 Saint Hill Street offers a blend of historic charm and modern functionality.

This iconic property features eight fully leased office tenancies, accommodating three local businesses. The ornate ballroom and beautiful gardens serve as a sought-after venue for weddings, events, and conferences. The Summer House in the gardens hosts intimate functions, and two luxurious high-end Airbnb apartments upstairs provide additional revenue streams. A private first-floor owner's apartment provides a rare opportunity to reside in a building celebrated for its heritage and character, offering the perfect blend of living and earning potential.

From the moment you step into the grand entrance lobby, you are greeted by high decorative ceilings, chandeliers, ornate fireplaces, a grand kauri staircase, and extensive native timber doors and panelling. Floors have been resurfaced, and the building has been replumbed, rewired, and optimised for modern use while preserving its historic integrity. With a commercial kitchen and bar also available, this offers further options for creating an income.

The property benefits from its fantastic location in the city centre. It is close to all the main amenities and being in a heritage precinct means that visitors are attracted to the other nearby historic buildings and institutions such as the Whanganui Regional Museum, Alexander Heritage and Research Library, and the internationally renowned Sarjeant Gallery. This is a rare opportunity to own something with this kind of standing in the city centre.
