Scotland Road, Penrith

This former Kingdom Hall was converted around 1990 into 2 spacious apartments. More recently, the ground floor apartment has fallen into disrepair and is currently unhabitable, creating an opportunity for an investor/landlord to buy the building and carry out the necessary repairs and upgrades, giving 2 roomy units ideal for the rental market, or even to create a large home over 2 floors with well over 1100 sq ft of living space and potentially with a small back yard.
