Oliver Lodge: Storm Damaged Property with a Storied past
With a long history all on its own, Oliver lodge has been variously utilized as a home to the well-known author, Arthur Upfield, a Hippie Commune, Art Gallery, Doctors Surgery and in more recent times a Café with B&B facility. Storm damaged but proudly boasting its period features, this residence is ready for a new chapter to be written into its storied heritage.
The perfect opportunity to restore to a home, operate a café (STCA), or start again and take advantage of the great flat block to build that dream home. The large open block will allow for a substantial build with little risk of over capitalization.
Set on a highly accessible 2,089 sq m (approx.) with 3 entry points, the garden features mature trees along with stone edged pathways and rotunda, all of which underscore the care it once enjoyed, providing a foundation for what it could be again. The reasonably flat block and east-facing direction make it a perfect starting point for future possibilities.
Inside the home features 3 large well-lit living spaces and original hardwood floors, which are complemented by several generous fireplaces which were designed to bring warmth to the setting. On the lower level, you will find a cozy B&B accommodation with separate entry, bathroom and kitchen area. This is the perfect space for a home business or to accommodate extended family.
Oliver Lodge: Storied home for restoration set on 2,089 sq m (approx.) Potential to redevelop or reinvent as business STCA. Access via 3 points of entry being Mt Dandenong Tourist Road, Helen Road and Old Coach Road

Important Information
Fletchers Area Guide Mount Dandenong, VIC 3767
Well-known for its stunning views, Mount Dandenong is Melbourne’s very own suburb on a mountain. Located 35 kilometres away from the CBD, the small township accommodates a small population of just over 1,200 people and thousands upon thousands of tourists each year. The mountain upon which the suburb is located was originally named Mount Corhanwarrabul, although due to spelling and pronunciation difficulties, the name was changed to reflect the entire range of mountains in the area.
