Restore, renovate or redevelop (STCA) a piece of Footscray's history... Whatever your intention is, this property is a rarity and its flexibility offers a plethora of opportunity for one lucky purchaser.

This late Victorian, Cobb & Co lodge, circa 1897 was once part of the colourful history of the Victoria Hotel; providing short-term stays for those on their way to early bush settlements and the goldfields.

Original open-hearth fireplaces with ornate mantles are scattered throughout the home. Original timber floors guide you through the sweeping hallway and under the decorative, feature archway.
