Former Commercial Bank & Manager's Residence | 64 High Street, Oatlands

Occupying a prominent position in the heart of historic Oatlands, this heritage-listed former Commercial Bank and Manager's Residence, built in 1926, is a fine example of early twentieth-century architecture, thoughtfully restored for contemporary living.

Having served as a bank until the mid-twentieth century, the building subsequently accommodated a variety of businesses before becoming a private residence in 2003. Its history remains evident throughout, particularly in the former Banking Chamber, where beautifully detailed timber flooring acknowledges the building's original purpose.

Over the past five years, the current owners have undertaken an extensive and carefully considered restoration, addressing both the visible craftsmanship and essential structural elements. Works include renewed subfloor drainage and ventilation, new piers, reconstructed Blackwood flooring, updated electrical and plumbing systems, roofing improvements and the meticulous restoration of original timber windows, doors, Huon Pine skirtings and architraves. A comprehensive illustrated record of the restoration accompanies the property.

The residence offers three bedrooms, generous living spaces and a beautifully appointed country-style kitchen, where original timber detailing and a wood-fired cooking stove sit comfortably alongside quality contemporary appliances. A light-filled lounge with north-facing bay window, restored fireplaces and thoughtfully renewed bathroom further complement the home's enduring character.

Outside, sandstone pathways lead through established garden areas to a private rear courtyard and a restored freestanding studio, offering flexible space for work, recreation or entertaining.

Positioned within Oatlands' historic town centre, the property enjoys convenient access to local amenities while retaining a welcome sense of privacy. Its General Business zoning also presents opportunities for alternative uses, subject to relevant approvals.

A property of considerable character and provenance, 64 High Street represents a rare opportunity to become custodian of an important part of Oatlands' architectural and commercial history.
