Formerly home to a local police station, 1082 Nepean Highway, Highett offered an incredibly rare and character-filled opportunity that captured the imagination of buyers far and wide. With its distinctive structure, including original features such as a jail cell, this property stood out as a true one-of-a-kind gem in the bayside market.
Ideal for renovators, developers, or savvy investors, the property provided enormous potential. The successful buyers, Jess and her partner, were drawn to its unique charm and have exciting plans to transform the space into a personal residence, with future potential as a rental. Their journey will undoubtedly bring new life to a building rich in history—and we’re all eager to see how they make use of the old jail cell in its next chapter!
Achieving a strong sale result of $1.115 million, this property demonstrated the continued demand for distinctive real estate in Highett.
