Once owned by John Wren, at one time Australia's richest man, this unique property has quite a history.

In 1892 Wren established an illegal betting shop behind a tobacconist's shop at 146 - 148 Johnston St, Collingwood. The shop provided entry to a spacious wood yard at the rear, which was heavily fortified preventing easy access by the authorities. The Collingwood tote made Wren a rich man and also gave him political influence in the inner suburbs.

This property has now been completely redeveloped with a new second story addition, yet the front of the property was left nearly completely original with most features still in tact. With the original 3.6m meter pressed ceiling being retained in the front, the new ground floor has polished concrete floors and 3.0m ceiling heights. A new open flight staircase leads you to the carpeted open plan second level, flooded in natural light. A sliding door then takes you out onto a new Spotted Gum deck with views over Collingwood.

As one of the first newly developed properties available in the fast developing stretch of Johnston St, suiting a variety of different uses, an inspection is highly recommended
