The property provides a blank canvas for buyers to build their dream home or New York style loft apartment.
A redundant substation is being offered to the market for the first time in generations, giving buyers a blank canvas to transform into their dream studio.
The 177 sqm property at 39 Maubeuge St in Granville currently exists as a double-brick walled structure with a reinforced concrete floor and pitched tile roof.

The property has no kitchen, no bathroom and two very small windows, with electricity being provided by a pad-mounted transformer box out the front of the property.
The substation was previously owned by Endeavour Energy who instructed LJ Hooker agent David Matkovic to sell the property – on the condition that the transformer box stay on the land.
Buyer feedback and current market conditions indicate the price guide for the property is around the $320,000 mark.
According to Mr Matkovic, the property has been attracting a lot of interest from buyers looking to turn it into a home, use it as a studio flat, or turn it into a garage.

“This is the true definition of a blank canvas property; the site can be used for storage purposes or be converted into a unique modern industrial New York style residence,” Mr Matkovic said.
“We’ve primarily had interest from investors, small business owners and tradespeople. The property is Zoned 2 Low Density Residential, but has never been a residence.
“The property became a surplus to the needs of Endeavour Energy, the pad-mount substation is now registered as an easement and will remain on site.”
