Historic John Monash Windsor post office conversion listed

A historic Windsor post office conversion has been listed for sale in Victoria.

The 2/153 Albert Street property has been listed with $1.8 million hopes through Emma Bloom at Kay & Burton.

The 1900s property was engineered by Sir John Monash. 

The two-storey warehouse conversion, with eight metre high ceilings, has Monash's signature exposed metal trusses.

With original Jarrah floorboards and sky-high metal French doors opening to the streetscape where mail and money was winched up into the safety of vaults.

The kitchen has benchtops made from the original roof timber.

The two bedroom, two bathroom apartment has a terrace with an outdoor shower with plenty of natural light.

It last traded six years ago when Uschi Schwartz, a fashion designer saw the potential of the then photographic studio.

The property, close to Chapel Street's cafes, St Kilda Beach, is scheduled for September 12 auction.
