The Historic Bushells Building - Two Residences, Endless Potential
Rich in history and undeniable charm, 89 Swan Street presents a rare opportunity to own one of Guildford's most iconic landmarks - the Bushell's Tea building, now reimagined as two distinctive residences on a single title.
Behind its striking façade lies an exceptional opportunity to renovate and transform both dwellings into something truly special.
The front residence proudly retains the iconic "Bushell's" ghost sign, a celebrated piece of local history that perfectly captures the essence of Guildford's heritage streetscape.
Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings and a flexible floorplan featuring a main bedroom off the entry, a sitting room, kitchen, and dining area, ready to be enhanced to your vision.
Privately positioned to the rear, the second dwelling offers additional accommodation ideal for guests, extended family, or future expansion. The original stables further complement the property, providing two separate studio rooms and a workshop area, perfect for creative pursuits or home-based workspaces.
