160 Montague: a fixture on Lunenburg’s working waterfront since 1873. This striking 2½ storey warehouse building enjoys a prime location in the Old-Town Waterfront Commercial District. Frontage on both Montague Street and Bluenose Drive ensures high visibility in the busiest of pedestrian traffic areas.
Substantial renovations in 2004-05 include engineer-certified steel beam reinforcing, complete rewiring, new heating system & insulation, and new windows and doors. Exterior work includes extensive replacement of shingles and complete repainting.
The large 44’ x 31’ footprint offers over 3800 sq ft on 4 levels with excellent views of the waterfront activity and Lunenburg Harbour over to Kaulbach Head and the Bluenose Golf Club. Other key elements include storefront retail space on Montague Street, a large street level loading bay with 12’ high doors opening to Bluenose Dr, original wideplank flooring, and exposed wooden beams. The immaculate condition and updated systems of this 140 year old structure ready it for the next century of service.
The building, currently home of the Anderson Gallery, is in good company on a historic streetscape with other fine examples of 19th century commercial architecture and successful businesses. Recent zoning changes now allow Residential Uses in the building! 160 Montague represents a rare opportunity and a myriad of possibilities within Lunenburg’s vibrant Waterfront Commercial District!
NOTE: Option to purchase building with adjacent 1200 sq-ft lot for off-street parking, or development potential (side lot is also zoned General Commercial and has double street frontage on Montague & Bluenose). Price with side lot $535,000.
Old-Town Waterfront Commercial District: Montague Street, between Rum Row & Hopson Street. (Parking available on both Montague Street and Bluenose Drive)
