2½-Storey Heritage Shophouse on Carnarvon Lane, George Town UNESCO Buffer Zone. | 360 tour et VR

Lorong Carnarvon, George Town, 10450 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia

Real Estate (for sale)

This charming 2½-storey prewar heritage shophouse sits along Carnarvon Lane (Lorong Carnarvon), right within the UNESCO World Heritage Site buffer zone of George Town. The location offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful, mostly residential lane with character and charm, yet just a short stroll from Armenian Street, Beach Street, and Carnarvon Street.

This significantly enhances structural integrity and makes renovations much more straightforward. Bathrooms are available on both ground and first floors, adding to the practicality of the layout. The upper floor features a distinctive split-level design that adds character and spatial depth. Previously used for swiftlet breeding decades ago—with such activity now banned by the local council—the property has since been cleaned, repaired, and well maintained by the current owner. This listed property is a true blank canvas for creative transformation. It can be redesigned into a private residence, boutique suites, a gallery, studio, wellness space, office, cafe or any lifestyle concept that fits the heritage setting. Renovation possibilities are broad and cost-efficient due to the strengthened structure. Carnarvon Lane itself offers strong upside. It enjoys excellent walkability to attractions in George Town’s heritage core, yet r
