Lebuh Acheh, George Town / heritage shophouse / Category II / restored shell
A Category II shophouse in the core zone, structurally restored and ready for fit-out.
A two-bay shophouse on Lebuh Acheh inside the George Town UNESCO core zone, listed Category II. The roof, timber structure and party walls were restored in 2021 under an approved submission; the air-well, the original floor tiles and the timber shutters survive. What remains is the fit-out — services, kitchen, bathrooms and finishes.
A Category II listing controls the facade, the roof form and the general character. In practice that means you may reconfigure the interior with approval but you may not change the frontage, add a floor visible from the street, or enclose the air-well. Faridah will walk you through what the last approved submission on this building actually permitted.
The building suits an owner-occupier, a boutique commercial tenant or a long-let residential conversion. It does not suit anyone in a hurry: conservation submissions add time to any works programme.

George Town
What this area is like
The heritage core is the only part of Penang where what you may do to a building is written down before you buy it. Category I and II listings inside the UNESCO zone control the facade, the roof line, the party walls and often the air-well. That is not a reason to avoid it — restored shophouses on Lebuh Acheh and Lebuh Melayu have held value better than most strata on the island — but it means the survey and the conservation position matter more than the asking price.
