Affectionately referred to by the locals as the 'Lunawanna Store', this community-orientated, locally adored property is historically a much-loved landmark.
Perfectly positioned, this property is virtually opposite the 'T' section and in plain sight of all traffic heading to South Bruny National Park. This location, at the end of Bruny Island Main Road, is also the last stop for refreshments or supplies for those staying overnight in either of the National Park camping grounds.
The South Bruny National Park is a park of two halves, one being the beaches of Cloudy Bay and the other the spectacular Cape Bruny Lighthouse and is visited by as many as a hundred thousand people a year. To be able to see both, visitors must pass this property and it's not surprising that locals and many repeat visitors know this as 'the place to stop'…after all, what better way to contemplate the day's adventures and surfing than over a coffee, brunch or lunch?
As Lunawanna does not have a "Village Zone" this property is unique with its permission to operate as a retail business. Previously issued permits are perpetual with ongoing use and have ensured this exclusive permission.
This recognised landmark has three genuine income-producing opportunities, there is a large shop, restaurant including commercial kitchen and liquor licence and a residence/visitor accommodation. There are separate facilities for each of the three spaces and the comfortable accommodation has a private deck to enjoy the spectacular sunsets, channel and mountain views!
Ownership changed hands several years ago and since then the owners have continued a strong community connection. Currently the respected espresso bar operates four days a week and the shop support's the Bruny Whole Foods Co-op, cementing this as a place for locals and visitors to feel a real sense of community.
With the fast-growing permanent resident population on the island and ever-increasing visitors, this property lends itself to a variety of possibilities that could suit a passive investor or owner occupier.
A new owner might utilise the accommodation space at the west end of the building, which has a previous history of being a bakery, a pizzeria, and burger place. This could be re-purposed as a café. It retains plumbing and power for espresso machine, plumbing for handwash basin and a stainless-steel food-prep bench.
The building has been designed so that the commercial and residential sections are each served by separate water supply. There is instantaneous gas hot water for the commercial kitchen, and electric hot water for the residence. There are two brand new stainless-steel rain-water storage tanks with ample water capacity at 30,000 litres.
The cosy accommodation is kept warm with a respected Nectre Baker's oven. This system heats water via wet-back and solar rooftop panels and the wood heater in the restaurant is an excellent functioning Kingston Steelfire. A comprehensive list of additional inclusions can also be made available upon request.
With room for further business development, this property in its remarkable location, is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a sound investment that has multiple possibilities and offers a seaside lifestyle in a supportive community environment.
A rare opportunity like this doesn't present often, don't hesitate to contact Laureen Wood, also an island resident for further details.
Open 6th July 11am-12pm
