Get into your own business - all you need is a deposit, and the business opportunity comes along with the purchase of the property.
A home and a business premises separated by firewall, each with a private courtyard, on one corner section less than 200m from Ruawai Wharf. This property was once home to a branch of the National Bank and is currently trading as Ruawai Pizza Bar and Steak House. The choice is yours: - continue this business as a home and income, or create your own new business in the fully equipped restaurant, bed'n'breakfast, or get two rental incomes for a positive cashflow return on investment. This opportunity could be yours for either the price of just land and buildings, or include the restaurant equipment by negotiation - the choice is yours.
The home is a 100 year-old villa, solid and straight with original dark wooden internal doors and character windows, loads of charm and character, and wheelchair-friendly with a full renovation almost finished. The main bedroom has an ensuite and opens through French doors onto a charming little porch and private courtyard. The living area opens out onto a separate north-facing deck and fenced yard, safe and secure for pets and children. New kitchen, new bathroom, new exterior paint job are all completed - just a bit of internal painting left to do. It is uncommon to find such a comfortable home attached to a commercial premises.
The licensed pizza bar/steak house has been providing locals and tourists with delicious food for over five years, and serves chilled drinks from the old bank vault behind the bar. Guests can enjoy the aroma and atmosphere of indoor dining, or relax in the sheltered garden bar with roofed deck and outdoor potbelly stove.
