For sale by Andrea Adams of Stevens Egan Johnston Leongatha, who told WILLIAMS MEDIA, “this is a must see property for anyone looking to relocate to a picturesque rural location just minutes from the coastline.”
Centrally located on a block of approx. 1,012sqm with rear access, this business offers a complete package for a lifestyle change in Victoria’s South Gippsland region.
Andrea Adams told WILLIAMS MEDIA the Fish Creek General Store and Newsagency is the heart of a vibrant local community. “Just over 2 hours from Melbourne, Fish Creek is in a period of rebirth with an influx of new residents escaping the hustle and bustle of the city. With the feel of an old day Country Store, stocking local produce and wines there is huge potential to grow the business and live on site,” she said.
The long-established business has a strong reputation, providing the essentials to both the local community and the influx of tourists travelling through to the Wilson's Prom National Park.
Trading 7 days a week, the business offers local produce, fresh fruit and veggies, frozen goods, grocery items, newspapers and magazines, basic chemist supplies, toys and gifts. Full of charm, the character building dates back to 1900 and was recently updated to include a spacious interior with RC/AC, store room, prep area and office.
The adjoining period cottage, known as "The Hub", offers an opportunity to live on site. Featuring a quaint exterior, high ceilings, polished Baltic flooring, and original detailing, the home is ready to move into. The floorplan includes a central entrance hallway, four generous bedrooms, bright family room, kitchen with breakfast bar to meals area, spacious living room, and modern bathroom plus separate wc and laundry / utility room.
The space is currently utilised as a community meeting place, with 3 rooms individually rented, providing potential as a second income stream.
Says Adams “For anyone looking to relocate to a picturesque rural location just minutes from the coastline, who wants to feel appreciated and supported whilst providing the daily essentials, this is a must see property.”
