A BOUTIQUE COASTAL SANCTUARY WITH INCOME POTENTIAL - 2523MF

FREEHOLD $3,500,000

Business Description

Set amongst the pristine coastal bushland of Arakoon and moments from the famous Smoky Cape Lighthouse and South West Rocks, Smoky Cape Retreat is a unique lifestyle and business opportunity wrapped into one idyllic package.

This well-established retreat offers six spacious rooms designed for a calm and restful stay and an exceptional opportunity for owner-operators or savvy investors seeking a sea-change with steady income.

Smoky Cape Retreat features a fully equipped commercial kitchen, which has previously supported restaurant and café operations. The property also holds excellent potential to be transformed into a wellness destination, such as a spa or yoga retreat.

Mary and Ken, the current owners, have lovingly operated the retreat since they designed and built it in 1998-99. Now, after many wonderful years, they’ve decided it’s time to slow down and move on to their next chapter.

Opportunities like this for a true sea change are rare. Take this chance to embrace a lifestyle shift that offers both serenity and income in one of the North Coast of NSW most beautiful settings.
