Robe is recognized as a township which has successfully managed to combine commerce, tourism, heritage and its famed local industries with its great history and character. While successfully retaining the charm of the past it has embraced carefully designed development.
Part of Robe’s secret is the formation and shape of the town influenced by coastal land features and the seafaring influences of the early settlers. The resultant business and town centre is confined generally to a picturesque strip of land extending from the Lake Butler Marina to the Lake Fellmongery Ski Lake. Much of the development focuses on Victoria Street which is part of the main entrance road to the town.
No 25 is in the heart of a growing Retail precinct linking the various high profile cafes and restaurants with the growing service industries and entertainment venues.
The property comprises 583 m2 of level land with an existing office building of approximately 66m2 thus leaving a very significant open area for expansion or redevelopment. Development naturally would be subject to planning consents.
Traditionally Robe’s business influences were seasonal. In recent years there has been an expansion of tourism with far more emphasis being shown on the promotion of Low and Mid Season accommodation in addition to the highly successful High Season. Businesses now successfully trade year round without the traditional Winter recess of years gone by. The establishment of a wide range of vineyards and associated boutique wineries has contributed further while the traditional fishing industries continue in a very sustainable manner.
