The Officers Mess, at Eaglehawk Neck located 79 kilometres from Hobart, on the main highway (the popular Convict Trail Touring Route) is offered for freehold sale. The Eaglehawk Neck & Pirates Bay area of the Tasman Peninsula is one of Tasmania’s (and Australia’s) most magnificent scenic destinations.
55.2 metres of pure oceanfrontage in a total parcel of 5122 metres of land, provides an unparalleled opportunity for development by an entrepreneur with the vision to take this business to the next level & new heights(literally!)
The existing business of a café restaurant, takeaway, supermarket, & souvenir outlet is complemented by the official (White Eye) Tourist Information Centre which also operates from the restaurant/shop.
* The business enjoys high volume traffic. One of the major tourist attractions at Eaglehawk Neck, is the original historic building, the Officers Mess 1832, which housed the officers in charge of the narrow causeway preventing convicts escaping from Port Arthur. The historic attraction, the Officers Mess is located immediately adjacent to the Visitor Centre & Shop (also called the Officer’s Mess)& visitors use the carpark of the café. The other major attraction of the area, the infamous dogline is only a few hundred metres away. Australia’s premium heritage site, Port Arthur Historic site attracts over 250,000 visitors annually all of whom pass by the Officer’s Mess – en route to Port Arthur some 19km further along the Convict Trail. The property enjoys excellent road exposure with all visitors to the Tasman National Park getting their first glimpse of the grandeur of the coastline at Eaglehawk Neck (& this view encompasses the Officers Mess which provides the first welcome port of call & refreshment stop on the Peninsula.)
* Visitors flock to the Peninsular not just for the history, but also for the coastal walks in the Tasman Peninsula, which are legendary, as is the fishing in the waters around the Peninsula.
* Zoning is village/township & discret
