36 Jersey Street located within the Cowaramup Industrial Area comprises a level, corner block of land with drive through access.
Cowaramup is a growing rural service centre, centrally located between Cape Leeuwin and Cape Naturaliste and within easy access to major wineries, transport routes and the soon to be upgraded Busselton Airport.
This property is one of the larger sites within the Industrial Area and has an established (approximately 10 years) business in operation on site. The site also has an approval from the Local Authority for a managers/caretakers dwelling which was granted in 2004. This is a unique feature of this property as there are no other dwellings approved within the Industrial Area and the current zoning does not permit any others to be approved.
The property can be purchased individually or in conjunction with the adjoining property (58 Wrigglesworth Drive). The joint purchase would provide a total land area of 3,361sqm on two titles and substantial improvements.
