The Iconic Seaview House Lifestyle and Income!

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be a part of Queenscliff's history! Constructed in 1875, the iconic freestanding building comes with a rich and colourful past. Originally it was the town's grocer's shop, then the Seaview Coffee Palace - before being transformed into a guesthouse, which is how it operates today. Beyond the charming heritage facade, lies an intricate and versatile floor plan with myriad options for use, and its prominent corner position in the main street is second-to-none.

The lower level comprises a large living space, sitting room, office, corner shop (art gallery), a spacious entertainment/dining room, fully equipped industrial kitchen with cool room and storage space, a bar, cellar and a private outdoor entertainment area accessed externally via a roller door on Stokes Street. It's not difficult to visualise the lively entertainment and debaucherous parties that have taken place here!

On the upper level, 15 characterful ensuited bedrooms accommodate up to 35 people. Freshly painted and with reinforced windows, each of the quirky rooms contain TVs, fans and period furniture (the inclusion of which can be negotiated into the sale). Ornate features include stained glass windows, 70s wallpaper, a rustic fireplace and quaint in-built cabinetry, and a central lounge room opens to the balcony with its elaborate wrought iron balustrade, where you have quite possibly the best seat in town. An extension includes the 'manager's room', a larger space with ensuite and kitchenette and direct access to the enclosed courtyard below. Ducted heating and cooling operates throughout.

The possibilities of this extraordinary property are only limited by your imagination. Currently the premises is a fully licensed guest house specialising in group bookings - such a superb venue to accommodate wedding parties, girls' weekends, meditation retreats, Blues Train partygoers, golfing trips, large family gatherings and more! - with an art gallery leasing the corner portion of the building providing additional income. The venue would augur well as a restaurant, commercial shop front, wellness centre, up to 4 grand separate apartments (STCA), a permanent or holiday house, live music venue, or, with a little creativity and thanks to its extensive and flexible floor plan, all of the above! Revenue is guaranteed with months of upcoming bookings, allowing time to decide on the future direction of this magnificent local icon.

Queenscliff is renowned for its historical value and charming architecture, great beaches, beautiful walking and cycling tracks, wide open spaces, lively harbour and wonderful boutiques and cafes, and it's just a short drive further afield on the Bellarine Peninsula to enjoy spectacular wineries, world-class golf courses and the abundance of stunning coastline in the region.

- Position perfect: on a corner block in the main street!
- Full liquor licence extends throughout the entire building and surrounding pavements
- 15 ensuited BRs accommodate very large groups (a unique service in Queenscliff)
- Also includes huge entertainment hall, industrial kitchen, living areas, corner shop, balcony
- Enclosed courtyard is great for outdoor dining and entertaining, or hosting live musicians
