Empire Hotel - 1p6246

A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY IN HISTORIC TOURIST TOWN

CRE Brokers are proud to present the Empire Hotel Beechworth as a freehold vacant possession opportunity for the astute purchaser.

Sited on the busy corner of Camp & High Streets diagonally opposite the famous Beechworth Bakery, the Empire Hotel offers a food-oriented operator the ability to walk in and start trading immediately.

Extensively refurbished from 2017 onwards, the hotel offers a large front bar/lounge with open fireplace leading to a secondary lounge/seating area, cellar and male & female amenities. On the lower level sits the dining room capable to seating around 50 patrons (approx.) immediately adjacent to the commercial kitchen boasting modern equipment capable of producing any variety of cuisine. There's also a second cellar which has potential to be turned into a whiskey bar or function room (STCA) and provide a unique experience for guests.

Upstairs provides neatly presented guest accommodation rooms (3 x twin & 3 x queen rooms) with shared bathroom amenities, a manager's studio apartment, 2 x small function rooms, residential kitchen, storage room and the jewel in the crown, the corner all-weather verandah licensed for 97 patrons which offers a unique view of the historic gold rush town of Beechworth.

Beechworth is a must-see tourist town in North-East Victoria, with a vibrant local offering and is the heart of the renown Beechworth wine region. Although not currently trading, the Empire Hotel was recently the social hub of the community, and the next owner will benefit greatly from the potential return of this patronage.
