Positioned within one of regional Victoria's most affluent and tightly held destinations, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly regarded restaurant with strong foundations already in place.

Generating approximately $1.6 million in annual revenue and $6,000+ per week in adjusted net profit (EBITDA) under a semi-managed structure, the business demonstrates consistent performance across approximately 49 weeks of trade per annum, supported by a loyal, quality-driven customer base and strong repeat trade.

A highly regarded restaurant offering a refined and welcoming dining experience, built on consistency, quality, and strong local support. The venue has established itself as a destination within the region, attracting both loyal residents and visiting clientele seeking a premium offering.

Surrounded by a dense base of high-income residents and a steady flow of destination visitors, the restaurant benefits from exceptional spending capacity and limited direct competition, creating a highly defensible market position.

The business is currently operated under semi-management, with the owner having stepped away from day-to-day operations over the past 10 months to focus on family and external commitments. The restaurant continues to perform under this structure, offering immediate stability with the option for a more hands-on approach to unlock further upside.

Well-developed systems and processes are in place across staffing, onboarding, and daily operations, allowing for a seamless transition and consistent performance from day one.

A key highlight is the dual shopfront configuration, providing operational flexibility and strong street presence. Combined with a secure lease in place through to 2044 and exceptionally low occupancy costs (approximately 3.5% of revenue), this represents a highly attractive and sustainable cost base for a restaurant of this calibre.

Rent $55k per annum
