A Rare Development Opportunity in the Heart of the Sunshine Coast

Located on the banks of the Kowie River, within walking distance to Port Alfred's West Beach and Stenden University, is the Ferryman's Hotel.

Today it may be an old building that's seen better days, with peeling paint and cracked walls. But despite its dilapidated state, the property offers incredible potential for anyone with a keen eye for history, architecture and development.

It is situated in a prime location, with easy access to public transport and all the amenities you could need.

Comprising 29 rooms, a large-scale kitchen, lounge, dining and reception areas, the main hotel is a place of wonder with many antique features. The downstairs pub and entertainment area sustained fire damage in 2019.

For additional accommodation, there is a separate annex with 12 rooms and communal ablutions, as well as another building with further accommodation and parking facilities. In addition, the property offers numerous outbuildings and garage space which would be ideal for managers accommodation and/or storage facilities.

The stand itself offers room for further development and refinement, with a well-sized garden, established tree life and sufficient parking space. It also boasts private jetty rights, although one would need to be reconstructed.

Zoned for general residential and commercial use, this is a unique development opportunity for anyone looking to invest, restore or redevelop this iconic hotel.
