About this property

62 Yass Street, Gunning NSW Price Guide: $1,025,000 Own the building. Own the business. Live upstairs. Change your life - without giving up income. Dreaming of a Tree Change - Without Risking Everything? People often ask: How do we make a tree change or sea change and still maintain income, flexibility, the ability to travel? This is that opportunity: Merino Cafe is an 18-year established hospitality business offered together with the freehold property and a renovated two-bedroom apartment above - all in one package. This is not a start-up. This is proven income, asset security and lifestyle combined. What Does $1,025,000 Buy You? What does $1,025,000 buy in Canberra? - A house. - A mortgage. - Traffic. - And the same routine tomorrow. What does $1,025,000 buy in Sydney? - An apartment. - Body corporate fees. - And limited control. What does $1,025,000 buy in Gunning? - A freehold commercial building - A profitable cafe business - A renovated two-bedroom apartment - 765sqm of land in the heart of town - Income from day one - Flexibility and control It buys ownership - not just property. A Simple Model That Works One of the strengths of Merino Cafe is its simplicity.It focuses on what it does well: - Great coffee - Homemade cakes and slices - Fresh gourmet sandwiches - Honest cafe food This is not a chef-dependent, high-complexity kitchen.It does not require highly specialised staff. It requires people who care. The menu is proven. The systems are established. The staff are trained across all areas.Lower complexity. Lower stress. Stronger consistency. Four-Day Trading. Real Balance. Currently trading Wednesday to Saturday.There's a reason more hospitality operators are embracing four and five-day models.When owners and staff aren't burnt out, customers feel it. This is sustainable profitability.It allows: - Time to recharge - Time to travel - Time to pursue other interests - Sustainable operations Regional Investment Logic Maybe you're a couple seeking balance. Maybe one of you still works in Canberra. Two tracks of Fleetwood Mac and you're there. No traffic lights leaving Gunning.Clear road. Clear head. Approximately 45 minutes to Canberra. Approximately 2.5-3 hours to Sydney. I genuinely believe the future of investment lies in regional communities within 90 minutes of major capital cities. Gunning sits squarely in that corridor. Accessible. Connected. Authentic. Perspective From the Market I've sold four-day-a-week cafes in Canberra for $400,000 making around $120,000 per year. I've sold commercial properties for $1.5 million returning $75,000 in rent. Rarely do I see a business and think: "This is something I could do - and would do." This is one of those times. Freehold. Income. Residential accommodation. Community. All in one. Will AI Replace This? Will automation replace homemade cakes and good coffee? Some industries are vulnerable to disruption. Community cafes are not. People gather. They connect. They stop on long drives. They support local businesses.That doesn't disappear. A Genuine Transition The owner and I are working in partnership for this campaign. She will conduct open inspections personally so you can experience the business properly. All financial and commercial enquiries should be directed to me. After 18 years, she is ready for her next chapter - and she genuinely wants the next owner to succeed.She is prepared to: - Teach you the recipes - Introduce you to the locals - Transition staff and suppliers - Support a structured handover - This is not a rushed exit. It is a genuine passing of the baton. The Opportunity Freehold hospitality assets with residential accommodation rarely come to market - particularly with an 18-year trading history. Auction Price Guide: $1,025,000 - Business, Freehold & Apartment Included - Tree change. Income. Flexibility. Community.
