18484 Bruce Highway,
Bowen, QLD 4805

Discover a unique opportunity to invest in a strategically located commercial property in a rapidly developing mixed use area on the southern outskirts of Bowen, North Queensland. This detached retail building boasts a generous total lettable area of 261m² (approx) and a building footprint of 341m² (approx), all sited on a recently cleared site of approximately 16.7 acres (6.7760 hectares approx) zoned "Emerging Community". The building has been recently refurbished, offering a modernised space that captures excellent visibility along the Bruce Highway, both local and longer distance traffic. An additional feature of this comprehensive property is that the frontage to the highway totals 493 metres (approx) providing expanded options for future development of the site.

The Emerging Community zoning reflects the Council strategy to have residential development occur in areas away from river flood plains to the west of Bowen. This site is at the Southern approach to Bowen where residential and rural residential development has been expanding significantly over the past two decades or more. This large site may have potential for satisfying the services needs of an expanding community.

Current improvements include a modern septic treatment plant and grease trap, underground power (3 phase) along with upgraded plumbing and a new electrical fitout. Currently tenanted by a thriving local seafood business, this perfectly located property would suit a multitude of uses. Key features include a concrete block retail shop with open verandahs on three sides, a semi-enclosed high-clearance shed, and a fully equipped 25-pallet cold room. Inside, the layout is designed for functionality, featuring a spacious retail area, sales counter, commercial kitchen, storeroom, office, and restroom facilities. The surrounding gravel hardstand area provides ample access and parking options for both cars and larger vehicles from not one but two entry and exit points, making it ideal for various alternative commercial activities.

With significant site area and options available for further expansion, this property presents a fantastic opportunity for growth and future development given the sheer size of the total land area. Additionally, a comprehensive plant and equipment package is available for separate sale if operating your very own retail seafood/takeaway business is your desire or alternatively, the property would suit many other uses.
