Selling agent Tren Vine, of Calaby Real Estate, said the property, which could be used for commercial or residential purposes, was attracting interest from a range of buyers so far.
“We’ve seen in the past a premises like this that’s been converted into a house,” he said.
“We think it’s commercial uses are probably stronger than the residential though.
“This one has got good exposure because it’s on the main road (and) it’s probably got one of the best equipped kitchens that I’ve seen.
“It’s got a lot of really great features.”

Mr Vine said while there was no shortage of cellar doors and restaurants in the region, they rarely hit the market, so this presented a unique opportunity.
Property records show the sellers bought the property, which was once a house, in 2014.
Mr Vine said they had decided to sell it because it felt like the right time, and they had also offloaded a vineyard they owned in the area.
The property is being sold via an expressions of interest campaign, which closes on June 18.
