Noah's Ark Backpackers - New Captain Required!

What an opportunity, here we bring this historic building right in the very heart of Greymouth now known as Noah's Ark Backpackers, to the market. The original construction of the Catholic Church and neighboring Presbytery began in 1887 with both finally completed and opened in 1914. Guests staying in the themed 15 room property are treated to the original features of the grand Kauri and Rimu timber staircases, ornate carved wooden open fire surrounds in most rooms, stunning stain glass windows, high ceilings and wrap around verandahs top and bottom that this beautiful two-story Edwardian building displays throughout. The leasehold property is being sold fully furnished including all operational chattels in the common areas such as lounge/dining area, fully equipped communal kitchen and large laundry. A separate self-contained managers unit, spacious and relatively private sun filled back yard, large 3 bay garage and workshop with an additional room attached at the rear commonly used to accommodate coach drivers are also part of this amazing package. Thinking outside the square however, the property also lends itself to a multitude of other investment opportunities such as an apartment block, office block for multiple businesses, boutique hotel and restaurant or what about your very own Edwardian family Villa. You will appreciate the all-new West Coast Pounamu Pathway building, quick access to the start of the West Coast bike trail, Tranz Alpine Rail Station and all other varied township amenities. This is an exciting opportunity, to not only own a piece of real history but to also own a property that is likely to secure your financial future and lifestyle. Please ensure you contact either of the listing agents for available viewing times and all additional information. This property is to be sold by Private Treaty with the vendors considering offers over $560,000 + GST (if any).
