Historic Character, Creative Potential

Positioned in a prominent main street location in the heart of Port Chalmers, Port Stables is a truly unique historic property offering character, flexibility, and opportunity. Formerly a well-loved bar and restaurant, and more recently utilised as a creative workspace and gallery, this iconic building is filled with history and personality.

Interior Entering from George Street, you are welcomed into the main open-plan space where the original stone walls, macrocarpa-topped bar, and large open fireplace create an atmosphere rich in warmth and character. The versatile layout lends itself to a wide range of possibilities, including:

• Microbrewery
• Café
• Coffee roastery
• Gallery
• Creative studio
• Boutique retail space
• A truly unique home (all subject to DCC/council approval) The loft above adds further scope for development or creative use. At the rear of the building is a thoughtfully designed one-bedroom apartment, developed in 2005. Featuring open-plan kitchen and living, large sliding doors opening to the garden, separate laundry, and a mezzanine-style bedroom, the space offers comfortable and functional living.

Exterior Outside, the grounds are currently in a more natural, established state, however the mature trees, existing vegetation, and sheltered courtyard provide a fantastic foundation for someone with vision to further enhance and transform the space.
