Home with Accommodation and Laundry Business

Commanding pride of place in Ranfurly's town centre, the former Post Office is currently operating as a backpackers and commercial laundry with owners accommodation upstairs. Perfectly located to take advantage of the iconic Otago Central Rail Trail and New Zealand's newest road trip - the spectacular Central Otago Touring Route.
Run the business as it is and enjoy living in the heart of Central Otago or explore the potential to re-purpose the backpackers into more long-term accommodation or even renovate into a family home. The self-contained upstairs apartment could provide an immediate income stream to support your investment while you decide how to proceed.
The backpackers contains a multi-bunk shared room, single bunkrooms, double and family rooms, comfortable dining and living area, well-equipped communal kitchen and multiple showers and toilets. The walk-in Postmaster's safe and separate strongroom are both fully operational and provide handy storage space.
Upstairs you'll find a comfortable two-bedroom, one-bathroom private residence with extensive views out to the mountains. Open plan from kitchen to dining and living and offering great indoor/outdoor flow to the sunny balcony. This home captures the warm Central Otago sun throughout the day and is kept cosy by the log burner on cool nights.
The commercial laundry operation is easy to run, combining seamlessly with the backpackers and is a significant part of the business. Customers include other accommodation providers, local businesses, sports teams and individuals. The laundry area also contains probably the last DVD hire outlet in New Zealand!
Ranfurly is a prosperous and growing town boasting a modern hospital and medical centre, excellent schools and recreational facilities, a host of clubs and activities to keep you busy and a friendly and welcoming community.
The Old Post Office is an interesting prospect for those in search of a home with income or an astute investment opportunity for someone with vision.
