Prime Investment Opportunity!

Dreaming of running a quintessential Kiwi tavern while enjoying the relaxed charm of a close-knit rural community?

This is more than just a property, it’s an opportunity for an investment or turnkey business, relaxed country lifestyle, and multi income-generating package all rolled into one.

Positioned on the bustling State Highway 6 with striking street presence, this freehold commercial property and dwelling sits at the heart of Rai Valley, the key link between Nelson, Blenheim, and the Marlborough Sounds.

Formerly known as the Rai Valley Tavern/Millers Rest and recently trading as “The Wild Weasel”, the property has been refreshed and revitalised by the current vendors, ready for its next chapter. Inside, you’ll find 2 functional bars with 8 operating taps each, casual dining spaces, a chiller which currently supports on and off licence sales, function room that hosts committed recurring clientele and a large commercial kitchen.

Additional to the commercial property, there is also a warm, cosy, 3 bedroom dwelling with mixed glazing, compliant fire, multiple off street parking for hobbies and vehicles, and a separate laundry.

Extra considerations include:

-Multiple income streams from the commercial space, land, and additional section/field attached to the dwelling with further income potential

-High-profile SH6 location at the gateway to Okiwi Bay & the Marlborough Sounds, supported by loyal locals, travelers, and seasonal tourism

-Income-generating car park included, with annual increases from a trusted local authority

-Untapped revenue opportunities

-Renovated and ready to operate

A rare opportunity to secure a well-known country tavern with heart, history, and huge potential.
