The Trebonne Hotel has been a popular watering hole for a long period of the shire's history. The hotel has a bar area, pool room, toilets and beer garden. There is also a kitchen and dining room that could possibly be re-opened by a new owner. There are also 2 coldrooms and a storage area downstairs.
There is also manager's residence including a bathroom and 8 guest rooms with 2 extra bathrooms upstairs. The deck at the front gives great views over the canefields to the mountains surrounding the area.
A large modern 5 bay shed (1 enclosed, 3 roller doors & 1 open bay) is located at the rear of the property. A new roof was added to the hotel since Cyclone Yasi, while a large amount of fencing has been done.
The 1,388 square metre corner block is located on a busy intersection. The main road travels between Ingham and Abergowrie while the side road leads to Mount Fox.
A new owner could continue on as the hotel with opening up the other avenues available or even make it into a bed & breakfast establishment. There are so many opportunities to consider.
The hotel is down the road from the local nursing home and across the road from the local shop, mechanic & fuel depot. The local state school is a short drive away.
The property is listed at $650,000.
