Built early last century the Burdekin Hotel in Ayr's CBD would surely hold many decades of interesting History behind its walls. Situated on a half acre site at 204-210 Queen Street the main solid concrete structure is complimented by the upstairs timber Queensland style open verandah and the downstairs timber posted open patio entrance where once horses were tied to the Hitch Rail.
Behind the Verandah there are 21 airconditioned rooms which are for most of the year tenanted to backpackers and workers for an average of $160 per week each. Bathroom and Toilet blocks are situated at each end of the building as well as a Laundry on the same floor. A few of the rooms are self contained. Common cooking facilities and dining areas are provided for tenants downstairs.
The Public bar, Restaurant and Entertainment areas have not been operational for a few years but the basics are there ready for someone with a vision for success to renew the liquor licence and bring this establishment back to its former glory. The large Saloon Style Public Bar opens to an Entertainment Room at the back where functions can be held with room for the Former beer Garden to once again become a meeting place for families. Two Dining Rooms with the traditional metal ceilings also sit beside the Commercial kitchen.
A 20 kw solar System has been installed in the roof to minimise Power costs. There are several garages for residents vehicles and the large back yard can accommodate customer off street parking. The building does need some renovations and repairs but with the asking price of the property this is a chance to claim a piece of Burdekin history and restore it to its former glory to become a destination Burdekin residents and visitors can enjoy. Call Cass Arboit for more information and to arrange an inspection.
