Overview

Fantastic Business & Lifestyle Opportunity - Rochester Post Office

Located approximately 180 km north of Melbourne, the welcoming township of Rochester sits between Bendigo and Echuca and services a thriving rural and semi-rural community of around 3,200 residents. This is a rare opportunity to purchase both the freehold and leasehold of the well-established Rochester Post Office, complete with a comfortable solid brick residence on a generous 975m² block.

The Shop:

The post office shop is spacious, bright, and well presented, featuring:

• A large service counter
• Two Australia Post EPOS machines
• Two label printers and one scanner
• Two manual cash drawers (tills)
• 362 Post Office Boxes, the majority currently leased

With Australia Post products occupying only around one quarter of the floor space, there is excellent potential to introduce a mixed retail offering or complementary business to increase revenue.
