Overview

This unique property situated on over one acre of freehold land offers a rare blend of lifestyle and commercial opportunity. The centerpiece is the iconic Stone House Café, a striking sandstone structure that combines rustic charm and functional commercial design. Authentic log beam ceilings, slate flooring, and sandstone walls create a warm and inviting ambiance, while the expansive wrap-around verandah offers elevated views of the natural bushland extending towards the Hawkesbury River.

The café is perfectly equipped for business, featuring a fully licensed liquor setup, a magnificent hardwood timber bar, and a high-capacity commercial kitchen with gas pizza ovens, fryers, cooktops, and stainless steel preparation areas. This setup creates an excellent foundation for a craft brewery, taproom, or established café operation, catering to both local residents and travelers drawn to the property’s historic appeal.

Complementing the commercial space is a charming log cabin style residence designed with a natural aesthetic to harmonize with the café and surrounding landscape. The home includes a spacious living area with exposed log walls and a wood-burning fireplace, fostering a cozy retreat atmosphere. The residence comprises multiple bedrooms on the ground floor and a versatile loft space upstairs, enriched with raked timber ceilings and skylights that flood the interior with natural light.

The property boasts outstanding street exposure with approximately 110 meters of road frontage, ideal for attracting passing trade. Zoned RU1 Primary Production, the location offers diverse opportunities subject to council approval, making it attractive for entrepreneurs, professionals seeking a lifestyle business, or investors looking for a landmark property with a strong community presence. Conveniently located within reasonable distance to key CBDs including Rouse Hill, Windsor, and Castle Hill, it delivers a balance between regional charm and accessibility.

Additional practical features include ample on-site and off-street parking, enhancing convenience for both customers and residents, while the expansive decking areas connect indoor and outdoor living seamlessly, framed by picturesque bushland views. This property stands out as a significant regional icon with broad potential for development and enjoyment in a tranquil setting.
