Home and Business

The owner is on the move and is keen to sell the property and the business. All genuine offers will be considered.

If you enjoy the hospitality industry and want to own and operate your own country Hotel, then this is the property and business for you. This well-established country hotel is in the heart of Nightcaps, a sprawling busy township surrounded by a large rural community. The hotel is a community hub for the locals and also caters for travellers passing through the Ohai/Nightcaps/Birchwood area. The hotel has a wonderful, bright and breezy, warm feeling about it, and it provides the opportunity to a new owner to further grow the business and increase the financial returns.

The hotel offers a modern, spacious, entertaining bar area, pool room, restaurant dining area along with eight accommodation rooms, all being very well maintained and in great condition. A manager's flat is included in the accommodation area upstairs. This has an open plan living area, two bedrooms and its own bathroom facilities. The eight accommodation rooms are single/double units with shared bathroom facilities. There is plenty of potential to increase the sale of these rooms to travellers coming to the area, either for work, a weekend away or passing through on the Te Araroa Walking Trail (from Birchwood to Merrivale), for which the hotel is a registered supplier. A courtesy van comes with the business which serves the locals and the walkers that regularly stay at the hotel.

Please note: Land and Floor area measurements are approximate, and boundary lines indicative only. All efforts have been made to source accurate information from reputable sources (i.e Regional/City councils, Propertysmarts/REINZ/Property-Guru, Core Logic etc). We cannot, however, verify its accuracy and suggest this should not replace independent clarification through standard due diligence.

Unclaimed
Nobody is tracking this property yet

If it is yours, claiming it puts the council record, the title and what it costs you to hold in one place — and lets you put your lending, insurance and power out to people who compete for them.

Free. Takes about a minute.

We check your name against the registered owner on the title before a claim is accepted. Nothing on this page changes for anyone else, and no provider is contacted until you ask.

What claiming gets you
1One live recordCouncil valuation, title details and registered interests, kept current rather than gathered again every time you need them.
2Your lending in the pictureAdd what you owe, or connect the bank, and the equity and LVR stop being a calculation you redo by hand.
3Providers compete for itPut the mortgage, the insurance and the power out to people who want the business — on your terms, when you ask.
4Everything else you ownOne search finds other titles in your name and in companies you are a director of.

Zoning and hazards

What could you build here?

See whether a granny flat fits beside the house: the Building Act exemption, the national granny flat rules and the zone’s own. Then ask builders to price the shape you pick.
