One of the Sunshine Coast’s most renowned pubs is on the market.

The Sands Tavern and Liquorland Warehouse property at 1 Carnaby Street in Maroochydore is being marketed by Sydney-based Gilberts Property on behalf of Lendlease.

The property remains advertised on the agency’s website and a leading commercial property site following a tender campaign earlier this year.

Gilberts labelled the tavern a “trophy pub” and stated that it was in a “superb location”.

“The property is adjacent to the new Maroochydore CBD: Australia’s largest green field CBD development, and opposite Sunshine Plaza shopping centre, the largest on the Sunshine Coast,” the agency said.

“The property is also on the proposed route of The Wave, linking Birtinya with Sunshine Coast Airport.”

The 2.04ha site has a renewed lease to 2036. It is leased to Australian Venue Co, a major pub and hospitality operator with more than 200 venues across Australia, and Liquorland QLD.

Gilberts provided further details on the site, including 2613sqm of floor area and 117 parking spaces.

It stated that it is in the Principal Centre Zone and annual rent increases.

The Sands Tavern, which includes a beer garden, first opened in the early 1990s.

Its website states it is “known for its welcoming atmosphere and traditional pub fare”.

The city centre area, behind the site, is evolving with commercial, residential and community development continuing to take shape across the precinct.
