Charleston holds a special place in New Zealand's history, once considered as a potential capital during the 1860s gold rush era. Today, this small West Coast settlement serves as an activity hub at the entrance to Paparoa National Park, offering cycling trails, cave exploration, glow worm tours, and adventure rafting. Both Punakaiki and Westport are just 20 minutes away. The Charleston Tavern sits at the heart of this tight-knit community, welcoming both locals and the steady stream of tourists who pass through. This substantial venue accommodates up to 100 patrons across its bar and restaurant spaces, buzzing during summer while maintaining strong local support year-round. Built in 1990, the 330m² property features a commercial kitchen and three-bedroom living quarters. Charleston is experiencing renewed interest as both a holiday destination and tourism base, making this an opportunity to combine business income with a lifestyle change. The operation shows steady, modest turnover with clear potential for growth. Priced competitively - less than what you'd pay for a quality residential home - it offers considerably more opportunity. A comprehensive information pack is available for serious enquiries. With summer approaching, now's an ideal time to purchase and put your own stamp on this established business.
