Cedar Lodge Motel presents an excellent leasehold opportunity, delivering an impressive $630,667 net profit on revenue exceeding $1.3 million in the 2025/26 financial year. This performance is underpinned by consistently strong trading, robust 80% occupancy and reliable year-round demand. The 29-room operation benefits from 21 years remaining on the lease through to August 2047, providing substantial tenure security for the incoming operator.
Strategically positioned as the closest motel to Townsville University Hospital, with PTSS (Patient Travel Subsidy Scheme) approval, the property commands a strong market position, serving healthcare, corporate, trades, and family segments across North Queensland's premier regional city. Extensively refurbished and requiring no immediate capital expenditure, it features new smart televisions, Wi-Fi, appliances, fixtures and comprehensive security systems throughout. A comfortable three-bedroom owner's residence, in-ground swimming pool, on-site parking with an off-site option for larger vehicles/trucks, and coin-operated laundry facilities complete this turnkey operation - all on a 2,023m² site fronting a major arterial road.
Townsville's diverse and resilient economy — spanning healthcare, education, government services, defence, mining, construction, tourism and major events - drives strong year-round accommodation demand, with the added advantage of no direct geographical motel competition in the immediate vicinity. The business runs efficiently with a two-person team or under professional management, offering further upside through tariff optimisation and operational refinements on an already strong financial base.
Rarely does a leasehold motel combine this level of profitability, occupancy consistency, lease security and strategic positioning in a thriving regional centre. Contact Resort Brokers today to secure this outstanding North Queensland motel opportunity.
