Scorchers has become an East Coast institution in a relatively short time, delivering delicious food quickly and efficiently in the popular seaside township of Orford. Specialising in pizzas, it has carved a niche for itself for both locals and visitors as a quality restaurant and bar in one of Tasmania’s tourism hotspots.

With its prime location near the Bridge, it has become not only a destination in its own right, but a stop-over or meeting point for families and commuters, wanting a pizza and a drink on the way to Hobart or arriving for a few day’s at their shack.

Being a licensed café, it also is popular for the large contingent of people living in Orford, ensuring a steady clientele year round from locals, with trade boosted in the peak season, and weekends for dining in or getting takeaway pizzas. This is a quality operation with a guaranteed market of locals and passing trade. There is a great outdoor seating area to increase dining capacity and a superb commercial kitchen with a woodfired pizza oven the centrepiece of the operation.

There is also a delightful modern two bedroom apartment directly above the restaurant with water views and a fantastic deck area which will make this business attractive for those wanting to earn an income yet still enjoy a seaside location and lifestyle.

The apartment is spacious with open plan kitchen, living and dining, two lovely bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a study and a beautiful designer bathroom with sunken spa bath and twin vanity.

This is an excellent opportunity to buy into a prime tourist hotspot at the gateway to Tasmania’s East Coast at a time when projections for tourist numbers and real estate values in the area are booming.
