This iconic heritage-listed building built in 1923 is rich in local history and positioned in the heart of the village on a 785m2 block opposite the railway station, just a short stroll to shopping and dining; provides a unique opportunity to purchase an iconic slice of Pomona strongly linked to the past and offering a future, a myriad of exciting possibilities.
The building itself was the original Cooroora Masonic Temple, with works completed by volunteer labour; the first masonic meeting was held on 23 June 1923. One of the founding members, William (Bill) Hodge - a local fruiter and restaurateur hand-painted original murals in the main hall, replicas of those that decorated the Masonic Temple at the Criterion Restaurant in London.
In recent years the building has been professionally restored and it is currently rented to a commercial tenant with a lease expiring in November 2025 (with possibility of vacating early) for $1,704 per month.
The building comprises of a reception area and kitchenette at entry, huge open space, two offices/bedrooms/treatment rooms, and a bathroom. High cathedral ceilings, hardwood timber floors, VJ panelling, ceiling fans, and air-conditioning are existing features; and there is a stunning view of Mount Cooroora from the rear.
A variety of uses could be explored to maximise the advantages of its central location, excellent branding/exposure to Station Street, as well as the abundance of space for onsite visitor/client parking; covering beauty salons, health/wellness centre, gallery, café/restaurant, childcare, office space, boutique retail etc, and it could also be utilised as a residence with the installation of a full kitchen.
Nestled in the Noosa hinterland Pomona is a delightful village with a vibrant community spirit and a proud history of farming and timber milling, and in more recent years, has developed a strong cultural/artistic vibe that has further enriched the ever evolving narrative of this charming railway town.
Land-bankers, investors, buyers seeking commercial sites, and even those looking for a cosy place to anchor down and call home that stands out from the crowd; this is the type of property that is rarely available and plays a pivotal role in the aesthetic fabric of the town, a much-loved building with a future as bright as its past is interesting.
