The Wharf Mooloolaba, a landmark and lifestyle precinct on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, has been listed for sale by long-term owners Evans Long.
Located on the Mooloolah River, the offering includes a 50-year wet lease until 2074 covering more than two hectares and a 57-berth marina. Positioned behind Mooloolaba Beach, the marina is within walking distance of surf-patrolled shores, restaurants and shops. Facilities for berth holders include free Wi-Fi, showers and laundromat access.
The broader Wharf precinct spans 6,964sqm of freehold land with 7,507sqm of net lettable area (NLA). Originally developed in 1988, it was acquired by Evans Long in 2016 and has since undergone a multi-million-dollar refurbishment. The upgrades revitalised the precinct into a tourism and lifestyle hub, now attracting over 2.2 million visitors each year.
Dirk Long, Director of Evans Long, stated: “The Wharf has been a passion project for nearly 10 years. We’re extremely proud to have restored it as a community and tourist anchor, and we believe its next chapter will be even more exciting under new ownership.”
CBRE’s Michael Hedger, Wayne Bunz and Joe Tynan have been appointed to manage the sale. According to the firm, the Wharf generates diversified income streams across hospitality, retail and food and beverage, with a weighted average lease expiry (WALE) of 7.9 years by income and 12.8 years by area, supported by net leases that provide guaranteed income growth.
Michael Hedger, CBRE’s Queensland State Director of Retail, commented: “The Wharf is poised for significant future growth, being advantageously located in the Sunshine Coast, a globally recognised tourism destination that welcomes more than 4.34 million domestic and international visitors annually.”
National Director of Hotels at CBRE, Wayne Bunz, said: “Waterfront freehold assets of this calibre on Australia’s east coast remain incredibly scarce. When we talk about landmark investments, this is precisely what we mean. The Wharf is the kind of generational opportunity that draws the attention of both institutional and private capital, it’s a magnet for lifestyle, leisure and commerce, with enduring value on every level.”
Expressions of interest for The Wharf Mooloolaba close on 2 October 2025, unless sold prior.
