Buy into Glebe’s latte-sippers: The Wedge Espresso premises hits market

Café 53 to 55 Glebe Point Road in Glebe is up for sale, offering investors the opportunity to purchase a slice of Glebe’s coffee-sipping inner-city crowd.

Tenant The Wedge Espresso, is on a new 7 + 5 year lease, commencing from the 1st June 2014, and the building is just three years old.

The net income for the building is $52,000, with 3.5% annual increases.

It’s opposite Glebe markets, a busy location for locals, and despite its location being on Glebe Point Road it is shaped in such a way that it’s of a long-thin rectangular shape, with much of it opened up by large windows with benches inside, overlooking the footpath of Cowper Street. The front door is also on Cowper Street.

Marketed through Deans Property, the site is asking for $849,000, with the building covering 59 square metres.

It has a gorgeous fit-out at present, with corrugated-iron style back walls and feature art, menus on brown clipboards and small tables with plants in tin buckets and sugar in jam jars.

The café was established in October 2011.

When Property Observer visited last year, it was said to be some of the best coffee in Glebe, and was busy enough to suggest that other people believed the same. The only rivals it may have are Badde Manors and Clipper Café.
