The restaurant, bar and entertainment venue Wellers of Kangaroo Ground, at the gateway to Victoria's Yarra Valley, has been sold.

Fitzroys, in conjunction with local agency Morrison Kleeman, secured $1.675 million.

The 8,760 square metre property was sold with a new 10-year lease to Wellers, which dates back to 1872.

The property returns $145,000 per annum net, with the price paid reflecting a yield of 8.6%.

Fitzroy selling agent Dean Alexander, a local resident, said interest from the property came from overseas buyers. However, the purchaser was a consortium of local investors.
