A tourist caravan/cabin park in the Queensland outback town of Chincilla, Australia's melon capital, is being offered to the market.

The four-star Chinchilla Tourist Park - the town's only one - comprises 105 sites consisting of 70 cabins and 35 caravan sites.

Built and opened in April 2013, the park has received development approval for inclusion of a relocatable home park.

CBRE’s Andrew Jackson has been appointed to sell the freehold going concern.

“As the only caravan/cabin park in Chinchilla, this property offers an advantage in the local tourism market, in addition to an opportunity for a new owner to attract permanent residents at an extremely reasonable entry cost,” Jackson said.

Presented as 'new', the tourist park provides tax depreciation benefits and minimal capex requirements in the short to medium term, he added.

The Chinchilla Tourist Park is nearly 300 km from Brisbane and offers a range of accommodation and facilities. The park also includes a three-bedroom manager’s residence, in addition to a staff residence on a separate title.

Jackson said the park, which had a turnover of nearly $6 million in its first year, was now being offered to the market in line with the owner’s plans to sell upon its establishment.
