After serving the Lake Grace and surrounding communities since 1978, it is time for the location formally known as Maalouf Ford, to find its new owner.
The Maalouf Ford Dealership operated from July 1978 to December 2022 after being purchased from the Lake Grace Co-op, who established a mechanical workshop on the site in 1961, and the site became a Ford Dealership in 1966.
The property currently operates as a licenced car yard (minus the Ford Dealership) and continues to provide service to the community through vehicle servicing, windscreen repair and replacement, and it is the local RAC service provider.
For the first time in nearly 47 years this location is being offered for sale via private treaty.
The physical property is being offered for sale, inclusive of all of the equipment and stock. Please note that the business is being traded out, and will not be sold with the physical property.
This is your opportunity to purchase a functioning commercial location including all stock and tools needed to continue as a mechanical repair, used car sales and windscreen replacement business. The RAC licence is not sold with the physical property, however the opportunity to apply to operate that service, would be available. The registered car yard licence is also not transferable and would need to be applied for.
The owners are open to selling the property to another type of trade without the stock and machinery, at a price to be negotiated with the owners via offer and acceptance.
