These characteristics provide a strong foundation for redevelopment or refurbishment into a high-quality Costa Coffee outlet with customer parking and efficient servicing. The site's existing roadside retail use, together with its established commercial setting, enhances its suitability for a national coffee operator, subject to the necessary planning approvals and Costa's operational requirements. The surrounding mix of residential neighbourhoods, retail destinations and employment centres creates a broad customer catchment throughout the day.
