After selling Armidale’s Railway Hotel to the Roche Group last July – Charlie Redmond has invested part of the proceeds on Coffs Harbour’s Coast Hotel, about 140 kilometres away.

The off-market deal for the leasehold to the double storey pub at 2 Moonee Street is worth $2.8 million.

There are 17 years left to run.

Mr Redmond is speculated to have banked more than $5m for the Railway Hotel following another off-market deal, but brokered by HTL Property (story continues below).

The Coffs Harbour site spreads 1600 square metres, at the V-intersection with Grafton St, the region’s main commercial thoroughfare.

The asset includes two bars – one on each floor – a beer garden, bistro and gaming room with 15 electronic gambling machines.

It is also licensed to trade late on weekends – 1am on Fridays, and 2am Saturday.

Coffs Harbour – the state’s seven largest regional centre – is 435 kilometres north of Sydney or 530km to drive.
