A PIECE of Mandurah history has the chance at a new lease on life after a local businessman has taken it into his hands.
Paul Lance bought Sutton Farm early last month with the plans to lease it out as a restaurant, wine bar or coffee house, turn the barn into an art studio and add eight to 10 finger jetties in the canal adjacent.
“It’s the largest piece of land on the waterfront,” he said.
“It’s a really pretty, unique property and one of a kind.”
He said the three- and three-quarter acreage will continue to play host wedding photography and may even be a place to hold wedding receptions in the future.
Currently Mr Lance is looking for input from the community for the development of the farmhouse, barn and living quarters.
