AFFORDABLE AND ATTRACTIVE
COMMERCIAL SPACES TO RENT IN
DOWNSVILLE'S FAMOUS OLD
CREAMERY BUILDING
There is hardly a more prestigious address in all
of Dunn County than that of The Creamery in
Downsville. Located just a few miles south of
Menomonie, this beautiful historic building
was the phenomenally successful home of
The Creamery Restaurant and Inn for over
twenty-five years.
Restaurant
This unit consists of the original Creamery diningroom (capacity 68) and the kitchen plus ancillary
storage rooms needed to serve this business.
Because of the outstanding reputation that
The Creamery enjoyed as the perfect place to
dine and relax, it's obvious that one part of the
building should emulate this glorious past.
Just recently the overall space has been
transformed to accommodate the needs of a small
collection of self-contained individual businesses.
Regardless as to what type of dining experience
a new operator wants to provide, the historic
associations of the building, with good food,
should quickly help to build awareness for any
food enterprise trading from this part of the
old Creamery.
Thanks to a very modest amount of
remodelling, none of the spatial elegance
of the original building has been lost in the
reconfiguration process.
The new business units have the benefit of rural
peace and quiet plus some sensational views.
There are a number of different types of business
that could thrive in this multi-tenanted
community. These include the following:

Guestrooms
For Bed & Breakfast or
Self-contained Apartments
The Creamery contains four spacious bedrooms
with sensationally equipped bathrooms including
Jacuzzi style tubs. These guestrooms could be
operated as part of the restaurant tenancy or as a
completely separate venture.
An additional area exists on the second floor,
where the guestrooms are located, that could be
used as a common-room/dining area for
overnight guests or as living accommodation for
a bed and breakfast operator.

These same four guestrooms are also suitable for
a host of other business uses besides the ones
described above.
As an example, if an office is needed, any one of
the four rooms could comfortably provide exactly
the amount of space you require. They'd be
perfect as private professional spaces for health
or educational related purposes too.
Equally, these rooms could serve as ideal studios
for artists, jewelers, makers of textiles or
other crafts.
The carpeted units vary in size from 370 Sq Feet 640 Sq Feet. They all enjoy quite stunning
southern exposures.

Retail - Shop Units
The Old Creamery Lounge
Two specific parts of the building have been
earmarked as being perfect for retail/shop activity.
The first of these spaces, The Old Creamery
Lounge, is located immediately opposite the
main public entrance to the building and is right
next door to the restaurant dining room.
It has one wall of floor to ceiling windows that
face south-east and supply ample amounts of
natural light to the unit. The space is also fitted
with parquet flooring and has an open fireplace.
Description Square Footage
The space would suit a lot of different retail
formats including gifts, fashion, crafts, furniture,
antiques, sporting goods and many more.

Industrial Heritage Area
The second space that is also ideal for retail is
situated in the old industrial heart of the building.
This unit is accessed from its own private
entrance on the north side of the building as well
as via an entrance
off the central foyer.
Historically, this
west-side of the
building housed the
Creamery's bakery,
gift shop and
pottery.
It's a large area that
measures over 1,800

Previous operators have also used this part of the
building for a small café area, with a limited
snacks, drinks and desserts menu provided from
the main kitchen.
Its potential as a business serving the needs of the
Red Cedar Trail and aimed at cyclists and crosscountry skiers is also extremely attractive.

Light Manufacturing or
Production Units
The west end (Industrial Heritage Area) of the
building, as noted above, could also be used
as a production facility for a light
manufacturing business.
It would easily support food-related companies
who want to have a public-facing element to
their businesses.
Examples of this might include, a microbrewery,
a cheese-maker, a confectioner, a baker or
maybe a purveyor of jams & preserves.
The making of products could be supplemented
with the opportunity to sell your goods directly
to the public.
Other light industrial uses that could combine
manufacturing with direct sales might be
businesses such as picture-framing, woodworking, sign-writing or upholstery.
Lease and rent data are as described under
Retail - Shop Units - Industrial Heritage Area
Gallery
The double-height foyer which forms the
entrance to The Creamery is available as a public
gallery space.
The existing walls offer a superb display area for
larger works of art and with the introduction of
portable exhibition stands and lockable glass
cases, a wide range of goods could be sold from
this area.
The foyer will also serve as a congregating
communal space for restaurant customers
and so should offer a steady flow of traffic in
addition to what the gallery operator would
generate themselves.

Basic Terms and Conditions
Leases - All the units will be rented using a lease contract with a
minimum term of between one - three years. The landlord and the
tenant will be responsible for covering their own individual legal
costs associated with the enactment of the contract.
Lease Deposit - All tenants will be required to pay a lease deposit to
the landlord prior to triggering the start of the legal process. This
deposit will cover the landlord's legal costs should the prospective
tenant fail to enter into the contract. In the case of default, the
tenant will forfeit their deposit. If the contract is completed as
agreed, the deposit with be returned in full to the tenant. This
deposit is a fixed fee of $1,000.
Common Area Management Charges (CAM) - CAM - Common
Area Management Charges include a proportional amount of
maintenance, cleaning, landscaping, insurance, property taxes
along with certain unmetered utility costs.
Security Deposit - At the time when the lease comes into force, the
tenant will provide a security deposit with the landlord equivalent to
three months rent. This deposit will be retained until the end of the
lease. If on completion of the lease term, the tenant has no rent
arrears or outstanding CAM charge and vacates the property leaving
it in the exactly the same condition as when they moved-in, the
entire deposit will be refunded to them within 30 days of the
termination date. If any rent is owed or other expenses, the landlord
will retain sufficient funds from the security deposit to cover these
costs. If the unit which the tenant has rented is not left in the same
condition as when the lease began, the landlord will draw upon the
security deposit to renovate the unit accordingly. A refund of any of
the remaining security deposit will be made once these conditions
have been fulfilled.
Signage - The landlord will provide a sufficiently large lawn sign
that promotes all of the businesses based in The Creamery. An
additional piece of signage will be placed at the entrance to the
building indicating which businesses are based in the building.
Individual business owners will be permitted to display their own
signage at the entrances to their units. This could be in the form of
a glass transfer or a wall-mounted signboard. Such signage will have
to be approved by the landlord.
PLEASE NOTE - It is important to note that many of the photographs
used in this leaflet were taken to illustrate how the inn appeared several
years ago. All furnishings have been removed from the building so a
new operator will have a completely unencumbered space in which to
create their own offer. Kitchen infrastructure including, exhaust fans,
work surfaces and walk-in cooler are all still in place.
