The venue will be closed and the land, covering 33 Yawla Street and 32-46 Huntley Road in Bentleigh, will be redeveloped for residential use.
The Maddocks team on the matter was Development partner Bettina Sheeran and senior associate Alexandra Yorston.
Bettina said Maddocks was pleased to advise Metro Property Developments on its latest strategic purchase.
