This substantial freehold town centre property offers 2,600 square feet of space. The current layout is a 50 cover tearoom & associated facilities with 4 bedroom 4 bathroom domestic accommodation. Planning permission (subject to installation of a fire
escape) has been granted for a Bed & Breakfast
DESCRIPTION
This Grade Two Listed building was fully renovated in 2003 - 2004. This means that the roof, all electrics, plumbing, central heating etc are no more than 4 - 6 years old. Before closure (retirement) in August 2009 the tearooms operated for 2.5
years on the very short hours of 10.00 am to 4.30pm Tuesdays to Saturdays, thus keeping under the VAT threshold. So the potential of weekend/Bank Holiday trade of this popular tourist town, together with midnight licensing hours, was not fully exploited. This
potential is now expanded as planning permission (subject to the installation of a fire escape) has been grained for Bed & Breakfast trade.
The extensive domestic accommodation would be ideal for family life or for several working partners.
