Fish Junction occupies a prominent position on Seaside Lane in Easington Colliery, County Durham, serving a well-established residential catchment area and benefiting from regular local trade. Easington Colliery is a popular coastal village situated approximately 10 miles east of Durham City and 7 miles south of Sunderland, with excellent road connections via the A19 providing easy access throughout the North East region.
The property is located close to local amenities, schools and community facilities, with nearby attractions including the Durham Heritage Coast and Hawthorn Dene Nature Reserve. The surrounding area comprises a mixture of residential housing and local businesses, generating consistent footfall and takeaway demand. The business benefits from its convenient position within the village, serving both local residents and passing trade.
Description
An excellent opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished and highly equipped takeaway business together with a substantial self-contained residential maisonette above, occupying a prominent corner position within Easington Colliery. The property comprises a three-storey end-terrace building beneath a pitched slate roof. The ground floor operates as the established Fish Junction takeaway and has undergone a comprehensive refurbishment programme by the current owner following acquisition in April 2024, before reopening for trade in April 2025.
The takeaway is presented to a high standard throughout and includes a customer service area, food preparation area, dedicated potato room, storage facilities and external WC accommodation. The business is offered with an extensive range of commercial catering equipment, including a Martyn Edwards 3-pan gas frying range, Lincoln conveyor gas pizza oven, refrigeration units, preparation stations, extraction systems and ancillary catering equipment. A full inventory of fixtures, fittings and equipment can be made available upon request. The upper floors comprise a spacious self-contained maisonette with separate access, arranged over the first and second floors.
The accommodation includes a kitchen, lounge, two bedrooms and bathroom, providing either owner-occupier accommodation or an additional rental income opportunity. The current owner is offering the business and property for sale solely to enable him to concentrate on another business interest located in a different town.
