Property specialists Stonesmith delighted to have sold this thriving and extremely well regarded daytime only cafe and coffee shop. Becketts Coffee House occupies a lucrative prime trading location with a visible frontage within the main High Street in the much sought after and highly regarded coastal town of Sidmouth, probably one of the busiest tourist locations within East Devon.

Presented to a high standard throughout, Becketts Coffee House offers potential for incoming operators to purchase an attractive and sought after business with the benefit of a self-contained 2 bedroom owners apartment above. The business enjoys an excellent reputation with both locals and visitors alike, and the premises have been purposefully fitted and equipped to a high standard throughout with a modern contemporary feel. The attractive premises briefly comprise:- Main Cafe Area comfortably seating 74 customers; substantial Customer Servery Area; separate Preparation Kitchen Area; Self-Contained Owners Apartment with 2 Double Bedrooms, Sitting Room, Kitchen and Bathroom.

The business boasts excellent levels of regular year round trade and benefits from a lucrative and prominent trading position in the town centre, adjacent to numerous complementary businesses and close to the main seafront. Through personal choice, our client, a single working proprietor, trades the business on a daytime only basis as a cafe and coffee shop offering a selection of hot and cold beverages, as well as a simple and easy to prepare menu of sandwiches, snacks, cakes, and the popular Devon Cream Tea. The business offers both eat in and takeaway options. Our client has recently refurbished the premises, and consequently the business is well presented throughout. Our client advises that there is potential to increase the current trade levels with an opportunity for further advertising and marketing, including the development of a website. There is also the opportunity to extend the current opening hours, particularly by opening through the evenings and to extend the current menu choices and develop a bistro style menu in the evenings, if so desired.

The leasehold business opportunity was sold off an asking price of £99,995. Full property details are available from the website www.stonesmith.co.uk and viewings arranged by calling 01392 201262.
