The stunning Jurassic Coast is a designated World Heritage Site and the whole locality is within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

DESCRIPTION

A superb and rare opportunity to purchase a thriving bed and breakfast business just a few minutes walk of the beach at Charmouth. Having been carefully and extensively refurbished by the current owners five years ago, the property now offers immaculate accommodation throughout with 8 ensuite letting bedrooms decorated to the highest standard as well as private owner accommodation on site. Proving popular with families and couples wanting to escape to the coast, there is ample opportunity for income growth in excess of the current turnover of £200,000. The sale of the business includes the freehold interest and future bookings which are ongoing. Worthy of note is the years of care and attention which have been poured into this property to create a modern and comfortable setting for guests in a highly sought after Jurassic Coast location. It is difficult to find properties of this nature which require no refurbishment with an active, established trading business.

ACCOMMODATION

There are eight letting bedrooms, all ensuite and immaculately presented with up to date bathrooms and decoration. A state of the art 5 star rated commercial kitchen has all the necessary cooking equipment to produce meals for the 20 covers in the dining room, which is conveniently positioned next door. The current owners serve breakfast only, and there is potential to increase turnover by offering lunch and dinner. The restaurant is fully licensed to serve alcohol already. A comfortable and spacious guest area has an honesty bar and comfortable seating areas for guests to enjoy in the guest lounge with a WC. There is a useful laundry room on the ground floor for washing and drying.

The private owners accommodation is thoughtfully separated from the guest areas with it's own front door and entrance and garden. A beautifully designed kitchen dining room overlooks the gardens in complete privacy, whilst the large sitting room enjoys double doors to the rear patio. The two double bedrooms both have ensuite bathrooms and are decorated to the highest standard. There is a separate WC and office space as well as a useful store.

Outside is a large car park with ample spaces for guests and owners to park.

The property also has an external storage building for maintenance supplies, tools and equipment.

There is a shared accessway within the ownership of Hensleigh House which provides access to a separately owned bungalow to the rear.
