Seafront Guest House in East Sussex Resort For Sale in St Leonards on Sea- Business 4 Sale .co.uk

Business Summary

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this popular guest house, which was established by our clients in 1990 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business occupies 4-storey Grade II listed premises, which was built in the 1830s, and has 7-letting rooms and a large dining room to accommodate approximately 16-covers. The owners' accommodation is situated on the lower ground floor. In recent years the property has been extensively refurbished, including new double glazed sash windows to front, new canopy and railings on balcony, roof re-slated and re-leaded, front door and basement door replaced, building re-wired and new fuseboxs fitted. The property also benefits from a new illuminated sign to the front and a CCTV system monitoring the exterior, front door and hallway. An extensive fire alarm system incorporating hard-wired smoke alarms to each room with a central control box in the hallway is installed. There is also full central heating with thermostatically controlled radiators. A website is in place, which provides information about facilities, location and contact details. Our clients have gained an excellent reputation and a loyal customer base by offering competitive rates, good quality breakfasts, as well as a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. We are advised by our clients that they receive regular business from contractors working in the area. The business trades at a pace that suits our clients and generates a turnover in the region of £26,000 per annum. We feel that turnover could be increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and perhaps developing the website to include on-line booking. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a well-maintained guest house, which is in a walk-in-and-trade condition, with scope to develop further. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
