Avenue Road, Torquay, Devon, TQ2

A beautifully presented, easily operated, 6 x en-suite bedroom guest house only a short walk to the town centre and seafront of Torquay. Featuring flexible ground floor two-bedroom owners' accommodation comprising of 2 x double bedrooms, separate lounge, dressing room and private garden. This turn-key business has recently undergone a rolling refurbishment programme to ensure that it is presented in a high decorative order. It includes good parking to the front of the property and a large, enclosed courtyard/garden to the rear with a sunroom/workshop building and ample space for tables and chairs. Early viewings are highly recommended.

LOCATION
The Cranmore Guest House is situated in an ideal location in Torquay, as it takes advantage of the high passing tourist/commercial traffic by being only minutes' walk away from the main beach, harbour and shopping area. Also, being conveniently situated close to both the local railway station, bus station and main arterial roads which links the city of Plymouth and the Cathedral city of Exeter, with its world-renowned University and International airport.

BUSINESS
The owners have traded successfully for many years and are very proud to have achieved high levels of repeat business year-on-year. The Cranmore Guest House has the benefit of extensive double-glazing and business rate exemptions together with 6 high quality bedrooms which can easily be serviced by a couple without the need of any staff. Current owners are trading approx. seven months per year because of lifestyle choice, however we, the agents, feel that the turnover could be improved by opening for longer during the low season, improved advertising and better use of social media. Full accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
