Description

LOCATION
Braunton is a popular place to live, work and visit, and as such has a lively atmosphere all year round. Though it has a distinct village atmosphere and strong community, its permanent population of around 8,000 helps support a variety of quality restaurants, pubs and shops. Braunton's own natural beauty and proximity to North Devon's beaches and countryside makes it popular with tourists too: Saunton (2 miles), Croyde (4 miles), Woolacombe (5 miles), Ilfracombe (7 miles) and Exmoor (7 miles) are nearby, as is North Devon's commercial centre of Barnstaple (5 miles), and all are reachable by bus. The current Local Plan allows for around 400 new dwellings in the area, along with serviced employment land, key community infrastructure and improved traffic management.

THE SITUATION
The unit is situated on South Street just off the busy village Square. The subject premises are adjacent to retail and office users with other occupiers in the immediate vicinity including Co-Op Supermarket as well as leisure operators including a Public House and a wine bar / bistro.

ACCOMMODATION
The main building is of two storey construction with ground floor frontage and rendered elevations above, all under a pitched slate roof. The ground floor provides take-away servery, with fitted frying range and a 40 cover restaurant area which also provides access to the rear garden making it suitable for further covers if desired.

To the side of the property is a yard area which provides self-contained access to the upper floor accommodation which consists of two bedrooms, shower room, kitchen and lounge / diner all of which benefits from central heating and double glazing. The accommodation is currently let and is equally suitable for owners' accommodation or additional rental income.

THE PROPOSAL
Our clients are inviting offers for the Leasehold interest and an assignment of their existing lease. Currently the rent is £14,700 pa for the whole building including the accommodation which our client's currently let for £9,600 pa.

THE BUSINESS

About JD Commercial, Devon

42 Ridgeway Drive, Westward Ho, EX39 1TW

Having experience in Commercial Estate Agency since 1996, the company JD Commercial is headed up by James Doble who during his time in the Commercial market has established the importance of service in achieving successful results.

Whether it is the sale of a Leisure Property such as a Hotel or Tea Room to a private buyer, or the letting of a High Street Retail Unit to a plc, the importance of communication between all parties involved in the transaction is key. This is all brought together through JD Commercial. After all, once a purchaser is found this is often where the hard work begins.

Having the understanding that not only a purchaser's solicitor will be instructed at the point of sale, but often a Surveyor / Valuer, Bank Manager and Accountant means that we have the understanding of what is required from each party. Knowing exactly at what stage a transaction is means unnecessary costs and time delays can be avoided, as well as both vendor and purchaser experiencing a smooth transaction.

Being 100% dedicated to the Commercial Property market we do not split our time between Commercial and Residential property and as such all of our time and marketing is aimed at the Commercial sector. With our wealth of experience we have certainly noticed a change, over the years, of the ways and formats of achieving interest in property and can offer traditional or more contemporary solutions on how to market a property.

We deal with all types of Business Premises and Commercial Property throughout Devon, Cornwall and Somerset, of which they can generally be split into two sectors:- Hospitality Trade / Business Transfer and Commercial Business Property.

Hospitality Trade and Business Transfer:

Hotels / Guest Houses / Guest Accommodation and Bed & Breakfast

Public Houses / Inns, free of tie and tied

Self Catering Complexes / Camping and Caravan Sites

Catering Trade from Tea Rooms to Sandwich Bars

Business Transfer, lock up or with accommodation, such as Post Offices and Convenience Stores
