Description
A wonderfully located kennel business with a luxury detached three-bedroom property and one bedroom annex which is successfully owner operated with part time assistance when required. Licensed for 50 dogs, pens are either single, double, family or many larger pens, all set-in extensive grounds benefitting from stunning rural views. There is also a dedicated animal grooming building with up-to-date equipment, not currently used by the owners. Set in approx. 2 acres of grounds / open field space which is ideal for the dogs, with several outbuildings and two separate entrances to the site, this business is only being placed onto the open market due to retirement. This business is turning over more than £120,000 profit per year.
LOCATION
The property is set in incredibly beautiful countryside on the outskirts of Barnstaple, North Devon in an area called South Molton. Within a short drive are all main amenities and the area is serviced well by road links from the M5 motorway linking the Atlantic highway and only minutes' drive from the large sought-after seaside towns of Bideford & Barnstaple.
BUSINESS
Trelawn kennels have been successfully owner operated with part time assistance for many years and is registered for 50 dogs. The business has continually been awarded prizes for the quality and service given to their animals and the premises comes with 30 kennels, several exercise yards & field, reception building, dog grooming building, isolation pen & yard, outbuildings with additional pens for the owner's dogs and workshop / double garage. The business has earnt itself a fine reputation and draws upon a huge client base throughout the South West. Whilst it has a grooming parlour, it is not currently being used and because of retirement, the owners have deliberately scaled back to suit their lifestyle. Because of this and plot size, there is tremendous scope to expand on the already impressive income, with a net profit of over £80,000 per year. Actual trading accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
