Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a family owned and operated butchers, which has been passed down from one generation the next and run by our clients for over 32-years.
It is ideally positioned on the outskirts of the town centre and benefits from being within the heart of a residential housing estate.
The business occupies the ground floor, with further storage and chiller areas to the rear, alongside access to the residential property. This opportunity comes with a three bedroom house, located directly next door.
Situated within the heart of a residential housing estate on the outskirts of Ipswich town centre, Debman’s butchers is located on Cliff Lane itself.
The butchers sits within a shopping parade, which includes various other businesses and benefits from being on a main road with high visibility.
The location is primarily accessed by the A14 and A12 leading south, towards Essex and London and north, towards Bury St. Edmunds.
The butchers has a mainly open plan sales area of approximately 280 sq./ft (26sq/m) and is fitted and equipped for the sale of fresh meat goods, including chilled and frozen products.
The main sales till is located at the front of the store, with additional under counter displays. There is also a meat preparation area, chiller and walk in freezer located to the rear, with further access to the rear garden and residential property.
