Sands Road, Paignton, Torbay

A wonderfully positioned 12 x ensuite bedroom Guest House for sale, together with a 2 x bedroom ground floor Granny annexe and a spacious 3 x bedroom owners’ accommodation, large parking facility to the front and rear, and only a stone’s throw from the seafront. Due to its size, this detached property offers huge opportunities to complement with self-catering Airbnb, holiday units, and many other alternative uses. Three Palms has been owner-operated for many years, only for a short period of 7-8 months per year due to lifestyle choices. Currently the owners operate room only with breakfast at an additional charge. All guest rooms and public areas are decorated to a high standard, and the property is being placed on the market as the owners are moving overseas.


LOCATION

The Three Palms is situated in a prime trading position within the bustling coastal town of Paignton, Devon. It occupies a sought-after area on Queens Road, only minutes away from the beach, harbour, town centre, rail and bus stations. The guest house is also conveniently located a short drive away from the cities of Plymouth and Exeter, with their M5 motorway and international airport. Additionally, Torquay is just minutes away, and slightly further afield is Dartmoor National Park.

BUSINESS

This highly profitable business has been successfully owner-operated for many years and benefits from a high rate of repeat custom. It is well-liked by both visitors and locals alike. The business currently trades for 7-8 months per year due to lifestyle choices, but the agents believe there is great scope to improve upon the already impressive turnover and subsequent net profit. Actual trading figures will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
