Description

Description

FChristie & Co are delighted to bring to market Sefton Meadows Garden Centre in Maghull, Liverpool. Sefton Meadows is a recently modernised family run garden centre set on a 2.25 acre site located to the North of Liverpool. This thriving business sees loyal customers visiting year after year and is well known for its plant and garden related products, giftware range, clothing and spectacular Christmas collection and grotto. The Centre also benefits from a popular 160 cover onsite restaurant and well-designed website producing a high level of online sales.

Location

Maghull is a thriving town within the parish of Sefton, Merseyside, located approximately 7 miles northeast of Liverpool city centre, with Aintree to the south. It is separated from the Greater Liverpool area by designated Greenbelt land. The business benefits from excellent transport links, with convenient access to the M58 and just a short drive from the A59. Situated on the edge of town, it enjoys high visibility and footfall, further enhanced by its proximity to a busy industrial estate that generates significant passing trade.

The Opportunity

Sefton Meadows is a professionally managed, familyowned site that is maintained to an exceptional standard. The garden centre presents an excellent opportunity for a multi-site operator to introduce their brand and business model to a well-positioned location, or for a local independent to acquire a highly profitable centre with clear potential for additional concessions. The site comprises two distinct buildings - one housing the garden centre and the other home to Rosie’s Restaurant. Adjacent to the restaurant is a spacious outdoor area with ample seating, perfect for al fresco dining. The indoor retail area features a diverse selection of horticultural goods, homeware, gifts, clothing, garden furniture, barbecues, hardware, and decorative water features. A standout attraction is the impressive Christmas display, which includes a large multi-room grotto. Additionally, a dedicated events room hosts seasonal activities, such as the highly popular and profitable virtual reality sleigh ride." The outdoor display area features a selection of shrubs, bedding plants, and perennials, all showcased beneath a newly installed canopy equipped with lighting and an integrated irrigation system.

Staff

The business is family owned and managed along with an experienced and dedicated team of employees. Full details can be made available to interested parties.
