The property’s versatility is its greatest strength. While currently operating as a restaurant, its spacious, open-plan layout could support numerous hospitality concepts. The additional assets – a substantial bar area, charming courtyard garden, and upstairs function room – create multiple revenue stream possibilities that many standalone venues simply cannot offer.
The included residential accommodation (3-bedroom flat) represents significant added value, allowing an owner-operator to eliminate personal housing costs during the critical early business development phase.
While the location requires proactive marketing, this is balanced by several factors:
In my assessment, this represents an ideal opportunity for an experienced hospitality professional looking to establish their own distinctive venue.
