Tower House 26 The Strand 2,343 SF 100% Leased Office Building Bideford EX39 2ND $474,834 ($202.66/SF)

This Grade II listed, 18th Century former Sea Merchant’s residence has long been established for the past 50 years as a profitable Bed and Breakfast and has created an excellent reputation with frequent repeat trade amongst its paying guests.

Under the personal supervision of the owners, a husband and wife team, the business operates with access to major online travel portals and this is a genuine retirement sale. This is a working business with trade already booked well into the summer months with accounts made available to serious buyers.

Since ownership the property has continuously undergone general maintenance, as well as a new kitchen, bathrooms and en-suites to five of the six bedrooms. The property itself offers deceptively spacious accommodation over three levels with a private living room, large breakfast kitchen and dining room.

The ground floor comprises of a kitchen / breakfast room, dining room which is fully presented for breakfast diners , downstairs cloakroom and a private living room.

The first-floor level is allocated solely to paying guests where you will find three of the six bedrooms. All bedrooms are large doubles and all enjoy their own bathroom or en-suite.

The second floor features a larger family room consisting of two bedrooms and a shower room as well as the owner’s bedroom with en-suite. Presented in good decorative order throughout five of the bedrooms face towards the bowling green whilst the sixth, comfortable, king size with en-suite overlooks the south facing garden. The sale is to include all trade fixtures, fittings and equipment subject to separate negotiation.

A wrought iron gate leads to the front garden being mainly paved with a pretty patio, planting and shingled areas enclosed by the front boundary wall. A covered storm porch with external advertising sign is also featured.

The rear of the property faces south and offers a private, enclosed courtyard with covered veranda, ideal for entertaining or al-fresco dining and benefits from the summer sun all day long.

We believe that aside from the current business this property would also make an excellent example of a shared accommodation premises, house of multiple occupancy or large family home.
