Paul Hubbard Commercial are proud to present a successful, fully-fitted and highly reputable fish and chip shop in the sought after seaside location of Heacham, Norfolk.
Run successfully by the same owners for almost 20 years, this is a rare opportunity which has arisen due to retirement. The current owners are seeking a buyer who can take on this beautiful property and continue the success they have experienced since they purchased it.
As well as the fish and chip shop, the property includes a spacious, modern, 3-bedroom apartment with a beautiful, well-maintained and secluded private garden to the rear, allowing the new owners to sit back, relax and unwind after a long day serving the hungry locals and tourists of Heacham.
With a huge array of camping sites, caravan parks and holiday lets, Heacham is incredibly busy throughout the summer months. The village started to become popular as a seaside destination over 150 years ago, and to this day people travel from all around the country to enjoy all it has to offer.
The north Beach has an amusement arcade, a café and beach huts for hire, and the South Beach has its own café, gift shop and a range of other facilities and amenities for both tourists and locals to enjoy.
The village also has three pubs, The West Norfolk, The Fox & Hounds and The Bushel & Strike, so there is plenty for visitors to do throughout their stay.
The property is immediately available both as a freehold purchase, with an asking price of £425,000, or a leasehold purchase, with an initial asking price of £90,000 and an annual rent of £18,000.
All fixtures and fittings for the shop are included in the sale, and accounts information is available upon request.
