A rare opportunity to acquire a freehold guest house in an outstanding position close to Weymouth beach, harbour and town centre, offering sea and harbour views and flexible accommodation.
This most attractive period property dates from around 1850 and is situated within a conservation area. The guest house provides six letting bedrooms, all with their own facilities, including a rare ground floor letting bedroom which adds flexibility and broadens guest appeal.
The owner’s accommodation comprises a private one bedroom suite with a sea view lounge, providing comfortable and appealing living space. Additional features include a front facing breakfast room, gas fired central heating, cellar storage and a pretty enclosed courtyard garden.
The accommodation layout is flexible and would suit a range of operating styles, from seasonal trading to extended opening periods.
The Business
A well regarded bed and breakfast which has been in the same ownership since 2008 and is now offered for sale due to retirement. The business is operated by a husband and wife team and currently trades predominantly during the summer months, typically advertising four of the six letting bedrooms.
Informed turnover averages between £50,000 and £60,000 per annum, depending on the length of the trading season. There is clear scope for new owners to increase turnover by extending the opening period, utilising all letting rooms and adjusting tariffs to reflect the prime location and views.
