Property Information

Property:

Freehold

Living Accommodation:

Quaint period property with stunning uninterrupted views of the Devon countryside and glimpses of distant rugged Dartmoor.
The property itself is an attractive three-bedroom period cottage: freshly painted in an apt Devonshire clotted cream colour, with a slate tiled roof. The cottage has been recently modernised and provides spacious and well-presented family accommodation in immaculate order throughout.

Location:

Nestled in a quiet country lane on the outskirts of Brixton village with all the amenities you could wish; including a cosy pub, fish and chip shop and post office. Offering the best of both worlds, it’s situated just five miles outside Plymouth city centre and local white, sandy beaches are less than four miles away.

Premises Details:

Established cattery business licensed for sixty cats.

Planning Consent:

N/A

Expansion Potential:

There's plenty of opportunity for expansion, with pens deemed derelict by the current owners that can be rebuilt. There is enough land to justify further expansion and plenty of housing nearby to satisfy that custom.

Competition / Market:

The local competition are very small catteries with a minimal amount of pens. In comparison, Pippins has the monolopy over these businesses, complimented by a five-star rating from its licencing body, South Hams Council.

Reasons for selling:

After seventeen wonderful years of owning Pippins, we're now ready to retire.

Trading hours:

Mondays to Saturdays with staggered opening hours: 10am - 12pm & 4pm - 5.30pm - allowing time for the owners to have time for themselves. The cattery is closed on Sundays and Bank Holidays.

Employees:
3
Years established:
1960
