PARTICULARS
We are very pleased to be appointed to bring to the market this long established and well thought of traditional butchers shop situated in the heart of this rapidly growing and sought after village set just on the outskirts of Norwich.
This is an ideal opportunity for an existing butcher who is looking to branch out on their own and would suit either an individual or a family team. Previous experience is not though entirely necessary as the existing owner would be willing to stay on in the business for an agreed period of time to provide full training for someone new if needed.
THE BUSINESS ITSELF
The current owner took over the business nearly 30 years ago however the butchers had been established many years previously and so is very well known locally. It continues to show strong and consistent levels of turnover and profit for a business of this size and provides a stable income for the owner.
In addition to the traditional sale of local meat products, the business stocks and sells a range of deli style goods such as fresh fruit, veg, milk, groceries and dry goods as well as having fresh fish delivered twice a week. The business also offers a local delivery service to Hethersett and the surrounding villages to assist those customers that are unable to access the shop themselves.
PREMISES
ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROXIMATE AND FOR GUIDANCE ONLY.
The business premises are freehold and owned by the vendor and are included as part of the asking price. The shop was originally in the building in front which is now occupied by Boots however the vendor had the opportunity approximately 16 years ago to acquire the land behind to enable them to build their own store.
The alarmed shop is accessed via the driveway which forms part of the title to the property. The entrance door leads into the retail area (c. 6.9 x 3.5m) with a recently acquired new refrigerated display unit and service counter and new till and scales behind. In addition in the retail area there is a chest freezer for frozen goods for sale, wooden shelving units for deli goods, further fridge unit for milk and cold fresh produce and a further counter unit with meat slicer and scales and hand sink behind.
Through to the preparation room (c. 6.9 x 3.7m) and you will find a large wooden cutting table, a chest freezer, upright freezer, mincer and rotar bowl, a new labelling machine, stainless steel double under-counter fridge with stainless steel work surface above, Zanussi oven, hob and grill, and an electric sausage filler. There is a good size walk in fridge, a door into a staff cloakroom/w.c and a roller door to the side driveway. Non-slip flooring can be found throughout.
Externally to the rear is a recently acquired piece of land from the neighbouring property. Whilst the vendor is currently using this land to grow vegetables on, it could be used for various different purposes or perhaps even to extend the building out, subject to any consents that may be required.
There are also solar panels on the roof which provide an income of c. £400 per annum as well as helping contribute towards the energy costs of the business.
