Property description & features

  • Long established business with excellent potential for growth and expansion
  • Prime character premises available on a freehold basis
  • Fully equipped and stocked to operate immediately
  • Only available due to the owner's retirement
  • A viewing is essential to appreciate the opportunity on offer.
A rare and truly unique opportunity to acquire both the business and freehold of a well set up and established sweet shop, situated in a prominent position in the heart of Baslow on the main public footpath into the renowned Chatsworth Park, which has built up an enviable reputation with a loyal customer base coming from far and wide.

Location - The premises are situated in the Peak District Village of Baslow on Nether End, picturesquely situated opposite the green adjacent to the car park, on the main public footpath into the renowned Chatsworth Park.

The premises benefit from excellent road links to the being just off the main A619 with easy access to Bakewell Town Centre located circa 4.5 miles to the south-west, and Chesterfield Town Centre located circa 8 miles to the east. The City of Sheffield is easily accessible, approximately 12 miles to the north east.

Description - The character stone-built premises are attractively appointed and have been fitted out to an excellent specification, with attractive display shelving showing off the enormous and varied range of jarred sweets.

The business predominantly operates as a sweet shop, also stocking renowned Bradwell's Ice Cream, but also makes the most of the prominent position which benefits from an excellent footfall by offering hot & cold drinks, sandwiches, pasties, pies, sausage rolls, and has gained an enviable reputation with an ever expanding and loyal customer base as well as new visitors every day from the excellent levels of tourism enjoyed in the locality.

The business does not currently have a huge online presence, instead relying on its long-established reputation and prominent position, however this is an area which provides exceptional potential for growth with a website and further social media advertising.

Business - Whilst the business has been impacted by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the current owners have adapted to the ever-changing conditions beautifully, and therefore the business is for sale providing a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire an already successful business with excellent potential for growth as desired, and which has performed very consistently over many years.

Accounting information can be made available following on from a viewing.

Premises - Available on a freehold basis, providing a rare opportunity to acquire a business with freehold premises, particularly given the prominent location.

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 5, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
