Cafe for sale

A fantastic opportunity has arisen to purchase a well-established, successful café that's ideally located on the beach in the popular seaside town of Shanklin and enjoys panoramic sea views from Culver Down to Dunnose Point.

This gorgeous café has been tastefully designed to a very high specification, with its teal walls and cosy dual fuel stove, it gives a warm, welcoming feel from the onset. Inside, it can comfortably seat 25 and in the summer months, when the outside seating that surrounds the building can be fully utilised, it can cater for an impressive 113 covers in total. Furthermore, it is fully licensed and is well appointed for private functions.

The fully equipped kitchen occupies over a third of the overall space and therefore can cope well during busier times. And there's a handy storeroom at the back for when additional furniture is not in use. The building itself is of solid block construction, with UVPC double glazing for all the windows and powered, electric shutters for when not in use, as well as five CCTV cameras for extra security. There are also twenty solar panels on the roof that currently heat the water, with the capacity to switch to electricity with the addition of a battery, depending on requirements.

There are few locations on the Isle of Wight which can boast such a stunning and picturesque spot as this café is fortunate enough to. Located on the revetment of Small Hope; an unspoilt, sandy beach that is very popular with both tourists and locals alike. It is on the main footpath connecting Shanklin to Sandown, so there is never a shortage of walkers and cyclists at any time of the year.

There is plenty of parking within easy access of the café, with Hope Road car park, as well as on street parking along the esplanade. There is a unisex toilet which has fully disabled access and is registered with Isle Access.
