Shepherd Chartered Surveyors is marketing a reputable café/baker in a charming historic town for sale due to retirement.
Grahams Bakery occupies a prominent roadside trading position within the heart of Lochmaben town centre. The former Royal Burgh of Lochmaben is a historic town with a rich heritage including Lochmaben Castle, once the home of Robert the Bruce, King of Scots.
The town occupies a picturesque setting in the Annandale Valley surrounded by scenic lochs and countryside and boasts good transport links via the A709 and nearby A74(M)/M6 motorway.
Grahams Bakery lies on the broad tree-lined High Street, bookended by the Town Hall and Parish Church, which provides ample on-street parking and includes public transport links.
The well-presented ground floor Class 3 unit with attractive traditional sales frontage forms part of a larger two-storey corner terraced building of red sandstone construction surmounted by a pitched and slated roof, together with additional rear projection.
The sales frontage includes ornate stonework, large display windows with stained-glass and retractable awnings set either side of a recessed entrance door, a partial return frontage, and full-width fascia signage.
The internal accommodation extends to an inviting open-plan café / sales area and kitchen with separate preparation area, toilet and store at the rear.
The café is presently furnished to provide 12 internal covers and six external covers on the public footpath.
The fit-out includes modern storage units and worktops, a full complement of appliances and a recently refurbished extraction system.
Fraser Carson, associate at Shepherd, said: “The unit is long established as a café/baker having traded as such for several decades, with the naming as ‘Grahams Bakery’ introduced by the current owner in 2010.
“The business has a strong local reputation and benefits from a loyal customer base, whilst also being impeccably positioned to capture passing trade.
“The property is well appointed and therefore offers genuine walk-in condition. It is also of manageable scale to suit both an independent business and a multi-location operation, with full rates relief available to those who qualify.
“The business provides any purchaser with a sure footing of consistent and notable profitability, with all trade equipment being owned outright and included as part of the proposed sale”
Offers around £230,000 are invited. Interested parties should contact the sole selling agent for further information on 01387 264333.
