Comes with large first-floor area with development potential & scope for extended hours & online sales etc in excellent commercial location.

The subject premises occupy a prominent trading position with little in the way of direct local competition on the busy mixed residential and commercial outskirts off the vibrant and historic riverside town of Burton-upon-Trent, which lies with excellent access to major road and motorway links (A38, A50, A511, A444 and M42 junction 11 etc.) in the Trent Valley area of East Staffordshire.

We are delighted to present outstanding opportunity to acquire a thriving commercial proposition of uncommon quality and real further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This long established and highly regarded angler’s “Aladdin’s Cave” currently primarily conducts an extremely popular retail operation of a stunning range of equipment and supplies by market-leading manufacturers for coarse, carp, game, specimen, sea and match fishing enthusiasts of all ages and abilities.

The store’s products range from rods, reels, hooks, lines, floats and lures to rod rests, rod bags, creels, umbrellas and collapsible chairs etc., all displayed to its very best advantage in a bright, spacious and welcoming showroom area.

“Burton Angling Supplies” also stocks an excellent choice of premium quality baits and ground baits and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possibly employing the property’s currently underutilised first-floor level for business expansion purposes and to the possible introduction of Sunday trading in order to fully exploit year-round local and passing trade demand.

The business would also benefit by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing products and services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online sales and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already impressive levels of turnover it is achieving in the hands of the current director, with the aid only of a small, experienced and motivated team of one full-time and two part-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.

These substantial TWO-STOREY leasehold commercial premises provide well fitted and highly functional internal business accommodation which, to the GROUND FLOOR, briefly comprises an inviting public entrance into the main, bright, welcoming and deceptively spacious, ‘walk round’ retail sales and customer service showroom area with diffused fluorescent strip lighting throughout.

The main showroom area houses a full range of well maintained, fixed and freestanding, purpose-built display racking, shelving and furniture for a stunning range of premium-quality angling equipment and supplies in addition to a large, glass-fronted and refrigerated display unit and a prominent, fully fitted display point-of-sale counter area with full complement of payment facilities.

Further ancillary business accommodation to the ground floor consists of a large general storeroom with separate delivery door access to the rear.

To the FIRST FLOOR the premises provide further accommodation which consists of two large areas currently employed for storage purposes, which we understand would afford excellent potential for conversion to additional showroom space if required subject, of course, to the obtaining of any necessary consists.

Further ancillary accommodation to the first floor consists of all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The premises also enjoy the benefit of electric heating and double glazing, in addition to the added security benefit of a full alarm system.

Externally:

To the front the premises are well signed and presented and afford ample and inviting display window space onto a high footfall commercial thoroughfare, with unrestricted customer parking available locally.

The premises also incorporate a useful private service yard area to the rear providing private unrestricted off-road parking facilities for approximately three vehicles.

*We are further informed that all existing stock at the time of sale is to be included in the sale price (estimated average value circa £120,000) further details of which will be made available upon request to any genuine interested parties.
