Comes with extensive inventory of quality fixtures & fittings included & lots of further potential in outstanding location. Sensibly priced for quick genuine reluctant sale after many successful years trading in same hands with viewing essential REF 2417

The subject property occupies an outstanding and highly visible trading position among numerous other complementary independent operators in the busy heart of the famous year-round seaside resort of Blackpool, which lies with excellent access to major tourist routes (A584, A585, A586, A587, A583 and M55 junction 4 etc.) on Lancashire’s delightful and ever-popular Fylde coast.

We are delighted to present this marvellous opportunity to acquire the valuable freehold rights to 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 salon is currently primarily equipped to the highest industry specifications to undertake a virtually ‘one stop’ range of professional and highly creative, classic and contemporary wet and dry hair design and styling services exclusively for gentlemen of all ages, with luxury hot towel shaves and bespoke beard trimming and shaping services also available.

“States Barber Shop” also conducts a highly complementary sales operation of an exclusive range of market-leading hair care and grooming products and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possibly employing the property’s large lower-ground-floor level for possible expansion into other areas of the highly diverse hair and beauty services and retail market.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing facilities and services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online advertising and appointment booking, and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover it has achieved since being established in its present form in 1993 by the current proprietor, with the aid of a small, experienced and motivated team of two full-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would unreservedly recommend a viewing.

Fitted to superb contemporary industry specifications throughout, these extremely well maintained freehold terraced parade premises provide outstanding and highly functional internal business accommodation to the GROUND FLOOR, which briefly comprises an inviting and glazed, single-fronted public entrance directly off Dickson Road into the main, bright, welcoming and deceptively spacious gentlemen’s hair salon.

The salon features a suspended ceiling with diffused fluorescent lighting, ceramic-tiled flooring throughout for easy cleaning, a large wall-mounted TV screen, high quality displays for an exclusive range of market-leading hair care and grooming products, comfortable seating for waiting customers and a prominent, fully fitted service counter with telephone and full complement of payment facilities.

The salon area currently comfortably accommodates 3 x fully equipped mirrored styling stations with built-in stainless-steel washbasins, clippers and hair dryers, etc., all of which we understand is to be included in the sale price and further details of which will be made available upon request to any genuine interested parties.

Further ancillary internal business accommodation to the ground floor consists of a fitted shop kitchen/staff restroom area, together with all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The ground-floor premises also afford descending staircase access down to a large and versatile, full- height LOWER GROUND FLOOR level, which we are advised extends to approximately 900 square feet and would naturally afford excellent potential for conversion to additional hair and beauty treatment facilities subject, of course, to the obtaining of any necessary consents.

The property also enjoys the benefit of gas central heating, in addition to the added security benefits of steel roller shutters to the shop front and a full alarm system.

Externally:

To the exterior the premises are prominently signed and attractively presented and afford ample and inviting display window space onto a high footfall coastal town centre commercial thoroughfare, with unrestricted customer parking available locally.

The business is well fitted throughout and a valuable inventory of equipment is to be included in the sale price.
