The subject premises occupy an outstanding and highly visible trading position among other independent operators on a picture postcard market square situated in the busy heart of the prosperous and historic riverside cathedral city and county town of Hereford, which lies with excellent access to major road links (A49, A438 and A465 etc.) and approximately 16 miles from the Welsh border, in a delightful semi-rural area of Herefordshire.

We are delighted to present this excellent opportunity to acquire a valuable 40% share in a thriving commercial proposition of exceptional quality and uncommon further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This very 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 hair design, styling and colouring services for both sexes of all ages.

“Sabato” also conducts a highly complementary sales operation of an exclusive range of market-leading haircare products and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic investor with truly vast scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possibly employing the property’s substantial and currently unused areas for expansion into other areas of the highly diverse hair and beauty services and retail market, possible investment in additional employed or self-employed staff and to operating considerably extended hours in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities, particularly at weekends.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a far more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing 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 in the course of almost forty successful years’ trading in the hands of the current proprietor, with the aid only of a small, experienced and motivated team of two part-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.

Accessed by means of its own inviting ground-floor public entrance and staircase directly off St Peter’s Square, these charming and well maintained leasehold character premises provide truly outstanding internal business accommodation to the FIRST FLOOR, which briefly comprises the main, bright and spacious, open-plan unisex hair salon with suspended ceiling, inset diffused fluorescent spotlighting, feature polished timber flooring throughout for easy cleaning, stylish upholstered lounge furnishings for waiting customers, a fully fitted service counter with telephone and full complement of payment facilities, high quality displays for an exclusive range of market-leading haircare products and delightful picture window views over St Peter’s Square to the local Parish Church.

The main salon area currently comfortably accommodates 3 x fully equipped mirrored styling stations (two with built-in fitted washbasins) together with a fully equipped backwash station and the usual hair drying facilities.

Further ancillary accommodation to the first-floor consists of a useful general storeroom/dispensary with a small shop kitchen area for the provision of hot and cold light refreshments, together with all the usual washroom/WC facilities and an additional, good-sized room which we understand is currently unused and would naturally afford excellent potential for conversion to a beauty treatment room.

To the SECOND FLOOR the premises provide further accommodation which we understand requires a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and currently consists of three unused rooms which 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 premises also enjoy the benefit of air conditioning.
