The subject premises occupy an outstanding and very convenient trading position with little in the way of direct local competition on the outskirts of the busy mixed residential and commercial riverside satellite town of Jarrow, which lies with excellent access both to major road and motorway links (A19, A185, A194 and A194M junction 3 etc.) and to the nearby city of Newcastle upon Tyne, on Tyne and Wear.

We are delighted to present this marvellous opportunity to acquire the valuable freehold rights to a thriving commercial proposition of uncommon size, exceptional quality and outstanding future possibilities, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This very well established and highly regarded ISO 9002 accredited automotive solutions provider is currently primarily equipped to the highest industry specifications to undertake a virtually ‘one stop’ range of fast, professional and fully insured accident repairs, ranging from the SMART repair of minor bumps, dents, scuffs and scratches to alloy wheel refurbishments and full body and paint restorations, with a 24-hour emergency breakdown recovery service also in operation.

The workshop additionally undertakes professional and VOSA approved Class IV MOT work, together with a wide range of associated general auto mechanical repairs, maintenance, computerised diagnostic, tyre, clutch, brake and exhaust services for most petrol and diesel, private and light commercial marques, with a popular collection and delivery service also available upon request.

“Jarrow Coachworks Ltd” provides its services for a long-standing and still-expanding, repeat and referral client base, ranging from private vehicle owners and small fleet operators to local Police Forces throughout a wide surrounding catchment area, with a considerable volume of year-round ‘drive in’ trade generated by its excellent location, and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with truly vast scope for continued growth, not least with regard to employing its substantial, though currently largely underutilised 1.2 hectare adjoining compound for expansion into other areas of the diverse motor services and retail market and to possible investment in additional qualified staff in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities.

The business would also benefit by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, both through its own informative dedicated website and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already impressive levels of turnover it has achieved since being established in its present form some thirty highly successful years ago by the current director, with the aid of an experienced and motivated team of six full-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser.

Alternatively, this versatile proposition would most certainly appeal to some similar-sized or larger allied enterprise looking to very significantly increase its existing share of the professional automotive solutions services market by the acquisition of a substantial and extremely well located additional independent freehold operator with a priceless local name, a superb range of market-leading services and an already impressive private and public sector client database, and we would unreservedly recommend a viewing.

Further ancillary accommodation to the accident repairs workshop consists of an adjoining paint store with computerised paint mixing system.

Externally:

Occupying an ideal and very convenient trading position with little in the way of direct local competition in a busy mixed residential and commercial area with excellent access to major transport links on the outskirts of Jarrow on Tyne and Wear, to the exterior the premises are well signed and presented and incorporate a substantial service yard area providing secure unrestricted off-road parking facilities, which we are advised extends to approximately 2 ACRES in total, with high quality steel perimeter fencing and secure gated access.

*Situated directly opposite the main site on Curlew Road, it should be noted that this extensive proposition also incorporates a substantial and highly versatile, though currently largely underutilised additional 1.2 HECTARE site. The site is employed largely for additional secure unrestricted off-road parking facilities with high quality steel perimeter fencing and secure gated access, and would naturally afford excellent potential for business expansion or letting purposes.
