Antique And House Clearance Business In Nottinghamshire For Sale

Business description

We are pleased to offer for sale this antique and house clearance business, which was established by our client in 1979 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business trades 5-days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £50,000 per annum with a gross profit of 70%, derived from offering antiques and pianos, along with house clearance and second hand furniture. We feel that turnover could be increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and by introducing a website. Our client has developed an excellent reputation and a loyal customer base, which ensures much repeat trade. The Victorian premises boast a large sales area, with numerous showrooms and storage areas. The premises would be suitable for many uses and in our opinion could suit a supermarket or convenience store. The premises are also suitable for a conversion to residential use. We are advised that planning permission is currently in place for development of two 3-bed dwellings. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate the true potential of this excellent opportunity.
