Freehold Cattery Development Opportunity For Sale

Business description

We are pleased to offer for sale this versatile freehold site, which has been trading as a cattery for 25 years.

The vendor has been in ownership for the last five years.

The owner has decided to sell due to another totally different business venture which is taking most of the vendor’s time.

As a result, the cattery is being operated on very limited trading hours and continuously turning customers away.

The business has approximately 500 customers.

The business trades as a boarding cattery. It is registered for 36 pens and can accommodate for up to 52 cats.

The vendor has informed us that planning permission has been granted for a new cattery to replace the existing one.

The cattery affords clean comfortable accommodated and has been completely rewired.

There is huge scope to increase takings by extending the opening hours and by advertising regularly within Leicestershire.

The site is approximately 1.3 acres. It briefly consists of a 4 bed detached house.

The house is in need of some cosmetic decorative upgrading. It benefits from a newly installed central heating system, majority double glazing and has been partially rewired.

The kitchen, office and conservatory are of a good standard.
