Abbots Tearoom and Bed & Breakfast in Cerne Abbas, Dorset has come to market through Christie & Co, with an asking price of £495k.
The terraced three storey early 19th century Grade II-listed building is prominently located in the popular tourist village of Cerne Abbas near Dorchester, home to the Cerne Abbas giant, a 180 ft tall chalk figure carved in the hillside.
Abbots Tearoom is a popular day time destination specialising in Dorset Cream teas and light lunches and boasts five letting bedrooms situated above the cafe, offered on a bed and breakfast basis.
There is potential for a new owner to use the rooms above as living accommodation or increase trading hours by opening during the evening as the business is also licensed to serve alcohol.
Handling the sale, Stephen Champion, Christie's Senior Business Agent at the Exeter office, commented, 'Abbots is a unique business which could be ideally suited to a lifestyle buyer, as there is genuine scope to further develop income and profitability by extending the opening hours to take advantage of the busy local evening trade.'
