Property description

Ainsworth Lord Estates Ltd are delighted to be offering the opportunity to rent this spacious ground floor corner Tea Room and Cafe (with A1 & A3 Consent) on one of the busiest main roads in the country (A666), in the Lynwood Area of Darwen (north of the town centre).



Due to personal reasons, the current owner has reluctantly instructed us to market the business to find someone to take over this business.



This Tea Room/Cafe is available immediately subject to a successful application.



The fixtures and fittings are available to purchase and includes the items you can see in the pictures.



We believe the new owners could significantly increase the takings at this is Cafe. Could this be you?



There is ample on-road parking around the shop



PLUS, it's situated close to:



OTHER BUSY SHOPS

Including a busy off-licence and general store, pizza shop, carpet retailer, Chinese take-away, Barbers, and furniture shop etc. all of which attract plenty of footfall in their own right.



A POPULAR PELICAN CROSSING

With a pelican crossing at your front door, everyone who crosses the road at this busy spot will see your shop (and what you have to sell), PLUS each day thousands of cars that stop outside when the lights are on red, will notice you too. (What form of advertising generates this kind of exposure.... thousands of hits per day or views etc....? The cost of getting so much exposure would be phenomenal! all this comes included in the rent).



TWO BUS STOPS

With two bus stops at the front, one on each side of the road, the amount of exposure you get keeps on getting better!



THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES

If you know this area, you will know there are two large housing estates very close by (and some even larger ones further down the road) as well as hundreds of additional properties in the surrounding streets. The opportunity this presents is huge.... more customers just waiting for you to open up shop!



SEVERAL LARGE EMPLOYERS

With Akzo Nobel, Crown Paints across the road, Herbert Parkinson (John Lewis Partnership) at the back, and loads of other small businesses close by, - all of which combined, employ loads of people.



NEARBY SCHOOLS

There are two primary schools within easy reach, one of the largest secondary schools in Darwen, just down the road. All of which generate lots of healthy footfall and opportunity for repeat business.



DARWEN CRICKET CLUB & DARWEN GOLF CLUB

Both of these clubs are nearby and generate lots of passing footfall at different times of the week. All this additional footfall is important for any business.
