Property description

This well established independent florist business is situated within a modern courtyard arcade in the commercial centre of Swanage, a short distance from the town Square and seafront. It has been successfully operated for many years and has a good turnover (further information regarding annual counter sales is available upon request). The business has the advantage of an e-commerce website (bloomfloristry.com and bloomfloristry.co.uk), there is however scope to expand the business further by joining a relay service such as Interflora. The shop is available on a new lease for a minimum term of 5 years at a rental of £8,000 per annum with the tenant being responsible for internal redecoration. A tenant will be expected to pay three months rent in advance and also pay an additional sum of £500 which will be held by the landlord and returned at the end of the tenancy providing the premises are surrendered in good condition.
