Self-contained ground floor unit

High street position in densely populated village

Fitted to good standard

Pavement license for outside seating

Vacant possession upon completion

The subject property is located on the main high street of the densely populated village of Dunnington, which is approximately 5 miles from the City of York. Regular bus services connect the village to the city centre and lies close to the main A166 and A1079 roads.

Accessed from the front, the door leads directly into the main trading space. This is currently fitted in a modern contemporary style, that lends itself to multiple catering uses. There is laminate flooring which is laid out for 24 covers at chairs set at loose tables. To the rear is a good-sized bar server with the usual backbar fittings.

Ancillary accommodation at this level includes a single unisex customer toilet, fully fitted catering kitchen with extraction and a service corridor.

Externally, there is a service exit out of the kitchen to a small area for storing bins, a small outside storage shed, single parking space to the rear and as mentioned, a pavement license has been granted in the past for outside seating to the front.

Our client has owned the property for over 10 years and always had it let out during that time. The first floor is let to a separate party and currently utilised for Air BnB accommodation. The ground floor traded successfully as deli/café for an extended period of time. It was subsequently traded as a bistro but has now become free again and our client is looking for a new occupier.

The unit lends itself well to café and deli and has a captive audience from the village. It has two further benefits of a license to serve alcohol and a fully equipped catering kitchen. This would allow an occupier to open later for early evening drinks and with the catering kitchen be able to offer a full-food menu throughout the day and into the evening. It has subsequently been traded as a bistro, but the current tenant is leaving on health grounds, so the unit will be available with vacant possession.
