Location
The Village Kitchen is prominently located on Avenue Road, in the heart of this well-established and popular Northumberland village. Seaton Delaval benefits from a strong local community and a steady flow of passing trade, supported by surrounding residential areas and nearby amenities.
The premises occupy a highly visible roadside position on Avenue Road, one of the village’s main thoroughfares, ensuring excellent exposure to both pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The area is well served by public transport links, with regular bus services connecting Seaton Delaval to Whitley Bay, Cramlington, Blyth, and Newcastle upon Tyne.
The Business
Our clients acquired the premises in December 2024 and have since invested significant capital into upgrading the infrastructure and fixtures and fittings, including the installation of new three-phase electrics. As a result, the business is presented in excellent condition throughout and is fully equipped for immediate operation.
Since taking ownership, the business has established an excellent reputation within the local community, benefiting from a strong base of loyal, long-standing, and repeat customers. It offers a varied and appealing breakfast and lunch menu, complemented by a popular Sunday lunch service. In addition, the business is licensed to sell alcohol and serves a range of beverages including Moretti beer, a selection of wines and spirits, as well as teas and coffees, catering to a broad customer base throughout the day. The business is being offered for sale reluctantly and solely due to our clients’ health, presenting an excellent opportunity for an incoming owner to acquire a well-established and well-presented trading operation with further potential for growth.
The property
The business operates from the ground floor of a mid-terrace, two-storey property with a pitched slate roof. A self-contained two-bedroom flat is situated directly above the commercial premises.
The ground floor extends to approximately 100 sq. M. (1,076.4 sq. Ft.) and comprises an open-plan dining and bar area with seating for 32 covers, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, storage areas, male and female WCs, and a disabled WC with baby-changing facilities.
The residential accommodation is located on the first floor and benefits from a separate access. It comprises a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms, and a bathroom.
