Commercial Property
DRAFT DETAILS. An excellent opportunity to acquire a unique commercial investment. Set within the walled garden to the rear of Staunton Harold Hall is a privately owned garden centre and Nursery. Successfully run since 1990, the garden centre has grown from a plant nursery into a fully operational garden centre offering a vast array of plants and garden furniture, there is also an aquatic centre, gift shop and restaurant on site.
The grounds of the hall itself extend to 2000 acres with plenty of walks offering a full range of facilities for a family day out, the garden centre itself sits adjacent the Ferrers Centre for Arts & Crafts with cafes and Deli’s set within what was formally the stable block.
The current owners are proposing to sell the Garden centre to an investor and take a 10 year lease back on the premises. The lease will commence upon the sale and the rent has been agreed at £80,000 p.a.
Interested parties are to note that the Garden centre has two legal access points, from both Melbourne Lodge and Heath End. While access has also been used for many years from Ashby Lodge, this is not a legal right of way.
