Great Hampton Street, Birmingham, B18

Davidson Estates is pleased to present this beautifully refurbished and fully equipped coffee shop to let. In all, the total useable space has an area of approximately 108 square metres or 1,160 sq.ft. Included in the premium of £39,750 are top of the range items such as the La Marzocco coffee machine which, we are advised, alone, would cost over £10,000. In all, the shop has benefitted from over £150,000 worth of investment including the cost of refurbishment and the property is ready for the successful applicant to commence trading immediately.

The shop is located opposite Tesco Express and the Birmingham Law College on the outskirts of the Jewellery Quarter on Great Hampton Street which is one of Birmingham's main arterial roads, providing easy access to the City Centre. It is surrounded by a plethora of residential developments and, in all, the vibrant and cosmopolitan Jewellery Quarter boasts well in excess of 6,000 residential units together with a vast array of businesses, many of which will provide an excellent symbiotic relationship with the coffee shop, for example, the popular Caribbean fast food takeaway next door. Also, a number of businesses trade from the office complex above the shop. The previous owners of the coffee shop operated at a seating capacity of between 20 – 26 people however there is also additional space for seating in the substantial basement which is currently being refurbished and has a useable area of an additional 20 sq. m. approximately.

In addition to the high quality refurbishment, the shop boasts a fully operational air conditioning system, electronically operated security shutters, a modern, certified electricity supply, a sound system, computers, an advanced CCTV system, security and fire alarms and fibre speed internet.
