A new retail opportunity has arisen at Isabel's, a smart retail building in a prime location on The Avenue. Three small retail units are available for a very modest weekly rental. Price available on application. This is the perfect opportunity for someone wishing to enter into their first business. If you would love to run your own shop but are daunted by the thought of all the paperwork involved, this is ideal as it is very simple to run. There are no VAT or tax returns to file.
The three units each have a floor area of 7.3 square metres. They are built to a high specification with wooden flooring and full length double lattice style wooden and glazed doors. Two of the units have shelving and there is space to build a counter top with storage beneath. They lend themselves to a variety of business uses.
Isabel's was extensively refurbished and opened in Spring 2008 as a retail area. It is a very attractive building with an entrance lobby which gives lots of natural light. There is wooden flooring, cream coloured walls, plants and seating. This is a very welcoming and comfortable area for holiday makers to take a rest. The three retail units all open out into this entrance lobby.
There are public toilets in the building which are extremely clean and maintained regularly. These are the only public toilets in the area and they bring many passing customers.
Other businesses located in Isabel's are a photography shop, two gift ships, a children's nursery (where children can stay by the hour) and a large beauticians.
