A stunningly presented 8-9-bedroom boutique guesthouse, which is probably one of the best-presented guesthouses we have come across. It is successfully owner-operated and situated in the heart of Torquay, Devon. Benefiting from a guest lounge-bar, dining room, two garden areas, car park and only minutes away from the town centre and seafront, together with the owners' 2-3-bedroom luxurious accommodation. This business enjoys a particularly high percentage of repeat custom, a high Booking.com ranking and exceptional feedback on TripAdvisor ranking as well. This easily operated turn-key guesthouse is an opportunity not to be missed and early viewings are highly recommended. The property is located on St Marychurch Road and is ideally placed between the town centre and the local amenities of St Marychurch and Babbacombe. It is just a short walk to the Town Centre and then through to the harbour and marina. It is conveniently situated both for the local bus and railway station and ideally located to access all main arterial roads reaching cities like Plymouth and the cathedral city of Exeter with its International airport nearby. The Albaston House has been trading successfully for several years under its present owners and has earned itself a fine reputation with locals and visitors alike. Although trading successfully with deliberately restrictive opening hours due to the owners' lifestyle choice, we the agents, feel that there is great scope to expand on the current turnover by increasing internet presence, trading with 8 guest bedrooms instead of nine rooms improved marketing, and a longer trading season. Actual trading accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
