Popular Retail Outlet/Café For Sale due to retirement

Biomass boiler
Potential for alternative uses subject to Planning & Listed Building consent
The property comprises a retail outlet, café and adjoining land. The original Mill dates from around 1781, with the main building being three-storey, of stone construction under a slate covered pitched roof with single glazed timber framed windows. This part of the property is occupied as a shop, café and museum. The upper floors of the building provide office and storage facilities.
The café is complete with a commercial kitchen and internal seating for around 100 customers, as well as customer toilets. The café leads into the museum area, where original elements of the Mill are displayed. There is a garden area to the front of the property with external seating for the café and a small children’s play area.
The main retail unit is situated toward the rear of the site and is constructed of stone elevations, predominantly clad in corrugated metal panels to the roof and side elevations. The roof is timber framed, with north lights.
There are several other detached outbuildings, which are mostly used for storage. One houses the biomass heating system, which provides hot water and central heating to the property. A gas tank provides gas for cooking in the commercial kitchen.
There is a car park to the side of the retail unit which is unmarked and has space for approximately 80 cars.
The total site area extends to 14.12 acres (5.71 hectares). Approximately 11.49 acres (4.65 hectares) of this is grazing land, which we understand is let to the adjoining farmer.
Part of the original Mill building is Grade II Listed, as are the Tenters, which are rows of tenterhooks previously used for the drying of cloth and dating from the early 19th Century.
Location
The property is situated in the village of Otterburn, which lies on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. Otterburn lies on the A696 close to its junction with the A68 approximately 24 miles north of Hexham and 31 miles north-west of Newcastle upon Tyne.
The village lies on the banks of the River Rede and benefits from local amenities including shops, school, church and small sports centre. The village is also home to the Otterburn training area, which is one of the largest army training ranges in the UK.
The Scottish Borders are around 16 miles to the north-west.
