The London & South East office of specialist leisure & hospitality agents Sidney Phillips, is offering a stunning new build restaurant with estuary views in Essex to let
Blackwater Lodge Retreat is located on the outskirts of the village of Heybridge, near Maldon in Essex boasting an impressive waterside position on the Saltmarsh Coastal Trail pathway, a 75 mile coastal walkway housing dynamic wildlife habitats, historic villages and stunning landscapes.
Blackwater Lodge Retreat is an exciting new development which will see the erection of a newly constructed hospitality venue with attractive glass frontage providing unrivalled views over the estuary. The premises will neighbour the construction of 12 new two/three bedroom lodges for full-time occupation and holiday lets. These bespoke and upmarket lodges are expected to be priced in the region of £400,000 per unit, and will undoubtedly create a consistent income stream for a new operator. A new public footpath is due to be constructed, linking the public highway to the coastal path, which is expected to bring high levels of footfall directly to the premises in addition.
The property will greatly benefit from the large external seating area with unrivalled views, being able to create a truly special al fresco dining experience that enjoys being a sun trap throughout the day and enjoying stunning twilight sunsets over the water in the evening. Similarly this area will provide a more casual wine and dine experience during the day, enticing those using the coastal pathway.
Robert Cockayne of Sidney Phillips, who is handling the sale, commented: “The area is well known for its locally sourced seafood and shellfish, notably the World-renowned Blackwater and West Mersea oyster beds, which could become a unique selling point of the business. Blackwater Lodge Retreat is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced operator to take on a blank canvass opportunity and create their own dream.”
“The property will well suit an operator who can deliver a high-end experience targeted at high disposable income patrons including walkers, birdwatchers, sailing enthusiasts, neighbouring Marine Club members and new developments at nearby Osea Island.”
Sidney Phillips are offering the restaurant to let on a new free-of-tie lease agreement on favourable and flexible terms, with a guide rent of £28,000 per annum.
