SUPERB COFFEE SHOP & WINE BAR WITH HUGE POTENTIAL IN CALNE/WILTS

Fitted to the highest industry specification throughout, thanks to a comprehensive programme of renovation undertaken at great expense by the current proprietors over recent years, these charming and well maintained leasehold former public house premises provide excellent and highly functional internal business accommodation to the GROUND FLOOR, which briefly comprises an inviting corner public entrance directly off Church Street into the main airy, welcoming and elegant, yet unpretentious customer service and dining area. The dining area now offers extensive and attractively appointed display space for a varied selection of beautiful decorative artworks, sculpture and antiques and currently offers just 12 internal covers, though with HUGE scope for any new owner to return to its pre-Covid total of 40 covers. Boasting intimate lighting, a large feature gilt wall mirror, solid timber flooring throughout and prominent wall-mounted menu/specials boards, the main public area also includes a fully fitted and purpose-built solid timber food service counter and licensed wine bar with overhead suspended lighting, bottle display and storage shelving, wine racking, chilled drinks display facilities, electronic till point, credit card payment machine, state-of-the-art coffee machine (fully owned) and coffee grinder. The main service area, in turn, affords easy private access through to a fully equipped and extracted 5-Star hygiene rated "galley" style working kitchen with built-in storage units, washing-up kitchen area with fitted sink unit, a full range of well maintained, industry standard appliances including oven, grill and refrigerator/freezer storage units etc., and with access to a further rear dedicated "Pizza Kitchen" with modern two-deck commercial pizza oven and pizza dough and topping preparation work surfaces. Further ancillary internal accommodation consists of separate, large, well fitted and maintained male and female washroom/WC facilities for customers, together with separate doorway access to the rear private service yard area. Accessed by means of an internal staircase from ground-floor level, or by means of an external former double-door "barrel drop" delivery access point from street level, the premises also include a HUGE former public house beer cellar and barrel store at BASEMENT LEVEL extending the full "footprint" of the ground-floor premises, which is currently employed solely for storage purposes, but which may have potential for future development subject, of course, to the obtaining of any necessary consents. The premises also enjoy the benefit of gas central heating, in addition to the added security benefit of lockable internal double shutters to the windows, and we are further informed that they meet with all the required fire safety regulations. EXTERNALLY Occupying an unmissable corner trading position on a mini roundabout at the junction of Church Street and New Road (A4) in the very desirable riverside town of Calne in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the fringes of Wiltshire's stunning North Wessex Downs, to the front the premises are attractively presented and include an additional public entrance (currently unused and secure) directly off the adjacent main A4 tourist route (New Road). The premises also incorporate a useful service yard area to the rear with separate access for deliveries.

The subject premises occupy a very prominent and eye-catching corner trading position adjacent to the local parish church and delightful main central "green" of the beautiful, affluent and "up-and-coming" town of Calne (former home of such august individuals as Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Joseph Priestley) which nestles on the banks of the river Marden in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural beauty with a high volume of year-round tourist activity in semi-rural Wiltshire. Whilst occupying an idyllic setting, this famous former ham and bacon curing town is also conveniently situated with excellent access both to major road links (A4, A3102 and A342) and to the nearby centres of Chippenham (6 miles) Marlborough (13 miles) Trowbridge (15 miles) and London (82 miles by means of the nearby M4 motorway).
