Full Details

An established, fully-fitted trading unit and kiosk providing an increasingly rare opportunity so close to the Bay.
The demise comprises the two-storey Old Station Building, arranged as ground floor trading space with first floor mezzanine accommodation, together with a separate kiosk unit used for the sale of takeaway food, drinks and retail items to users of the adjoining Lido. Both units benefit from rights of access, servicing and outside seating as set out in the lease.

Location
The Junction Café and Kiosk occupies one of the most recognisable positions on Swansea Bay, standing directly in front of Blackpill Lido and the promenade at the gateway to Mumbles. The premises benefit from exceptional footfall from beachgoers, cyclists, dog walkers and the thousands of residents and visitors who use this stretch of coastline throughout the year.
The premises are situated on Mumbles Road at Blackpill, directly opposite Clyne car park and immediately in front of Blackpill Lido, the Swansea Bay promenade and cycle path, the principal pedestrian and cycle route linking Swansea city centre with Mumbles.

Terms
Premium offers invited for the assignment of the leasehold interest. Sale to include all existing fixtures and fittings.
Further information, including a full copy of the lease and Schedule of Condition, is available upon formal expression of interest.

The Opportunity
With its uninterrupted views over the Lido, promenade and bay, the property lends itself to a range of concepts beyond its current café use, including:

• An intimate wedding and private events venue, making use of the outside terrace and beachfront backdrop
• A wine bar or evening lounge concept, capitalising on sunset views over Swansea Bay
• A destination brunch and coffee house serving the promenade's daily footfall
• Continuation of the current café, bistro and kiosk trade, with scope to extend into first-floor office
