Summary - Fylde Mowercare & Cycles, New Lane, Thornton, FY5 5NH FY5 5NH
1 bed 1 bath Workshop
Established mower and cycle showroom/workshop with parking and expansion potential.
Freehold commercial unit approximately 2,500 sq ft
A rare freehold commercial unit in Thornton offering c.2,500 sq ft of showroom, workshop and storage across a single storey. Established for garden machinery and cycles sales and repairs, the business delivered £157,000 turnover (15 months) with net profits in excess of £55,000, presenting immediate trading income for an owner-operator or investor. The premises include 3-phase electrics, a wood burner and forecourt parking with a 19m side yard, useful for deliveries and outdoor storage.
The layout suits continuation of the existing business: double-fronted showroom, dedicated workshop, parts store, spray room and multiple stores with roller-shutter access. The freehold nature and generous plot create potential to expand staffing, extend services, or adapt the unit to alternative commercial uses (subject to consents). The vendor may agree to sell without stock, simplifying an acquisition for a purchaser who does not want to buy trading stock.
Notable practical considerations: broadband speeds are slow, which may affect online trading or desk-based operations; ceiling heights are standard rather than tall, limiting very large machinery or mezzanine options. The business is owner-run at a level that suits the current couple, so growth will require additional staff or active owner involvement.
Located next to Burnside Garden Centre with local amenities and very low crime, the property sits in an affluent, ageing-suburban area with good mobile signal and easy roadside access. Buyers should verify tenure and check any planning constraints if proposing a change of use or significant alterations.
