The current owner has owned and run it successfully and lucratively for the last 18 years and is now only selling, albeit with a heavy heart, due to his wish to take a well-earned retirement.

  • The sale of bags, suitcases, purses and wallets, leather belts.

  • Low running costs with inexpensive rent and no business rates.
  • Ideal trading position in the popular Bulkington shopping area.
  • Ideal owner managed or partnership business.

The Bulkington Laundrette is in Bulkington in the county of Warwickshire.

Bulkington is a large village and former civil parish in the Nuneaton and Bedworth district of Warwickshire. It’s located around 6 miles north-east of Coventry, just east of the towns of Nuneaton and Bedworth and 4 miles south-west of Hinckley.

Speculative private housing development began in the 1930’s and by the 1960’s surrounded the village with expansive suburban areas. In addition to the greenfield development of the 1960’s, much of the village itself was redeveloped. This involved the creation of a shopping precinct in Leicester Street where the business is located, this vibrant and busy shopping centre has wide pavements and pedestrian areas and gives a really nice shopping experience.

The Bulkington Laundrette sits alongside other complimentary retail businesses such as hairdressers, a pharmacy, convenience stores, betting shops and cafes and thus benefits from high levels of footfall and passing trade.

The business is nicely presented and maintained with clear visible signage and there is free on street parking close by.

The business occupies the ground floor of a 1960’s inner terraced retail unit and briefly comprises;

Shop -

Windows and glazed double doors to front creating a light airy and inviting interior, suspended ceiling with concealed lighting, tiled floor, bespoke counter at front of shop with generous wrapping area and perimeter shelving, Hardo shoe repair machine, two key cutting machines, range of wall mounted key blanks.

All washing machines and dryers are modern models, fully maintained and in perfect working order. 

Storeroom -

Behind the main shop is a useful storeroom which also houses a recently replaced water boiler and water pump.

There is also a staff kitchenette and a WC with hand wash basin.
