Summary - Glenfaba is a successfully operated and immaculately maintained Guest House located a stones throw from Douglas Promenade that is offered for sale on a turnkey basis including all furnishings, fixture and fittings as well as future bookings.

Purchased and operated as a family run Guest House since 1989, the current owners have decided that it is time to retire from the industry leaving behind years of happy memories, with books full of positive reviews and feedback from happy customers having enjoyed their stay. Having successfully run the business for such a long time, the owners pride themselves on the high quality maintenance coupled with the impeccable cleanliness of Glenfaba which has helped generate high levels of occupancy and repeat business over the Easter to Autumn season that it is open year on year.

In terms of financials, the owners have over the years consistently generated high levels of occupancy in the Guest House, which has culminated in impressive levels of turnover and healthy returns year on year, this despite only operating for a seven month season. An information pack will be made available to prospective purchasers that will provide financial data, room occupancy levels, details of future booking data and any other relevant information such as room rates..

The property itself comprises 17 Guest Bedrooms spread out over four floors, with each of the Guest Bedrooms including its own En Suite Shower Room. The breakdown of the Guest Bedrooms includes three single rooms, nine double or twin rooms and five family rooms.

Stepping into the property on the ground floor there is a Vestibule which flows into a bright and welcoming Hallway with attractive Karndean flooring. At the front of Glenfaba is the Dining Room that offers 22 covers. Directly behind is a well equipped Commercial Kitchen with a Laundry Room off. At the rear of the ground floor is a guest WC followed by Hallway door that separates off two Guest Bedrooms that are used by the family and therefore not offered to paying customers. A staircase heading down leads to the owners flat, whereas a staircase adjacent to the Dining Room leads to the upper floors.

The layout of the three upper floors is substantially identical, each of which comprises five En Suite Guest Bedrooms. One Bedroom on each of the floors at the front of the property benefits from a large bay window and side sea views. Each of the rooms are tastefully decorated and immaculately presented as well as being well equipped with wall mounted TV's, tea and coffee making facilities and a hairdryer to name some of the facilities, all of which add up to positive guest experiences and often, repeat business.

The Lower Ground floor is the home of the current occupants. A generous space with its own external access comprises of an open plan Lounge/Diner, large galley style Kitchen with equally large Utility Room off that doubles up as an Office. Two double Bedrooms share a modern Jack n Jill style Bathroom, in addition to which there is a separate WC located at the front of the flat and a Boiler Room at the rear. There is also a sub-basement that runs underneath the flat offering excellent storage facilities.

Outside there is a low maintenance garden area to the front and a yard to the rear with artificial grass covering and an awning to provide a pleasant and social seating area.

The owners have a further property that can be used as an overflow option. For those seeking additional space they will consider offers on selling Glenfaba in conjunction with the additional property that is located on Douglas Promenade, within very close proximity of Glenfaba.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
