An outstanding opportunity to acquire a well-established café and garden centre business together with a landmark historic freehold building in the heart of Winchester, South Canterbury.
Operating from a beautifully preserved heritage property set within established landscaped grounds, this business offers a true destination experience that cannot be replicated. The historic building provides character, presence, and atmosphere, forming the backbone of a highly recognisable and well-loved local venue that draws both loyal locals and travelling visitors.
The café currently trades Thursday to Sunday, 9.00am to 4.30pm, focusing on strong trading days while offering an enviable lifestyle balance. Operations are supported by two working owners, a full-time chef, and part-time staff, creating a stable and efficient structure for an incoming purchaser.
Complementing the café is an on-site garden centre, which adds a valuable secondary income stream and further enhances the destination appeal. Café patrons browse and purchase garden items, while garden centre customers stay on for coffee and meals, driving strong cross-selling and longer customer dwell times.
The freehold historic building and grounds provide long-term security, control over occupancy, and future flexibility. The character, scale, and setting of the property create a powerful point of difference and long-term asset value rarely available in the region.
This opportunity will appeal to:
• A proven hospitality and retail business
• Multiple income streams
• Ownership of a landmark historic freehold
• Upside through extended trading, events, or retail growth
Genuine opportunities of this nature are rarely available.
