Many buildings purport to have a history, heritage and a story behind them, but surely many cannot match the stories and history that could be told about one of the latest instructions with Commercial and Business Specialists JD Commercial. The Puffing Billy just outside Great Torrington has a history that starts back in 1870 when it was constructed as a two platform station with the first train running in 1871 and sadly the last in 1983, between which times the line was used for both passengers and freight traffic. In more recent times the premises has been operated as a cafe / tea room taking advantage of both its road frontage location as well as position along the popular Tarka Trail, making it ideal for either daytime, evening trade or both! Internally there are many many features from its days as a station including the original Station Masters door and main restaurant which was formerly the platform!! The public areas are currently configured to provide covers for circa 60, with further covers within the tea garden for approximately 100, ideal for those wishing to rest their legs from cycling along the Tarka Line. As well as the commercial parts there is also self contained owners accommodation consisting of lounge, kitchen / diner and 2 bedrooms, with further roof space to convert existing office / storage rooms. Agents JD Commercial urge interested parties to view quickly as they expect strong early interest. JD Commercial are quoting £119,500 for the Leasehold interest.
