A fantastic opportunity has arisen to acquire an ideally located and much-loved sweet shop, fronting onto the bustling High Street in Grantown on Spey at the heart of the Cairngorms National Park. Established for more than forty-three years, this cherished local favourite has long been a fixture of the town, delighting generations of families and visitors. Having thoroughly enjoyed being custodians of the shop, the current owners now feel it is time to pass it into new hands, allowing someone else to continue its legacy while they embark on their next chapter. The premises have previously undergone extensive refurbishment, with relined walls, Kingspan insulation and full rewiring, resulting in an immaculately presented and inviting trading space. The layout has been carefully designed, featuring bespoke jar displays, a dedicated pick-and-mix area, an appealing ice-cream counter, a luxury chocolate cabinet and a drinks fridge. To the rear, a practical store and cloakroom offer excellent functionality. The sale includes all fixtures and fittings, three freezers, the drinks fridge, ambient chocolate fridge, and the air-conditioning unit, providing efficient heating and cooling. Stock will be available at valuation. A key attraction of the business is its celebrated ice-cream offering. For eight months of the year, the scooping counter serves Stew and Drew’s highly regarded ice cream, while Portsoy Ice Cream is available year-round in takeaway tubs, both proving consistently popular with locals and tourists. The business traditionally closes for January, offering built-in respite for new owners, though there is clear scope for additional income during this period should extended trading or alternative opening patterns be preferred. Presented in genuine walk-in condition, this charming and well-established lifestyle business offers a rarely available opportunity to acquire a thriving venture. EPC F
