Mar 11 2008 by Sue Scott, Evening Gazette

Allsorts on The Front, Seaton Carew, trades as an off licence, confectioners and general store.

It is set amongst other commercial properties, including fish and chip shops, ice cream shops and amusement arcades.

The mid-terrace building, pictured, has a yard and a garage to the rear. The shop unit occupies the ground floor and has been improved by the current owners. The four-bedroom owner’s house is also provided.

Andrew Birnie, from Christie and Co’s Newcastle office, who is handling the sale, said: “The business has traded for many years, but was sold to the current owners two years ago.

“It has been placed on the market again due to bereavement. This is an ideal family business located in an attractive seafront location and benefits from increased trade during the summer months.”

An asking price of £295,000, or nearest offer, is being sought for the freehold interest of Allsorts.
