Former County Durham tearoom hits the market

The ground floor of the property is arranged as a traditional tearoom and café space, including a large open seating area, secondary seating room, service counter, commercial kitchen, storage and preparation areas, and multiple customer and staff WCs. The versatile layout is suitable for re‑establishing a café or hospitality business, or alternative commercial uses, subject to the necessary consents.

Above, the first floor provides generous self‑contained living accommodation and is currently arranged as two separate apartments, a two-bed and a three-bed, accessed via a shared hallway, offering flexibility for owner‑occupation, staff accommodation, or potential residential lettings, subject to planning.

Located on Front Street in the popular village of Quebec, with a local catchment and passing footfall, the former tearoom is available with vacant possession. The building also includes a large rear car park, providing valuable off‑street parking.

Marslie McGregor, Senior Business Agent – Pubs & Restaurants at Christie & Co, is managing the sale process and commented, “This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial mixed‑use property in a popular County Durham village, with vacant possession and real flexibility for both commercial and residential uses.

“The working-living arrangement will appeal strongly to owner‑operators, while the size and configuration also offer scope for investors or developers looking to reposition the asset.” 

The former Quebec Tearoom is on the market freehold with an asking price of £300,000.
