Riverside House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a ground floor freehold retail premises in a prominent and highly desirable location at Town Foot, Hawes. Currently trading as a successful and long-established outdoor retail business, the property is presented to the market due to the owner’s forthcoming retirement.

Hawes is the principal market town of Upper Wensleydale, well-regarded for its rich heritage, vibrant community, and year-round appeal to both visitors and residents. The town boasts a wide selection of independent shops, cafés, traditional pubs, and restaurants, as well as essential amenities including a primary school, church, chapel, and a lively market hall. The popular weekly outdoor market and the spectacular surrounding countryside—renowned for its scenic walking trails and panoramic views—further enhance its attraction.

The property, once a woollen mill has been split in to two apartments and a shop. The shop comprises a spacious and flexible retail area featuring adjustable wall-mounted shelving, a customer changing room, and W/C facilities. The Outdoor Clothing, Footwear and Accessory business is optional, and whilst the shop fittings (slat walls and fixtures etc) are included, the display cabinet, wooden bench and display stands would be additional, as with the Stock (if required).

To the lower ground floor, there are four cellar storage rooms, suitable for limited stock storage only due to restricted head height.

The business, Three Peaks, has been trading for over 50 years, with the current owner managing it successfully for the past 12 years. At present, the shop operates four days a week, reflecting the owner's phased retirement. There is considerable scope for growth, with potential to extend trading hours to seven days and to develop an online presence, offering an exciting opportunity for new proprietors to build on the business’s well-established reputation.
