Turnkey Vermont Wine Bar in Prime Resort Destination
Marketing description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully built-out, turnkey restaurant and wine bar located in a highly desirable and accessible setting. The business operates out of approximately 1,500 square feet and is thoughtfully designed to support both à la carte dining and flexible private dining experiences, making it ideal for an experienced operator or hospitality group seeking immediate entry or expansion. The inviting dining area accommodates everyday service while also offering the ability to host semi-private or private events. In addition, there is an adjacent room available for lease from ownership, providing a unique opportunity to expand into a dedicated private dining or event space suitable for weddings, corporate functions, and special occasions.
The restaurant features a large commercial kitchen equipped for high-volume production, including an approximately 12-foot hood system, making it well-suited for both on-premises dining and potential off-site catering operations. While the current business is not licensed for off-site catering, the infrastructure is fully capable of supporting such an expansion, offering meaningful upside potential. The business is supported by active Type 1 and Type 3 liquor licenses, allowing for the full service of beer, wine, and spirits throughout the entire premises, including both the dining room and bar area, enhancing revenue opportunities and overall guest experience.
The location benefits from complimentary on-site parking for guests, a valuable amenity that significantly enhances accessibility and convenience, particularly for evening dining and event-based business. The existing lease runs through June 30, 2029, providing stability for a new operator. The tenant is responsible for utilities, including propane, electricity, and internet, but is not responsible for real estate taxes, and the property is connected to public sewer, eliminating any private maintenance obligations.
Overall, this is a strong turnkey opportunity with significant upside through the expansion of private events, catering, and enhanced programming. With a fully equipped kitchen, valuable liquor license, flexible layout, and favorable lease structure, this offering is well-positioned for an owner-operator, catering company, or hospitality group looking to establish or grow a successful, event-driven dining concept.
