Property Description
Rare opportunity to acquire an established waterfront business, including the business, inventory, furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E). This is a sale of the business and its assets only; the building and underlying real estate are NOT included in the sale but will be leased for $4,200 to the buyer of the business. The business operates from a highly desirable waterfront location at 255 Lore Road in Solomons, Maryland, offering an exceptional setting and tremendous potential for continued growth.
The property location features approximately 68 feet of waterfrontage, a private dock site, and access to four shared slips, creating a unique setting for a business that can capitalize on Solomons Island's strong boating, tourism, dining, and recreational activity. The spacious interior offers ample seating and flexibility to accommodate high-volume business while also providing the ability to create a more intimate dining or event atmosphere.
Situated in Solomons Island, the business benefits from proximity to major regional attractions, boating activity, restaurants, marinas, and seasonal events. The Calvert Marine Museum, one of Southern Maryland's year-round attractions, is nearby and draws visitors with its maritime history, Chesapeake Bay exhibits, aquariums, fossils, historic Drum Point Lighthouse, and waterfront cruises.
Additional nearby attractions include the Solomons Island Boardwalk, offering scenic waterfront views and pedestrian access to the island's shops, restaurants, and waterfront amenities; Drum Point Lighthouse; the historic J.C. Lore & Sons Oyster House; and waterfront cruises.
For arts and cultural tourism, Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center is nearby and offers more than 30 acres of gardens, sculpture, trails, galleries, and seasonal festivals and events.
The existing business provides a prospective owner with an opportunity to step into an established operation while exploring additional revenue streams, including expanded dining, private events, waterfront gatherings, catering, specialty programming, or other complementary uses, subject to applicable approvals and agreements.
Please note: The sale includes the operating business, inventory, furniture, fixtures, and equipment. The building, land, and real estate are expressly excluded from the sale. Any continued occupancy of the premises will be subject to a separate lease or other agreement with the property owner.
