Blacks Business Brokers Completes Successful Sale Of Prestbury Beauty Ltd

Blacks Business Brokers is pleased to announce the successful sale of Prestbury Beauty, a modern and fully equipped beauty and aesthetics clinic located in the heart of Prestbury village, Cheshire. The sale represents another strong completion within the premium beauty and wellness sector, highlighting continued demand for well-established, lifestyle-led businesses in highly desirable village locations.

Prestbury Beauty operates as a contemporary beauty and aesthetics studio offering a wide range of treatments that include traditional beauty services alongside advanced skincare and aesthetic procedures. The business has built a strong reputation for quality, professionalism, and client care, serving a loyal and growing client base drawn from Prestbury and the wider Cheshire area. With its combination of everyday beauty treatments such as nails, brows, lashes and skincare, alongside more specialist aesthetic offerings, the business has positioned itself as a trusted destination for both routine maintenance and advanced cosmetic care.

The clinic is based in a prominent and attractive position within Prestbury, one of the region’s most affluent and sought-after villages. Its central location ensures consistent visibility and strong footfall from local residents, visiting clientele, and individuals travelling from surrounding towns. The surrounding environment, characterised by boutique retailers, cafés and convenient parking, enhances the overall customer experience and supports repeat bookings and spontaneous walk-in interest. The village setting also contributes to the salon’s calm and premium feel, which is particularly important within the beauty and wellness industry.

The premises operate from Swanwick House, a characterful and well-maintained building that has been carefully configured to meet the needs of a modern beauty clinic. Internally, the space includes three private treatment rooms designed to provide discretion, comfort and flexibility for advanced skincare and aesthetic procedures. These rooms allow therapists to deliver specialist treatments in a calm, private environment, which is essential for higher-value services. In addition, the main open-plan area serves as both a reception and nail bar, providing a welcoming first point of contact for clients as well as a functional space for manicure, pedicure, gel services and general beauty treatments. The layout has been designed to maximise both client flow and treatment versatility, while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic aligned with the brand’s premium positioning.

The business is operated under a five-year lease with approximately four and a half years remaining, including a two-year break clause. The current rent is set at £1,400 per calendar month, reflecting the strong village location and quality of the premises. This structure offers security for a new owner while also providing flexibility for future planning and growth.

Prestbury Beauty was brought to market due to a change in the owner’s personal circumstances, creating an opportunity for a new operator to take over a fully functioning and well-established business. The sale includes the trading name, website, online booking system, client database, fixtures and fittings, and standard beauty equipment used for a range of treatments including nails, lashes, brows and general beauty services. Importantly, the existing goodwill and established customer relationships provide a strong foundation for continued success and immediate trading continuity. Specialist aesthetic equipment, including advanced skincare devices and non-surgical treatment systems, is excluded from the standard sale but may be available through separate negotiation, offering additional scope for buyers looking to expand service offerings further.

The team currently consists of two employed members of staff and one subcontractor, supported by two directors who are not involved in day-to-day operations. This structure provides stability while also presenting flexibility for a new owner to either operate hands-on or appoint a qualified manager to oversee daily activity. The business is particularly well suited to a qualified beauty therapist holding Level 3, 4 or 5 certifications who is looking to take the step into ownership of an established clinic, or alternatively to an investor seeking a managed business model with an experienced therapist running operations.

One of the key strengths of Prestbury Beauty lies in its balance between traditional beauty services and advanced aesthetics. This dual offering allows the business to cater to a wide demographic, from clients seeking regular maintenance treatments through to those interested in more advanced skincare solutions. The existing layout, particularly the underutilised reception and nail bar area, provides clear opportunities for expansion, whether through increased appointment capacity, additional treatment offerings, or the introduction of a retail skincare range. There is also scope to further develop marketing activity and strengthen the brand presence within Cheshire’s competitive beauty sector.

Opening hours currently operate Tuesday 9:30am to 6pm, Wednesday and Thursday 9am to 7pm, Friday 9:30am to 6pm and Saturday 10am to 4pm. These hours reflect a balanced schedule designed around client demand and staff wellbeing, however they can be easily adapted by a new owner to increase availability, extend trading hours, or accommodate more specialised appointment scheduling. This flexibility adds further potential for revenue growth under new ownership.

The decision to sell through Blacks Business Brokers was driven by the company’s established reputation for successfully handling high-quality business sales within the UK small business market. The firm is known for its professional approach, extensive buyer network, and ability to match businesses with suitable purchasers efficiently and discreetly. In this case, the sale of Prestbury Beauty required a broker with a strong understanding of both the beauty industry and lifestyle business acquisitions, as well as the ability to highlight the opportunity to qualified buyers seeking an established salon in a premium location.

Grace Nganga, Sales Negotiator at Blacks Business Brokers, commented on the sale: “Prestbury Beauty generated strong interest from the outset due to its exceptional village location, beautifully presented premises, and established client base. It represents exactly the kind of lifestyle business many buyers are actively seeking, combining an attractive working environment with genuine growth potential. We are delighted to have successfully secured a buyer who recognises the value and future opportunity within the business. It has been a pleasure working on this instruction and supporting both parties through a smooth transaction.”

The successful sale demonstrates continued confidence in the UK beauty and aesthetics sector, particularly in affluent village settings where demand for high-quality personal care services remains strong. Businesses like Prestbury Beauty, which combine established goodwill with modern facilities and clear growth potential, continue to attract strong interest from both first-time buyers and experienced operators.

Overall, Prestbury Beauty represents a well-positioned, modern and fully equipped salon with significant potential for future growth under new ownership. Its established reputation, desirable location, and flexible operating structure make it an attractive acquisition for a wide range of buyers within the beauty and wellness industry.
