Most people never actually do it
Not because they can’t afford to. Because the pieces never line up. The right house is in the wrong place. The right place has no way to earn a living. The numbers work but the life doesn’t, or the life works but the numbers don’t.
Here, for once, the pieces line up. And that is the whole of what makes this rare — not the hectares, not the fruit trees, not even the business on its own.
What you would actually be buying
Whole days that belong to you.
The work takes a small and predictable part of the week, and then it leaves you alone. Properly alone. Not a business you have to feed, not a job you bought and now have to turn up to — an income that arrives whether you spent the morning at a desk or up a ladder picking fruit.
What you do with the rest of it is genuinely up to you. Pick the cherries before the birds get them. Walk out of the gate and keep going. Drive down to the river on a hot afternoon because nothing whatsoever is stopping you.
That is the part we would struggle to explain to anyone who hasn’t had it. Not the house. Not even the money.
The time — enough of it that you stop counting it.
We would love to hear from you
If the money is there, and this is genuinely the life you are after — not a holiday, not an investment, but the actual life — then please get in touch. We have had years of this and they have been the best years we’ve had. We are only handing it on because there is one more thing we want to do while we still can.
We would far rather have one real conversation with someone who wants this than fifty with people who are browsing. If that is you, we are very glad you found us.
Send your enquiry
The form is on our listing at Island Business Listings, where the sale is registered. It comes straight to us — nobody sits in between.
We read every message ourselves and reply personally, usually within a couple of days. If it looks like a fit, the next step is a proper conversation — and then a non-disclosure agreement before we go into the detail of the business, its clients and its figures. That protects people who have trusted us for over a decade. It comes later, not now.
