One lucky Greggs fan will soon be bringing in the dough, as a branch has emerged for sale for \u00a3100,000.<\/p>\n
The shop, located in\u00a0Gateshead, near Newcastle, is being sold under the hammer by Auction House and advertised on Rightmove.<\/p>\n
It sells all the High Street chain’s favourites, from sausage rolls, to steak beaks and bean and cheese melts.<\/p>\n
Greggs, which has over 2,000 bakeries nationwide, has five years left on its lease and so the buyer will own their shop until at least 2028.<\/p>\n

The bakery chain pays \u00a31,472.50 rent per month to use the single-storey building, which works out at \u00a317,670 a year.<\/p>\n
This means that in a five-year period, the buyer will make back \u00a388,350.<\/p>\n
However, the\u00a0downside is there are only 48 years left on the leasehold.<\/p>\n
The listing reads: ‘The property comprises a single-storey ground floor retail unit.<\/p>\n
‘Leasehold, the property is held on a 99-year lease from 25 December 1972, thus approximately 48 years unexpired.<\/p>\n
