DESCRIPTION
Occupying a prominent High Street location in the centre of this busy market town, a fantastic opportunity to acquire a spacious mixed use freehold Grade II listed premises, comprising a well maintained lock up shop (currently with A1 use, but suitable for a range of uses subject to the necessary consents being sought), a spacious three bedroom maisonette, and a former two storey wine store, which provides ample storage space, and potential for redevelopment, subject to planning.
The lock up shop is fantastically positioned, being directly in front of the island crossing, so providing plenty of passing foot fall. The front show room is on two levels, like many of the shops along the south side of the High Street, and has a good window frontage, many period features and a large service counter. There is a private office to the rear, and a further office that has been used as a workshop most recently.
On the first and second floor of the building is a good sized and well maintained three bedroom maisonette which is currently let on an assured shorthold tenancy agreement at £530 per calendar month.
To the rear of the property, and with its own separate access is a large building extending to approximately 1,320 square feet, which has been used for storage, but provides a great opportunity to be developed into residential or commercial use subject to planning.
