Property Description
The property consists of a freestanding, purpose built, retail unit that has been sub-divided 2 units. The originally unit was built as a food store and is of steel frame construction beneath an artificial slate roof and benefiting from on-site car parking for approximately 70 cars. The 2 units are completely independent of one of another with Unit 1 providing for open plan commercial space along with dock level loading bay, stores, plant room, WC and staff facilities. Unit 1 is currently vacant and being offered to the market at a rent of £65,000 per annum but equally would suit an owner occupier.

Unit 2 has been repurposed by the occupier to provide predominately office style accommodation. A considerable investment (Understood to be seven figure investment) into the building has been made by the tenant the National Probation Service (Secretary of State for Housing, Communities & Local Government) who provide a unique and undoubted UK Government back covenant.

A car parking management scheme has been implemented at the site and in the first months of implementation this has generated a net monthly income for the Landlord/Owner in the order of £900 per calendar month. This income is obviously variable with the management scheme in place to serve both additional income generation but also to provide a satisfactory car parking management solution on behalf of the tenants.
