4-6 Baker Street comprises a mid terraced three storey and attic building providing retail unit at ground floor level and former store/office on the first second and attic level. The building is of traditional stone construction surmounted by a pitched and slated roof. We would estimate that the building was constructed in the late 1800’s.
The ground floor of the property comprises a retail unit which was last occupied by a funeral directors. The space provides front shop, office, back shop and w.c.
The first floor, second floor and attic are accessed via a private entrance door in the lane beside the property at ground floor level. The property appears to have been dis-used for a number of decades and is in extremely poor condition. Significant refurbishment would be required prior to making the property suitable for occupation.
