DESCRIPTION
The subjects comprise a single storey workshop premises of traditional stone and brickwork construction with a pitched slate roof. Two sets of roller shutters protect the front of the building and the large fascia presents plenty of prominent signage opportunities.
The property offers two workshop areas separated by a dividing wall. Both areas are accessible internally via a small set of steps. Lighting is provided by fluorescent strips. The property is currently owned and occupied by a joinery business which is relocating and as such the premises would suit a similar trades business. Alternative uses may be considered and would be subject to the necessary planning consents.
There is a small private office situated to the front of the larger of the two workshops with a WC and tea prep at the rear. Useful storage space can be found in a fully floored attic which has ramsay ladder access.
A side pend provides vehicle access to the rear but there is no dedicated yard available. There are two rear doors leading into the workshop making deliveries from here possible.
