A prominent, and much admired detached stone building with private driveway parking to the side is available to rent on a FRI lease for a minimum period of three years from around November 2024. The property is available for a long term tenancy, and longer lease options would be preferred.
The property is in the heart of the much admired north Bolton village of Bromley Cross, in a consistently popular residential area, with a variety of professions nearby, residences and facilities near by.
It is thought the building would suit a wide variety of uses subject to planning approval for change of use, and has most recently been used as retail premises, and previously it has been an estate agency office, and accountants office. The current Class usage is E, more details of what falls within this usage class are within the details below, but we encourage all parties to make their own enquiries that their use for the building is suitable.
The stone building accommodation extends to around 1,306 square feet, / 127 square meters over two levels of business space with cellar storage space. The accommodation briefly comprises entrance vestibule, large ground floor open plan showroom space, there is a storeroom behind the current reception desk area, the turning staircase is off the ground floor showroom and leads to the first floor where there is a second generously sized showroom space, a separate front office, a kitchen / comms room, a lovely WC / wash room and a store room which may be ideal to be made into a second WC / wash room, there is cellar storage space with around a 2 meter head height.
Externally there is a gated driveway to the side of the property providing secure private off-road car parking for probably around 2/3 cars, there is a garden area to the rear of the building as well.
The property benefits from gas combination central heating, UPVC double glazing, CCTV cameras are fitted, there is a security alarm system in place and the property is available for immediate occupation. The Bolton Council rateable value is only £9,000 per annum. Though this is not the amount paid, and perhaps, small business rates relief could be available depending on the circumstances of the incoming tenants.
Importantly the initial annual rent is £20,000, paid monthly this would be £1666.66, this rent amount is exactly what a Chartered Surveyor valued the rent at during the recent purchase process. The building is not registered for VAT so there is no additional VAT to pay on top of the rent. A deposit of at least one months rent will be required.
We feel that this property would make a superb location for a number of businesses in a variety of industries and will hopefully make a superb long term business venture in a beautiful and much admired village.
