DESCRIPTION

A deceptively spacious, single-storey end-terraced unit offering excellent potential for a variety of commercial or mixed-use purposes. The property comprises a traditionally constructed front section with a rendered stone façade under a pitched slate roof, complemented by a series of flat-roofed extensions to the rear.

Internally, the layout includes a front shop area, two generous preparation zones (one with a walk-in cold room), a kitchen, and access to a substantial rear store/garage.

The premises benefit from a large footprint, making it adaptable for a wide range of business ventures including hot food takeaway, café, deli, or other retail, service, or leisure uses, subject to planning where required.

The detached external store/garage to the rear features a vehicular roller shutter door and offers further storage or workshop potential.

To the rear, the property boasts a large enclosed garden area, predominantly laid to lawn. This outdoor space presents a rare opportunity for further development or residential conversion, subject to necessary consents.

This is a highly flexible unit, ideally suited for owner-occupiers, investors or developers seeking a property with strong potential and multiple use options.
