This property presents a compelling opportunity for renovation and investment, previously functioning as a garden centre. Encompassing approximately 5.435 acres (2.199 hectares), the site features a mix of paved parking areas and open land, partially grassed and hardcored, offering flexibility for various potential uses, pending the necessary planning approvals.
On-site are two detached greenhouse structures with a robust metal framework and glazed panels that served as retail space and display areas, totaling 5,826 sq ft (541.19 m²) of gross internal floor area. Additionally, there is a traditional commercial unit with an internal area of about 1,195 sq ft (111.01 m²), characterized by an eaves height of approximately 4.21 meters and an entrance wide enough to accommodate diverse commercial operations.
The property benefits from dual access points from the A53, enhancing its visibility and accessibility for potential business ventures or redevelopment projects. Included with the sale is a three-bedroom detached bungalow featuring a kitchen/diner, sitting room, three bedrooms (one with an ensuite), and a separate shower room—providing immediate residential accommodation or possible rental income.
Strategically situated along the A53 near Shawbury village—a locality with essential amenities and a population of around 2,834 as recorded in the 2021 census—the property enjoys significant road frontage along a key route connecting Shrewsbury to Market Drayton. This prime location ensures good connectivity to major transport links, including the M54 motorway.
The property is available freehold with vacant possession; however, there are existing restrictions on certain retail uses that prospective buyers should inquire about further through the selling agents. Although mains water and electricity are connected to the site—with private drainage servicing the premises—potential buyers are encouraged to verify all service details independently prior to purchase.
With its extensive land area and flexible zoning possibilities as previously utilized for a garden centre under existing planning permissions, this property offers substantial potential for adaptive reuse or redevelopment in line with local market needs. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate its diverse investment possibilities.
