The layout spans three floors—ground, first, and second—with each level containing multiple rooms that provide flexibility for redesign and repurposing.
While the property requires comprehensive updating and modernization, this presents an exciting opportunity for an investor or developer to implement their vision. The potential uses for this space are broad; located within a Conservation Area, it may be suitable for various functions including retail, office space, leisure facilities, or health services. Notably, planning consent has already been granted for a change of use from A1 retail to D1 (dentists), alongside approved internal and external alterations.
Access to car parking for three vehicles is available in the shared rear yard off Market Street, adding convenience for both visitors and staff. While there are some restrictions on certain use classes like restaurants or pubs due to a restrictive covenant, the property's versatility remains high. With careful renovation tailored to market needs, this property could become a valuable asset in an evolving commercial landscape.
In totality, the property offers approximately 2,140 sq ft (199 sq m) of internal space across its three levels: 1,070 sq ft (99 sq m) on the ground floor; 817 sq ft (76 sq m) on the first floor; and 253 sq ft (25 sq m) on the second floor. This creates ample room for creative redevelopment opportunities that could significantly enhance its value in this thriving community setting.
