Location
A rare opportunity has arisen to purchase the freehold of this prominent shop in the centre of The Bridge. The unit is located in the central section of The Bridge, and is highly visible from passing traffic.  Neighbouring businesses include Beekers Card Shop, Ray & Scott the Jewellers along with Lloyds TSB, HSBC and NatWest Bank. 

The Bridge is a popular shopping centre and the redevelopment of Leale’s Yard to the rear of the property will further enhance the area.  There are many one hour parking spaces available to the front of the premises with longer term parking located only a short walk away.

Description
Currently used as a convenience store, the ground floor retail area offers approximately 737 sq.ft with a basement storage area of 606 sq.ft making a total of 1,343 sq.ft.

The property could be of interest either to an owner-occupier, developer or an investor alike.   This unit is situated in a prime location and we envisage that it could be of great interest being ideally placed in the middle of a parade of shops with plenty of parking.  Furthermore, this is one of very few properties along the row which does not have a first floor, and so could be of interest to a developer who may want to add an upper floor above the retail unit (subject to planning), further enhancing both the capital and rental value of the property.

Accommodation
The ground floor retail area offers full window frontage with the door being situated on the side of the unit.  To the rear of the ground floor is a staff WC and stairs leading down to the basement.  In addition to a large storage area, the basement also houses a small office and direct access out to the rear of the property on to an unloading area which forms part of the property.

Tenure and Price
The freehold interest of the property is available for £470,000.

Tenancy
Whilst the premises are currently occupied, the lease expires on 31 August 2008.

Legal Costs
Each party to bear their own legal costs.
