Summary - 16 EFFINGHAM STREET ROTHERHAM S65 1AJ
1 bed 1 bath Retail Property (high street)
Large town-centre unit with strong footfall and practical rear loading.
Prominent glazed frontage onto busy pedestrianised high street
A prominent mid-terrace high-street retail unit on Effingham Street, offered with a large glazed frontage and strong pedestrian footfall. The ground floor provides a 4.8m by 12.5m sales area with an internal roller shutter, while first-floor staff/ancillary space and attic storage extend usable area to a Net Internal Area of 1,814 sq ft (169 sq m). Rear access allows practical loading and servicing.
This property suits investors or retail operators seeking a visible town-centre presence close to Rotherham Central Station and many national and local retailers. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern trading needs. The unit’s mix of period frontage and modern glazing gives scope to refresh the shopfront or fit-out to specific trading concepts.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the surrounding area records very high crime levels and high deprivation, which may affect certain retail types and insurance or security costs. Tenure is unspecified and should be confirmed. There is no private outdoor space and the plot is small; some refurbishment or fit-out will likely be needed before re-letting or trading.
Overall, this is a sizeable, centrally located retail asset with immediate street visibility and passing trade potential. It offers clear short-term rental potential for retail or service businesses, with longer-term upside if security, fit-out and tenure considerations are managed.
