Summary - 8 Siddals Road, Copeland Street, Derby, Derbyshire DE1 2PY
1 bed 1 bath Leisure Facility
Rare inner-ring road site with flexible commercial and leisure potential.
16,232 sq ft former showroom and soft-play on 0.88-acre site
A substantial, flexible commercial building on a 0.88-acre site adjacent to Derby’s inner ring road and within walking distance of Derbion Shopping Centre. The 16,232 sq ft steel-frame unit includes a glazed atrium former showroom, mezzanine café with catering kitchen, WC facilities, and a separate two-bay workshop/industrial unit — all offering immediate scale for leisure, retail, showroom or light industrial uses.
The property already has practical services in place: ducted and AmbiRad heating, low-energy lighting, good ceiling heights (4.75m front eaves; 3.35m rear unit), concrete floors and large glazed frontage that delivers strong natural light and prominent visibility from the road. There is no reported flooding risk.
Important considerations for buyers: the asset is leasehold, located in a very deprived area with very high recorded crime levels, and local broadband speeds are slow. The building has been adapted for soft play and light industrial use and will likely require refurbishment or specification changes for alternative occupiers — budget for fit-out and security improvements.
This is a clear opportunity for an investor or operator seeking a large, well-located premises with flexible planning potential and strong passing footfall from nearby retail and transport hubs. The site suits operators who can manage refurbishment and security upgrades to unlock long-term rental or operational value.
