A prominent Grade II listed mid-terrace building in Chard town centre, this freehold office offers a large internal footprint (c. 4,115 sqft) across ground and first floors. The property retains period character — flagstone reception, exposed beams and traditional windows — and is served by mains electricity (3-phase), water and drainage. It is currently fitted as cellular offices with cat II lighting, storage heating and multiple stores/safes.
The central location and substantial internal area present clear opportunities for continued commercial use under Use Class E or for alternative uses such as a mixed town-centre conversion, subject to planning and listed-building consent. A small rear garden and forecourt provide minimal external amenity only; there is no off-street parking and on-street parking is the only option.
Material constraints are significant and must be weighed. Listed status will restrict alterations and likely increase costs for refurbishment or conversion. The building appears to need internal refurbishment to modern standards (services, finishes, accessibility and energy efficiency likely require upgrade). The property sits in an area with high recorded crime and relative socioeconomic deprivation, which may affect some occupier markets.
Suitable purchasers are investors or businesses seeking a characterful town-centre base with potential for refurbishment-led value uplift, or developers experienced with listed conversions. Buyers should commission detailed surveys and pre-application advice on listed-building consent and planning before committing.
