A substantial two-storey Art Deco commercial building occupying approximately 1,316.83 sq m (14,174 sq ft) in central Gainsborough. The property offers a large open-plan ground floor reception and a sizeable first-floor function room, plus ancillary WCs and storage — a flexible envelope suited to retail, leisure or other town-centre uses, subject to planning and consents. Loading access via a rear roller shutter and parking for up to six vehicles aids deliveries and operations.
This opportunity is aimed at investors or operators seeking a prominent high-street presence with scale and adaptability. The building’s solid masonry construction, large upper-level windows and generous floorplates create clear potential for conversion, refurbishment or continued leisure use. It is available by way of a new lease, allowing a new operator to configure the space to specific trading needs, subject to necessary approvals.
Buyers should note material local-market considerations: the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with high crime levels and constrained local incomes, which will affect footfall and trading mix. Uses will require appropriate consents, and prospective occupants should budget for refurbishment and fit-out to bring facilities and décor in line with modern customer expectations. Tenure specifics are unknown — parties should verify lease terms and any building condition requirements before committing.
For the right operator or investor, the scale and central position deliver long-term scope: options include a leisure venue, large-format retail, co‑working/community uses, or a mixed-use redevelopment, subject to planning. Strong mobile and broadband connectivity support contemporary operational needs despite wider socioeconomic challenges.
