A double-fronted retail unit on Braintree High Street offering clear investment potential. The 865 sq ft ground-floor shop sits within the refurbished former Litten Tree public house and benefits from a modern fitted shopfront, large display windows and capped services — ready for tenant fit-out.
Positioned on a busy pedestrian pitch close to George Yard, the location promises strong footfall from nearby multiples, cafés and local amenities. Being freehold means long-term control of the asset and flexibility over leasing or occupation.
The unit is delivered as a shell: this reduces initial construction complexity but requires an incoming tenant or owner to complete internal fit-out and connections. Crime levels in the area are very high, which may affect operating costs, insurance premiums and suitable trading uses. Broadband is fast and flood risk is low, supporting business continuity.
Priced at £175,000, this is a straightforward opportunity for investors seeking a prominent high-street presence or an owner-occupier prepared to finish the internal specification and manage security considerations.
