Substantial city-fringe office/storage with basement; refurbishment required.
Freehold commercial building, circa 3,516 sq ft
A substantial freehold office/storage building offering 3,516 sq ft in a city-centre fringe location. The two-storey stone and brick property includes open-plan and private offices, staff WC facilities and a large basement ideal for storage or plant. It is offered at £195,000, presenting clear scope for rental or occupational use.
The building is practical but dated: suspended ceilings, carpeted floors and exposed brickwork remain serviceable but will need modernization to meet current commercial standards. Internal ceiling heights are generally low in parts and some areas appear cluttered; a refurbishment programme would unlock greater rental value or conversion potential for alternative commercial uses.
Location is a key strength — close to Bradford city centre with good transport links and fast broadband connectivity. However, the immediate neighbourhood scores high for crime and is classified as very deprived, which will affect tenant mix and rental assumptions. The plot is small with limited external amenity; on-site parking should not be assumed.
For an investor or owner-occupier seeking a low-entry freehold in a major conurbation, this property offers scale and flexibility. Budget realistically for refurbishment and tenanting strategy that reflects local market conditions and security considerations.
