Large roadside retail units next to major national retailers and proposed Aldi.
Prominent two-storey corner retail building with extensive glazed frontage
A prominent two-storey out-of-town retail building offering substantial floorplate and strong roadside visibility in a busy retail park. The property sits adjacent to national occupiers including Pets at Home, TK Maxx and a proposed Aldi, delivering customer footfall and clear rental potential for retail, trade counter or drive-thru uses. Planning has previously been granted for a drive-thru refurbishment (ref C22/0715/11/LL) and A3 consent exists for adjacent unit(s), improving flexibility for food and leisure operators.
The two units are offered together: Unit 1 (2,850 sq ft plus 740 sq ft mezzanine, current income £55,000pa), Unit 2 (2,285 sq ft, current income £35,000pa). The building features extensive glazed frontage, high ceilings and dedicated customer parking, making it suitable for a range of operators seeking prominent roadside presence. The overall practical plot is primarily hardstanding for parking with limited landscaping.
Important considerations: the site sits in a very deprived area with a high local crime rate and very slow broadband speeds, which may influence certain occupiers and valuations. Tenure is not stated and VAT is payable on the asking price; interested parties should confirm tenure, service charges and any outstanding planning conditions. This property will suit investors or owner-occupiers targeting convenience retail, drive-thru or trade counter operators who prioritise visibility and adjacent anchor tenants.
