Seafront retail opportunity near a large residential community.
Large Class E unit — approximately 3,649 sq ft (339 sq m) open-plan space
Set within the redeveloped Royal Haslar estate, this large Class E unit offers 3,649 sq ft (approx 339 sq m) of open-plan retail space beneath high ceilings and arched Victorian windows. The building’s historic brick facade and generous frontage create strong kerb appeal and scope for a distinctive shop fit-out serving a nearby seafront residential community of over 800 units. On-site parking and easy pedestrian access support customer footfall from both local residents and visitors to the waterfront.
This is effectively a blank canvas for an operator or investor prepared to complete a commercial fit-out and convert the layout for retail use. The property benefits from low local crime, no flood risk, excellent mobile signal and a large plot — positives for everyday trading and deliveries. The surrounding area is affluent overall but includes social-renting young families and ageing urban communities, offering a mixed but reliable customer base.
Buyer note: tenure is unknown and will require verification before purchase. Broadband speeds are reported slow, which may necessitate a wired upgrade for modern retail technology. The unit is being offered at £400,000; VAT may apply. Practical considerations include fitting out, utilities checks and confirming any planning or Class E usage constraints. For an operator seeking prominent seaside retail in a landmark redevelopment, this presents clear upside once commercial terms and services are confirmed.
