A freehold commercial site on a large plot in Stowmarket, currently arranged as an MOT bay, mechanics workshop and car-sales forecourt. The premises generate approximately £24,000pa with tenants in situ, offering immediate income and scope to improve returns.
The site is a former petrol station and car wash, giving clear redevelopment potential for automotive services, trade counter use or a broader commercial scheme subject to planning. Practical assets include an industrial garage/workshop, MOT bay and a sizeable open-air forecourt with garage parking.
Notable considerations: the site will need investment and professional surveys before redevelopment — historic fuel use may require contamination assessment and remediation. Some buildings appear tired and will need refurbishment to maximise rental value or sale prospects. Mobile and broadband connectivity are average, and the property sits in a very low-crime, affluent village setting with local amenities and schools nearby.
This opportunity will suit an investor or operator familiar with automotive or light-industrial businesses, or a buyer prepared to fund remediation and conversion work to unlock higher returns or alternative commercial uses.
