A compact, ground-floor retail unit in the centre of historic Kington, offered at auction with immediate vacant possession. The property extends to about 52 sqm (558 sqft) and has a broad shop frontage, making it suitable for small retail, café or specialist service use. Nearby towns, festivals and local amenities help support footfall and seasonal trade.
The building dates from before 1900 and sits in the Kington Conservation Area, giving period character but also potential constraints on external alterations. The unit has double glazing, an EPC rating of D and electric storage heating. The construction includes timber framing with no known insulation, so upgrading thermal performance will be necessary to reduce running costs and improve comfort.
Available on a long lease (125 years from 2017; about 117 years remaining) this is a leasehold purchase and will be sold at auction. Bidding opens and closes on the dates stated; buyers should consult the legal pack for full lease terms and any disbursements. An administration charge of 1.2% (minimum £1,200 inc VAT) is payable on exchange.
For an investor or an owner-occupier wanting a town-centre presence, the unit offers straightforward income or trading potential once basic refurbishment and energy-efficiency improvements are completed. Note the property is vacant and will require works to heating, insulation and any cosmetic repairs before reopening for trade.
