This freehold retail unit sits on Lowther Gardens in Grange-Over-Sands, positioned for good street visibility and steady local footfall. The ground-floor layout (approximately 565 sq ft) combines an open-plan trading area with separate private office, additional rear office, kitchenette and staff cloakroom — practical for owner-occupiers or letting to a small business.
The property benefits from large street-facing windows, electric heating and air-conditioning units, and a paved rear yard for deliveries or storage. Previously operated as a building society, the interior provides a sensible customer-facing arrangement including a branch counter and glazed partitions that preserve sightlines while creating private workspace.
Notable positives include freehold tenure, central high-street location in an affluent, low-crime town, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for modern retail, services or office use. There is no flood risk and local amenities and good primary/secondary schools are nearby, supporting steady daytime trade in this small-town setting.
Buyers should note some fabric and upgrade considerations. Image records describe the building as a mid-20th-century unit that may need repair (flat roof noted) and the glazing is single‑glazed, which may require improvement for energy efficiency. The suspended ceiling with fluorescent lighting is functional but dated, so cosmetic or M&E upgrades could be needed depending on end use.
Priced at £95,000, this compact, well-located unit offers straightforward occupation or rental potential for investors or local operators prepared to complete modest refurbishment works to enhance energy performance and long-term durability.
