Description
The property comprises a former restaurant that has now been split to provide three retail units to the basement and ground floors with a single, three bed, flat to the upper parts.
The ground floor unit with the frontage to Market Street is used as a barber shop and comprises a work area to the front with a bar space that has been retained from the former restaurant use. There is a waiting area to the rear with a small storage/staff area to the rear as well as a WC.
The ground floor rear unit is accessed from the rear, but the link to the front units has been retained for future use if required. The rear unit is used as a salon and is therefore fitted out with two rows of chairs and associated equipment, there is a small store as well as a few rooms used for tanning areas and other uses associated with the occupiers trade.
The basement unit is accessed from the rear and is used as a complimentary service to the salon. The unit is currently undergoing a redecoration with the existing tenant which is due for completion in time for the easing of Covid restrictions.
There is private parking to the rear of the property as well as a large public car park.
The first floor is used as a three bedroom flat and is let on a rolling six month AST. The flat is used by the operator of the nearby Subway franchise and provides accommodation for staff.
