The rear ancillary accommodation comprises a range of various size storage and office rooms, which were previously occupied for use as a repair workshop.
We advise that the subject premises has been extended significantly to the rear, which appears to accommodate the majority of the site, with the exception of the a small external parking area providing designated parking for approximately 2-3 vehicles. Additional parking may also be available over part of the adjoining rear yard but we advise that this allocated parking area is also available to the public.
It is also advised that the subject premises was previously occupied for use as a sales showroom and repair shop, professional offices and more recently a music studio. We therefore advise that the subject premises is suitable for a range of alternative commercial uses (subject to the necessary statutory consents).
