Station Street Buildings comprises an imposing stone built three storey and basement Grade II Listed building which has most recently been used for offices. Whilst the preference is to let the premises as a whole for ongoing commercial use, they do offer the potential to be split (the lower ground floor can be let in isolation).
The existing layout provides a series of private offices, larger general offices, meeting rooms, reception along with ancillary accommodation.
Location
Station Street Buildings is situated on the junction of St Peters Street with Station Street which connects Westgate with Railway Street/St Georges Square within Huddersfield town centre. St Georges Square includes Huddersfield railway station – which is both visible and within close walking distance of Station Street Buildings – providing excellent communication links across the North of England in particular on the Trans Pennine train route connecting Leeds with Manchester (and presently subject to a significant upgrade).
In addition, being located within Huddersfield ring road the property is accessible to all main arterial routes - in particular the exceptionally busy A62 Leeds Road - and within 3.5 miles of both Junction 23 (west only) and Junction 24 of the M62.
Only a short distance from Station Street Buildings, just outside Huddersfield ring road, is the proposed redevelopment of the former Huddersfield Sports Centre site which is to become a new National Health Innovation Campus for Huddersfield University.
