The existing property comprises a mixed-use building extending to approximately 9,200 ft2 over basement, ground, first and second floors.
Two self-contained residential flats are finished to a high standard and let on ASTs. There is a self-contained restaurant (A3/E Use) fronting onto Goldsmith Road, let on a 13 year lease from 2017.
The main gallery/exhibition space benefits from a 3.4m ceiling height and D1/E planning consent. The ancillary space is currently used by the owner but could be configured to be used with another part of the property or independently, and is suitable for a variety of uses.
The remainder of the space has been divided into artists’ studios (B1/E) with high ceilings, excellent natural light and period features, mostly occupied by professional artists and creatives who call Staffordshire Street Studios home!
A new roof including solar panels was recently installed, as part of the comprehensive refurbishment by the current owner.
