A period double fronted retail/office premises with first and second floor accommodation, part of which is used for commercial purposes together with three flats. The ground floor was formerly arranged as two self-contained shops and retains two entrance doors to either side of the sales area, although has more recently been merged into one unit, subdivided into smaller rooms by means of stud partitioning. The three flats are accessed from the rear and side and are all self-contained and separately metered. Part of the first floor has been used for commercial purposes and is accessed via an internal staircase from the sales area however, this area could very easily be separated from the ground floor, independently accessed via the rear and would provide another one-bedroom flat.
