The property is constructed over 4 levels.
The ground floor is currently a single retail unit but was originally two separate units and this configuration could be reinstated. The retail area is mainly open plan and has the benefit of a kitchen and two WC's.
Access to the residential accommodation is at the rear of the property accessed off New Road. There is a large carpark area at the rear which could be converted to a garden area if required. There is parking for at least 6 cars.
The entrance to the flat provides stairs to the basement area and the first and second floor accommodation. The first floor is set out with a number of separate and interconnecting rooms including separate bathroom and kitchen. The accommodation would provide 3 bedrooms with potential for further space at second floor level where the roof space has been partly converted and includes rooflights.
