The premises comprise a converted two storey end of terrace building which has been used for a number of years as a toy shop. Residential accommodation is on the upper floors which has its own access and is rented out separately.
The front section of the property is an L shape retail area which has a prominent frontage to Clarendon Street. The former workshop at the rear has been used for storage purpose beyond which is a further secure store or off street parking space with roller shutter access from Swan Street.
The retail area and rear storage / workshop can be separated by way of an internal roller shutter door (which provides additional security) and additional basic storage is available in the cellar.
The way in which the accommodation could be used is very flexible and the rear section would be ideally suited as a packing and distribution point for an online business.
