Description:
A fabulous opportunity to acquire a very substantial traditional town building with great character and of mixed commercial and residential use. The two parts comprise an impressive six bedroom town house with southerly views over the town and countryside beyond, and a large retail premises in a prime location and extending to around 1600 square feet over two floors.
It is extremely rare to come across such an excellent opportunity to acquire a substantial character property with the potential to serve many family and commercial needs. 36 High Street is a deceptively large building comprising a six bedroomed family home as well as a High Street retail unit with around 1600 square feet of sales area and storage over two floors.
THE HOUSE
The residence lies to the rear of the building and enjoys delightful southerly roof top views beyond the town to open countryside. Whilst some modernisation works may be required, it offers very comfortable and well proportioned family accommodation of six bedrooms, dining room, drawing room, kitchen/breakfast, morning room, conservatory, shower room, bathroom and separate W.C., all arranged over three floors.
THE SHOP
The retail unit has been used for many years as a traditional ironmongers but the available space offers excellent potential for the development of several alternative retail commercial uses. The main retail sales area is divided into two main areas, both with glazed frontage and 10' ceilings and being around 495 square feet and 278 square feet, together with 125 square feet of office. The first floor storage/retail extends to 705 square feet with cellar storage below.
LOCATION
The property occupies an excellent position just off the town centre with direct frontage to the public pavement and rear vehicular access. It stands on the principal retail and business street of the town and is within comfortable distance of all town amenities. The larger towns of Shrewsbury, Ludlow and Newtown are relatively close by and offer a wider range of services and access to the national transport network.
SERVICES
Mains water, electricity and drainage are connected. A solid fuel raeburn in the kitchen runs ground floor radiators and an oil fired boiler runs the first floor radiators.
Note: None of the services or installations have been tested by the agents.
OUTGOINGS
The residential dwelling lies in Band C for council tax purposes.
The retail shop and storage has a rateable value of 3750.
