The property is offered by way of a new full repairing and insuring lease for a term to be agreed but subject to a minimum period of 3 years.

Rent

£45,000 per annum. We are informed that the property is not registered for VAT, so there is NO VAT on the rent.

The Valuation Office website lists the property as having a Rateable Value effective from 1st April 2026 of £45,250.
The full rates payable for 2026/27 are therefore £19,548.

Energy Performance Certificate

The building has a current Energy Performance Certificate in Band D. Following the upgrade of the internal lighting to LED fittings and the removal of the defunct heating units in the property, it will be reassessed and new EPC issued.

Uses

The property has most recently been used as a warehouse, but has previously been used for light industrial purposes. We believe the property would also be ideal for a trade counter use.
