Edgworth Road, Sudbury, Suffolk, CO10

LOCATION
Sudbury itself is a busy and expanding market town with a population of around 25,000
(including Gt Cornard) but which serves a much wider catchment area. The town has seen
considerable growth in recent years and development is ongoing at the long-awaited Chilton
Woods development which will provide a further 1,000 new homes. There are branch line train
services from Sudbury to London via Marks Tey, taking around 70 minutes and Stansted Airport
is about 40 minutes' drive away. The towns of Colchester, Bury St Edmunds and Chelmsford
are approximately 15, 17 and 29 miles distant respectively and the county town of Ipswich is
located 21 miles to the east.

DESCRIPTION
The property comprises a detached single storey industrial building constructed of concrete
blockwork walls under a pitched roof to the front and a flat concrete roof to the rear. The
premises were formerly occupied for many years by ATS, as a tyre and exhaust service centre.
Offering versatile industrial use and providing around 4,500 sq ft of workshop and offices, the
property would ideally suit a purchaser in the motor trade, alternatively the premises could
readily be split into smaller units if desired, with each main section having its own vehicular
access door. Please note that the following measurements and areas are approximate:

WORKSHOP
& OFFICES Gross Internal Area: 4,778 sq ft

The above area incorporates the following sections:

FRONT WORKSHOP: 32' x 16'6" And 25' x 20' providing 1028 sq ft

CENTRAL RECEPTION/ 40'4" x 25'2" providing 1015 sq ft
OFFICES

CENTRAL WORKSHOP: 25' x 20'4" providing 508 sq ft

REAR WORKSHOP: L-shaped 61'3" x 27'10" AND 27'9" x 18'10" providing 2227 sq ft

OUTSIDE
Double gates open to an extensive surfaced yard area providing parking for around 20 vehicles
with additional parking available to the front of the premises.
The yard is enclosed to three boundaries by security mesh fencing and the site in total extends to
around 0.35 acre.

EPC: Rating E valid until 19th May 2029

VAT: The property is not elected for VAT.

PLANNING
The existing use falls within Class B2 as it has been used for a variety of motor related uses.
However, the site offers potential for future commercial redevelopment. Planning Permission
was recently refused for the demolition of the existing building and the erection of 9 mixed use
units. The vendor appealed the decision, but the appeal was dismissed. However, both the refusal and appeal decision indicate that redevelopment for uses falling within the new Class E (light industrial, office or retail) would receive favourable consideration.

TERMS
The premises are available FOR SALE at Offers in the region of £349,000 for the Freehold.
