Description
Freehold Workshops/ Storage Close to Town Centre. Two Units with Independent Access and Utilities.
The property is located in Magdalene Road, an established commercial area in Torquay, close to the Town Centre. Its location is favoured by a number of independent service providers, car mechanics and other users requiring storage.
Split into two units, the ground floor unit is a large open area with roller shutter access, making it possible to get a car inside. The first-floor unit consists of workshop, office and storage space.
Both units are separately metered for electric and business rates. Water is shared with the unit next door and is on a sub meter.
The property is versatile and could either be used as one unit for an occupier with storage underneath and lighter workshop/ office above, or the units could be let separately to generate a larger rental income.
