Description

Location

The property is located outside of the trading estate to the North East of the Town Centre, within the popular Petersfield Avenue industrial area. The property is well connected positioned within 2 miles of the M4 and walking distance of the town centre. The train station is only a 5 minute walk from the property.

Description

A detached industrial unit, having been constructed in the late 1960's / early 70's, used for light manufacturing for many years. The unit can be found within a 0.628 acre plot, with access from Albion Close & Petersfield Avenue.

The unit has a mixture of accommodation, ranging from low height manufacturing / storage space, office and a main central warehouse of concrete frame with asbestos sheet roofing, benefiting from 4m eaves raising to 5m under the haunch. The main warehouse currently has a mezzanine floor within it, which will remain.

The unit is in need of modernisation throughout. The opportunity would well suit an owner occupier in the motor-trade type industry, continued manufacturing or storage and distribution uses. There is also the potential for redevelopment of the existing building into a single modern industrial, or potentially a terrace of modern small industrial units, subject to planning permission.

The property may also suit leisure uses, like gymnasiums, padel sports or indeed place of worship / gathering, all of which would require a planning permission for the change of use.
