SUBSTANTIAL COMMERCIAL GARAGE & WORKSHOP | APPROX. 3,250 SQ. FT. ACROSS TWO FLOORS | ESTABLISHED MOTOR TRADE PREMISES | INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
Whitegates are delighted to bring to the market this substantial commercial garage and workshop, formerly home to the renowned Aintree Automatic Transmissions for over 35 years.
Offering approximately 3,250 square feet of accommodation across two floors, based on the supplied room measurements, this is a fantastic opportunity for investors, established motor trade operators or those looking to acquire their own commercial premises.
The property benefits from two large roller shutter garage entrances, forecourt space to the front, three vehicle ramps, office accommodation, WC facilities and multiple additional workshop and storage areas.
For investors, the property offers attractive rental potential, with an estimated rental income of up to £1,500-£1750 per calendar month (£18,000-£21,000 per annum), subject to refurbishment, market conditions and tenant demand.
Having operated as a motor vehicle workshop for many years, the premises would now benefit from a programme of refurbishment and modernisation throughout. This provides an excellent opportunity for an incoming purchaser to adapt the accommodation to their own requirements or explore alternative commercial uses, subject to the necessary consents.
ACCOMMODATION
The premises are arranged across two floors, comprising four principal areas on the ground floor and three additional rooms on the first floor, providing flexible space suitable for a variety of business requirements.
