Description
Formerly trading as T. Coward & Sons Garage, this property offers an excellent opportunity for either an owner occupier seeking continued commercial use or an investor exploring residential redevelopment potential, with planning previously approved for two dwellings. The existing buildings are of brick and timber construction and are primarily arranged as a workshop with an additional ancillary garage, office, and small store. The main workshop includes an inspection pit providing convenient access to the underside of vehicles, along with a fully installed Dunlop 4-tonne vehicle lift.
The property is situated on Old Road in Whaley Bridge, a popular town within the High Peak district of Derbyshire. Whaley Bridge lies approximately 6 miles north of Buxton and 8 miles south of Stockport, benefiting from convenient access to the A6, which provides excellent connections to the surrounding towns and the wider Manchester and Cheshire areas. The town has a thriving local community with a range of amenities, including shops, cafés, and services, and benefits from a railway station offering regular connections to Manchester Piccadilly and Buxton. The property occupies a well-positioned site close to the town centre, making it suitable for continued automotive use or alternative commercial or residential purposes, subject to planning.
Strictly by appointment only with sole agents Hallams Property Consultants.
The premises are available by way of freehold disposal.
