LOCATION

With over 40,000 inhabitants including nearby villages, Barnstaple is a thriving town near to beautiful beaches and countryside, and the centre of North Devon in commerce, culture, education and service provision. It has a wide variety of businesses attracting tourists and permanent residents year-round, including a vibrant and diverse collection of bars and restaurants for evening footfall. Barnstaple is easily reached via the A361 which leads to the M5 at Junction 27, has a station with hourly trains to Exeter at peak times, and Exeter airport is an hour away. The town is rapidly expanding with several new housing and commercial developments currently underway, and more than 5,000 new houses and further economic development planned for the near future. The notable towns of Bideford (9 miles), Woolacombe (14 miles), Ilfracombe (12 miles), South Molton (12 miles) and Torrington (14 miles) are also nearby.

THE SITUATION

The premises is located opposite the entrance to Barnstaple Central car park. There are a wide variety of retail, office and leisure users in the immediate vicinity with the area having many unique and independent operators as well as Queens Walk Shopping Arcade.

THE PROPERTY

The main property is of 2 storey construction with adjoining single storey rear extension. The ground floor provides a single fronted shop unit with rendered elevations above, under a pitched sate roof. There is also a separate side access which gives an additional access to the commercial parts as well as leading to stairs where a 3 bedroomed maisonette is located.  The deceptively large premises has a ground floor that extends to approximately 2,517 sq.ft (234 sq.m) and consists of shop, workspace, storage as well as former staff kitchen, lounge and conservatory.  There is also a walled parking area from Magdalene Lawn. Residential accommodation consists of a 3 bedroomed maisonette with kitchen, lounge, dining room, utility room and bathroom as well as walled garden area.  It is thought the property is ideally suited to either an owner occupier that requires plenty of ground floor space or an investor/developer looking to create more residential units, potentially 3 more including the existing maisonette, whilst also retaining an element of shop premises, all of which would be subject to suitable planning permissions.

THE PROPOSAL 

Our clients are inviting offers for the Freehold interest.
