Description

37-39 Vicar lane comprises a 3-storey building with a profile metal sheet façade. The Ground floor unit is uniform in shape and provides an attractive double fronted shop unit which could suit a variety of occupiers and uses (STP). Internally the unit benefits from having a good floor-to-ceiling height, plenty of natural light from the existing shop front and characterful exposed brickwork internally. Towards the rear there is an existing doorway in situ that leads to the rear service yard with access to a dedicated bin store.

Once planning is approved the building is set to undergo redevelopment, which will include the conversion of the first & second floors into two residential apartments leaving a commercial unit on the ground floor. The existing doorway into the commercial unit will be brought forward, including a new glazed shop front to be installed. The internal accommodation will be handed over in shell and core condition, with capped off services including water and electricity ready for the tenant to connect to as part of their fit out.
