Description

The rectangular site extends to approximately 0.62 acres and comprises a predominantly concrete-surfaced yard, with part of the site finished in slate chippings.

The site has been partitioned with timber fencing to create smaller parcels within the wider plot.

The site is secured by timber fencing to the perimeter with the frontage to the B6254 finished in stone. Access is provided directly from the B6254.

The depot occupies a prominent position on the Kirkby Lonsdale Road in Carnforth, ideally situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and within easy reach of the Lake District.

The property benefits from excellent road connectivity, with Junction 35 of the M6 motorway nearby, providing convenient access to Lancaster, Kendal, the wider North West, and the national motorway network.

Carnforth town centre is close at hand and offers a range of local amenities including shops, supermarkets, cafés, schools, and a railway station with direct services to Lancaster, Barrow-in-Furness, and Leeds.

The surrounding area is characterised by attractive countryside and well-established walking and cycling routes.
