Description

This mid-terraced, steel portal framed workshop/warehouse provides some 1,500 sq.ft. of accommodation on the ground floor and has a substantial mezzanine of a little under 900 sq.ft above which has been extended to incorporate a small kitchen and office facility but is primarily used as further workshop space in the unit's current configuration.
The unit benefits from an eaves height of 19ft rising to an apex of 24ft 2in, with a minimum clear height under the mezzanine of some 8ft 9in.
The unit is accessed via an up-and-over folding door which is 9ft 9in wide by 13ft high. Additionally there is a separate personnel door and a further fire escape to the rear of the premises. There is a good level of natural daylight admitted to the premises via skylights to the roof and glazing and both front and rear elevations.
On the first floor a small office of approximately 90 sq.ft. has been constructed overlooking the front forecourt, with a small kitchen area of 40 sq.ft behind it. Externally there are three car parking spaces to the front of the unit.

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.

Rivers and the sea

Very low risk

Planning map: Flood Zone 3.

Surface water

High risk (1 in 30)

Important notice: Information, maps and tags on this page are drawn from the advertising agent's marketing materials or generated automatically. LandSale has not verified them. Relying on these details is at your own risk, always carry out independent checks before committing to a purchase.
