PLEASE NOTE There is a single room which is part of the adjoining property which over-sails part of the shop area, thus creating a flying freehold.

OUTSIDE Pavement forecourt to the front with a wide area suitable for outside display. A particular feature is the rear garden which is extensive and runs in an "L-shape" providing a surprisingly large area. There are steps up from a lower patio and yard which lead to a carefully manicured and gravelled flower garden with a range of stone outbuildings to one side measuring approximately 5.0m x 2.0m, part of which is two storey. These are in very basic condition, but do provide considerable possibilities for further development. Behind is a further area of garden which has been newly fenced and is mainly laid to lawn with flowerbeds, ornamental shrubs and bushes, etc.

. From here there is a rear pedestrian entrance which leads out to Backfold and from there to the main town carpark.

THE BUSINESS The vendors run a very successful gift and jewellery shop at the property, as well as providing a dry cleaning agency. Should the purchasers wish to continue with the business then any goodwill is included free of charge. Display cupboards and any stock would be available at valuation.

AGENTS COMMENT A rare opportunity to acquire a mixed commercial and residential property at the heart of the town. The property offers considerable flexibility for a variety of uses with its two access points onto Castle Street and with separate rear pedestrian access. Internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the size and quality of the accommodation on offer and the extent of the rear garden.
