Retail Warehouse in City Re-Development Area

Posted on 28th July 2010

A prominent trade counter retail warehouse is available to let in an up and coming area on Blackpool Road, Ashton on Ribble. Opposite the Carphone Warehouse call centre the property is within easy walking distance of shops and local amenities at the busy Lane Ends junction. The property offers 8,000 sq ft of space over two floors which could be suitable for a variety of uses, subject to planning.

Claire Eccleston, Retail Surveyor at Robert Pinkus & Co. said, “This sizeable property offers a great retail prospect in an up and coming area of Preston. Tulketh Mill opposite the property has been redeveloped to provide an excellent base for the Carphone Warehouse and there is an attractive residential development of one and two bed apartments situated in the next block. With approved plans in the pipeline for a mixed use development on the Tulketh Mill site that will incorporate 51 new apartments, retail, bar and restaurant opportunities, a hotel and conference centre, as well as improvements in local transport systems and cycle routes, this property is in a prime spot to capitalise on the proposed redevelopment of the area.”

The brick built building has a side yard with security gate, sales area at the front of the ground floor at the front and warehouse/workshop to the rear. The warehouse features two loading doors and the first floor offers additional offices, staff kitchen and WCs. All windows and doors are protected by electric roller shutters and the property is alarmed.

The property is available by way of an existing lease due to expire in 2021 at a figure of £46,500 per annum and incentives are available to attract a new occupier. Interested parties such make enquiries at the local planning office on 01772 906588.
