These particulars have been prepared on a preliminary basis whilst the property is undergoing preparation for re-letting. The landlord intends to clear the premises, undertake redecoration and complete agreed preparatory works to provide the accommodation in a clean shell condition. Updated marketing particulars, photography and specification details may be issued following completion of these works.
Available due to the relocation of the current occupier, the property comprises a substantial self-contained commercial building extending to approximately 3,552 sq ft (329.98 sq m) over ground floor and mezzanine levels.
The premises benefit from a secure concrete service yard providing valuable loading, unloading and vehicle manoeuvring space together with roller shutter loading access and separate pedestrian entrances.
Internally, the principal workshop area provides an open-plan working environment with generous internal dimensions, good natural light via rooflights, fluorescent lighting and exposed roof trusses. The layout is highly flexible and would lend itself to a variety of warehouse, workshop, storage, trade counter, distribution and light industrial uses, subject to any necessary planning consent.
The ground floor accommodation includes a substantial workshop area together with ancillary stores, garage/storage accommodation and additional operational space. The configuration allows occupiers to separate production, storage, administration and dispatch functions where required.
The mezzanine level provides useful additional accommodation including storage areas together with staff facilities, kitchenette provision and WC accommodation. This area could be utilised for storage, administration, product preparation or other ancillary purposes associated with the tenant's business. The property has historically been occupied for motorbike sales and repairs and more recently by a workwear and distribution business, demonstrating its adaptability to a variety of commercial operations.
The landlord intends to present the premises in a clean shell condition and will make available relevant statutory and compliance documentation, including electrical certification, gas safety information (where applicable), roller shutter servicing information, asbestos management documentation and EPC information. Prospective tenants should note that sections of underlay remain within the mezzanine accommodation from a previous floor covering. The landlord proposes to remove the underlay and present the area as a prepared surface ready for the incoming tenant to install a floor finish appropriate to their own occupational requirements.
In addition, two timber-framed windows located on the front elevation have reached the end of their useful economic life. The landlord intends to replace these with modern uPVC units following lease completion or within a reasonable period thereafter. Overall, the property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to secure versatile and self-contained commercial accommodation within Southport town centre, benefiting from dedicated loading facilities, ancillary accommodation and excellent accessibility.
