Retail property (high street) to rent

Spacious ground floor retail unit situated in prime position on London Road North.

Full Description - A fantastic opportunity has arisen to secure a lease to a spacious commercial unit in a prime location on London Road North, Lowestoft.

Just a stone’s throw from Lowestoft train station and bus station, and nestled amongst other national chains such as Taco Bell, Subway, Costa Coffee, HSBC and Nationwide, the property is perfectly located for a big brand to expand into Lowestoft and take advantage of the regions growing popularity.

Travelling up London Road North the character changes: the variety of national brands invite you to browse and shop, while side streets boast independent vintage stores and craft shops.

Further up glimpsed views of PowerPark and the North Sea on the horizon from the top of London Road North are a reminder of Lowestoft’s unique easterly location that creates opportunities for the town’s prosperity, as it has done for centuries. The northern end of London Road North is home to exciting start up offices and spaces.

The town centre is a social place; public spaces work well for people of all abilities; streets and squares are clean, green and free from clutter; people enjoy socialising and basking in the sun.

There is a strong sense of ownership and pride in the community, empowered by taking part in the process of regenerating the centre. This sense of pride is underpinned by great efforts to ensure the town’s climate resilience: construction of flood barriers, adoption of sustainable and low carbon solutions for how new spaces, buildings and retrofits are delivered and managed.

This property is unique and exciting opportunity for a company to harness and tap into the regeneration which is happening in Lowestoft, and across the East Coast in general.

With a growing population looking to settle down in a coastal location, and a tourism market boosted by a fresh desire to holiday within the UK, Lowestoft has a great combination of customers to drive your business forward and continue to grow.

GROUND FLOOR
The ground floor has a large frontage, perfect for showing off your companies products and services to the thousands of people passing by every day.

Once you’ve entered the property there is a large, open plan retail area which is roughly 12m x 10m. Beyond this, due to the nature of the previous tenants business, there is a conveyor belt going from the ground to the first floor which was used to quickly and efficient move items from the stock room to the main retail floor, so this could be removed or utilised by the new tenant depending on their requirements.

There is a small stock room on the left hand side and beyond that is a large storage area, measuring approximate 12m x 18m. This was previously used as an area to keep stock, however this could be suitable for retail or restaurant use for the new tenant.
To the rear of the ground floor are 2x smaller storage rooms, a staircase leading to the first floor, an electric roller door for rear access and a fire exit.

The lease terms are flexible and the current asking price for the rent will start at £24,000 per year, with a rent review due after the second year to reflect market rates at the time.
