Location: Positioned in Royal Square in the heart of Bowness village on the main thoroughfare. Leaving our Windermere office take New Road and continue down into Bowness. The Shop can be found just after the roundabout opposite Tesco and also has street frontage to Ash Street.
Property Overview: Owned by the same family since the 1970s, the sale provides a relatively rare chance to purchase a freehold unit in the centre of Bowness On Windermere having both good frontage to the main Lake Road and also to the pedestrian street of Ash Street.
Historically it's been two units and subject to the necessary consents this may be possible again to maximise the potential rental income.
The layout is split into a 2 storey shop unit fronting Lake Road, with good window displays and this part of the building could well date to perhaps the 1850s. The rear much smaller area fronting Ash Street is a much more recent addition and again is 2 storey and has a connecting doorway on the ground floor.
We understand the main roof was re-roofed in 2007, with the smaller roof for the rear section being done 2009.
Whilst it is the intension of the owners to sell the freehold they may consider letting the property at a rent of £30,000 pa.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
