Description
Centrally located along Newton Stewart's main thoroughfare, this spacious ground-floor retail unit is perfectly positioned to attract customers and is now ready for a new business. The interior includes light-filled front and side sales areas, a rear sales area, an office, and a stock room with access to a rear loading area. Also, for staff use, there is a single toilet/washroom and a kitchen. The floors are of solid concrete and suspended timber construction, topped with practical vinyl, while timber and slat cladding cover some walls. The customer-facing areas also benefit from acoustic tiled ceilings, LED lighting, plentiful free-standing display cabinets, and fridges. Immediately beside the front customer entrance is a raised point-of-sale platform. The former newsagents sit within a traditional mid-terrace, forming part of a two-storey building and, partially, its neighbour. This stone-built property was constructed in the 19th century, with a pitched slate roof and front dormer projection. The adjoining building, in which the unit forms part, is also of stone and slate construction, while the chimney heads are of stone/brick construction. The unit for sale benefits from 20th-century extensions over several levels. These later additions are of stone/brick construction, with a painted render exterior, a series of flat roofs clad in mineral felt/Ruberoid, and a pitched roof with profile metal sheets. The traditional sales frontage boasts a painted render finish and extensive display glazing, with the previous full-width signage already removed. To the rear, timber sash-and-case windows are single-glazed with some lined over internally. Rainwater goods are a mix of lead-lined parapet gutters, cast iron, and PVC. The property is assumed to be connected to the mains water, electricity, and sewer. The hot water system is not fixed but provided by instantaneous electric hot water geysers. NB: This property is being sold in its present condition. No warranty shall be given to any purchaser concerning the existence or condition of services, heating, or other system within the property. It is assumed the title deeds contain no onerous or restrictive conditions and that the existing use complies fully with current planning law.
