Site Description
The existing property was previously utilised as a supermarket on the ground floor with first floor storage and 1 x 3 bedroom flat fronting Cooden Sea Road. Site with planning consent for alterations and extensions of existing building as former supermarket (A1) on the ground floor, store and 1 No flat (C3) on the first floor to provide 3 commercial units (A1/A2) and 2 flats (C3) on the ground floor, 4 flats on the first floor and 3 flats on the second floor. Internal access is highly recommended to view the commercial units as they would only need minimal works due to them already being in a shell and core condition.
