Features and description
Situation and description
The premises are prominently positioned in West Street, leading off of Fore Street and linking into Western Way in the centre of Exeter. The main shopping area of Princesshay is a short walk from the property, with the large Cathedral and Quay car park in close proximity. West Street and surrounding retail area has a mix of occupiers including retails, Office and café / Restaurant uses. Exeter is a University City steeped in history being the capital city and county town of Devon and has firmly established a reputation of being the commercial centre for the South West. The city has a population of approximately 110,000 with a ‘drive to work’ population of some 480,000 within a 45 minute catchment area. Exeter has a mainline railway station (London – Paddington) and an international Airport.
The property is currently arranged as a hair salon on the ground and lower ground floors, with a range of treatment rooms on the first and second floors. The property has traded as a hair salon for nearly 20 years and is fitted out as such, but can easily be converted to a Retail Unit, Office or Studio with the upper floors capable of conversion back to a 1 bedroom maisonette, subject to any necessary consents. These flexible premises are available freehold with vacant possession on completion.
