Westgate, Ripon, North Yorkshire, HG4

FREEHOLD GROUND FLOOR COMMERCIAL UNIT - positioned at the top of High Skellgate with vacant posession on completion!

In the heart of Ripon, positioned at the top of High Skellgate, overlooking the main approach road, is a freehold, double fronted, ground floor commercial unit within 50 yards of the Market Square.

Having been occupied by a gifts & interiors shop for many years, the tenant is due to vacate in March 2025, therefore the property is available to purchase with vacant possession.

The property is of modern condition with the main retail area having strip lighting, Amtico flooring, and neutral decor with a WC to the rear. It lends itself nicely to either an owner occupier or indeed the investor given the variety of businesses that the property would attract when advertised on the rental market.

The property is available to purchase freehold, with the upper floor apartments having been sold off on a long leasehold basis.

The amenities of the main city centre and bus station are just a stones throw away, giving regular transport links to Harrogate and Leeds.







Terms: Freehold. The property is available to purchase with vacant possession on completion of the sale with the upper floor apartments having been sold off on a long leasehold basis.

Rateable Value: £8,600.
Uniform Business Rate for 2024/25: 0.546. Small business rate relief may be available to some occupiers. Further enquiries should be directed to NYC for any rates related matters or queries. FSS will accept no liability for any changes to business rates.
