Most recently occupied as an antiques centre, the premises has a good amount of parking to the front within an area that extends to approximately 2,166 sq.ft (201.25 sq.m).

The premises are constructed with steel portal frames and brick elevations beneath an insulated corrugated roof with a combination of powder coated aluminium and PVCu double glazed windows and doors. The main showroom is accessed via double doors into the reception area which sits beneath a steel framed mezzanine floor upon which a single office, staff kitchenette and WC have been constructed. The premises form one half of a building which has been divided centrally to create two self-contained units with a shared pitched roof. Consequently, the showroom has a mono-pitch roof with a maximum eaves' height of 6.6m and a minimum eaves height of 4.0m. The premises offer a light and versatile retail space with a good degree of natural daylight which is supplemented by LED strip lights suspended on chains. There is a gas fired space heater and ceiling fans to recirculate warm air during the cooler months. The premises have a modern electricity consumer board, 3-phase power and sufficient power sockets to meet most occupier's requirements. The retail space benefits from a manually operated roller shutter door in addition to pedestrian entrances at the front and into the yard space to the side. The unit comprises the main showroom with three additional areas which could also be used for retailing, storage or workshop uses. Two of these are approximately 9.93m deep by 4.36m wide, with the third 4.46m wide. These spaces each have access to the side yard, area 1 (closest to the main showroom) has a full mezzanine floor and a single WC partitioned off at ground floor level; this is served by a pedestrian door. Area 2 has pedestrian access with a steel security shutter and Area 3 has a steel roller shutter door with separate pedestrian access to the side. The units are sub-divided with concrete blockwork partition walls which could enable these units to be put to a number of uses or sub-let, subject to the landlord's consent.

The premises benefit from mains water/ drainage, gas and electricity (3-phase).

The premises have most recently been used as an antiques centre (retail showroom with outdoor displays/ architectural salvage yard). Interested parties should enquire with East Devon District Council to confirm if the premises have the appropriate planning consent for their intended use.
