Former Iceland Retail Unit, 65-67 Highgate, Kendal, LA9 4ED

Description
Prominent High Street Retail Premises – Approximately 11,500 sq ft

An exciting and increasingly rare opportunity to lease a substantial retail property occupying a prominent position on Highgate, Kendal’s principal retail thoroughfare.

The property has been occupied by Iceland for approximately 30 years, providing an excellent opportunity for a new occupier to take advantage of an established and highly visible High Street location.

The premises extend to approximately 11,500 sq ft over three floors, with the principal retail accommodation providing a substantial, open-plan sales area with direct level access from Highgate. The property benefits from an extensive fully glazed frontage, providing excellent prominence and natural visibility to passing pedestrian and vehicular traffic.

The scale of the property makes it suitable for a range of potential retail, leisure and other commercial uses, subject to any necessary planning consents.

A further significant benefit is the large public car park located immediately to the rear of the property, together with a number of additional public car parks within the surrounding area, providing convenient access for customers and staff.

Opportunities to secure premises of this size in such a prominent position within Kendal are extremely limited, making this a particularly interesting opportunity for an established retailer or operator seeking a substantial High Street presence.
