Vacant Unit, West Yorkshire

VACANT RETAIL / COMMERCIAL PREMISES in Brighouse to Let.

An excellent opportunity to acquire a prominently positioned town centre retail unit in the heart of Brighouse.

The property has been successfully occupied by our client for a number of years as a well-established prom dress retailer and is only being brought to the market as a result of their relocation to larger premises. Please note that the property will not be available for prom or wedding-related retail uses.

Occupying a highly visible trading position within Brighouse town centre, the premises are situated adjacent to Halifax Bank and benefit from the significant town centre regeneration programme currently underway, which will create an enhanced pedestrian-friendly environment. A particular feature of the property is its dual frontage onto both Bethel Street and West Park Street, providing excellent visibility, strong branding potential and prominent display opportunities.

The premises offer considerable flexibility and are suitable for a variety of retail, leisure and commercial uses. For convenience retail operators, the property provides the opportunity to create a comprehensive store offering chilled, frozen, grocery and household goods, subject to any necessary consents and the grant of a premises licence for the sale of alcohol. The open-plan sales area allows for efficient merchandising and customer circulation.

Alternatively, the property would make an outstanding showroom for flooring, kitchens, bathrooms, furniture, home improvement products or other display-led retail businesses. Its substantial trading area, accessible location and extensive frontage create an ideal environment for showcasing products whilst maintaining ample stock and storage accommodation.

The premises would also be well suited to cafe, restaurant, bar or hospitality uses, benefiting from proximity to a number of established food, drink and evening economy operators, subject to the appropriate planning and licensing consents.

The property is held on a secure lease at a highly competitive rent for such a prominent town centre location. Accommodation comprises a double-fronted retail unit providing spacious split-level, air-conditioned sales space. The first floor incorporates two storerooms, staff kitchen / rest facilities and WC accommodation. In addition, there is a basement cellar, which has not been utilised in recent years. The property also benefits from electric roller shutters for enhanced security.
