Roadside Site, Durham Way South, Newton Aycliffe DL5 6XN

The property occupies a corner position at the junction of Durham Way South and Rembrandt Way on the Aycliffe Industrial Estate, Newton Aycliffe, County Durham.
The site has frontage to both roads and sits within an established commercial area.

The property comprises a detached single-storey building of brown brick construction beneath a flat roof with a pale clad fascia. A lower single-storey projection with a steel entrance door adjoins the building, and the side elevation still carries its former café signage.

The building is set within a tarmac forecourt with a low brick retaining wall, and a landscaped corner of grass and mature birch trees faces the road junction. The building is currently vacant and offers scope for refurbishment or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents.

The building is in poor condition and will require significant refurbishment if it is to be reused. The roof does appear sound, but otherwise buyers will need to make their own investigations as to the suitability of the building construction.
