⸻
premises:
The property occupies a prominent position on The Street in Poringland, an area experiencing residential growth and strong local demand. The premises benefit from off-road parking for up to four vehicles at the front and are fully double-glazed throughout. Entry to the business is via a part-glazed front door into the customer-facing takeaway area, which includes a service counter, tiled flooring, and a suspended ceiling with inset lighting, creating a traditional and welcoming first impression.
Behind the customer service counter, the commercial space is well laid out and fully equipped. The kitchen includes a large stainless steel extractor over a five wok gas range, a further six-burner gas range with double oven, a double floor-standing fryer, bain-maries, stainless steel workbenches, sinks with drainers, and a comprehensive selection of refrigeration equipment. This includes two tall Polar fridges, a double-door Foster fridge, a double-door Ilsa fridge, three chest freezers, and a tall Hotpoint freezer. The kitchen is fitted with non-slip flooring and has a practical layout for efficient operation.
Further rooms at ground level include a hallway with stairs leading to the upstairs flat bedrooms, a staff W.C. And shower room, which would be used by the flat bedrooms as well, an office/store, and an additional rear storage area. The rear courtyard is ideal for operational use, featuring a concrete floor with drainage suitable for wash-down, a lean-to roof for partial cover, an external stainless steel sink with drainer, and a brick-built external store. Access is available from the side/rear via double gates, providing convenient access.

accommodation:
The residential accommodation is extensive and versatile, arranged over two floors and offering scope for various configurations. The ground floor of the house features a spacious entrance hall with its own front door, a cloakroom with W.C. And basin, and a large reception room with ample space for both dining and lounge areas. This room benefits from natural light via windows to the front and side elevations.
The kitchen/diner includes a range of fitted base and wall units with worktops, a gas hob with extractor, built-in oven, and spaces for a fridge/freezer, washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher. A sink with drainer and a window to the side elevation complete the space, which is finished with vinyl flooring.
On the first floor of the main house, there are five bedrooms in total. These include a front double bedroom with window, another double to the side/front with two windows, a small single/cot room, and a further rear double. Additionally, there is a large rear bedroom that has been split into two areas via a wide archway. Each area has its own window, and one includes a built-in cupboard. This space could be reconfigured to form part of the upstairs flat by installing a new access door to the flat landing and closing off the internal archway, subject to planning and building regulations. The first floor also includes a family bathroom with W.C., basin, and bath with mixer shower over.
The upstairs flat is accessed via a separate staircase from the commercial area and includes a landing, two double bedrooms, and one single room. While the flat currently shares the downstairs staff bathroom, there is potential to upgrade or install a dedicated bathroom area to improve its functionality as a self-contained unit.
Overall, the accommodation is highly flexible and could be adapted to suit a range of needs, from owner occupation to staff or tenant use and so viewing of this property is highly recommended.
