Prime Town Centre Retail Opportunity with Planning Permission for two bedroom apartment

Currently arranged as a lock-up shop at ground floor with a stair up to associated storage and kitchen / toilet facilities over part of the first floor.

Under the granted Planning consent, the first floor would be transformed into a spacious apartment with open plan kitchen / dining / living space together with two generous bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The apartment and commercial spaces are fully separated but together, could offer and excellent life / work arrangement.
