  • No VAT payable on the rent

The property comprises a pair of self-contained ground-floor offices, offering flexible accommodation suitable for single or multiple occupiers.

Access is via a single entrance at the front, leading into a lobby area. This space can serve as a communal area if the offices are let separately, or as a reception or breakout area for a single occupier. The unit provides two self-contained offices, each with its own lockable entrance.

The front lobby/reception area also includes WC facilities, comprising a disabled WC and mixed WCs.

The Office Suite 1 is located straight ahead. It features a large open-plan layout, a kitchenette with a separate small room to the left, and stairs on the right leading to a rectangular mezzanine level.

The Office Suite 2 is situated to the right of the reception area and comprises a large open-plan room with a separate substantial kitchen.

Both offices benefit from their own designated fire escape routes.

Accordingly, the property offers flexibility to be let either as a whole or in part, depending on occupier requirements.

Location
