Workshop-Style Commercial Property with Versatile Potential

The Property - The Ark is a renowned antique centre located in the heart of Yetminster, offering an exciting opportunity to acquire a freehold property complete with its existing fitout. While currently functioning as an antique centre, this versatile space STPP (subject to planning permission) lends itself to a variety of other uses. The current stock can be purchased separately by negotiation at an additional cost.

The premises comprises a purpose-built, workshop-style building featuring a distinctive "dockway" style of access. It has been thoughtfully transformed into an inviting antique centre, incorporating a charming street scene aesthetic with individual 'shops' accessible off a central walkway. The property benefits from a small café, office space, and attractive ornate interior design. Constructed from traditional brick with a striking timber-framed roof, finished with fibrous cement panels, the building offers approximately 229 sqm (2,464 sqft) of flexible commercial space.
