A prominently positioned property in the town which has been home to some notable businesses over the years, Cherry & Symes is a mixed residential and commercial property with huge potential. Many local people will remember it as a garage, some as a shop and more recently, it’s been used as stores and a flat. It’s not listed but does sit in the conservation area and the façade has been unchanged for many years.

The Flat

On the second floor is a huge bedroom (could be 2 rooms) and a 3rd bedroom which has built in storage. The flat is empty and ready to let bringing an immediate income of approx. £800pcm

The Stores
With 3 separate vehicle entrances, it has huge potential. Overall it is approx. 2987 sqft. The ground floor has 2 garages, the former kitchen area, a WC and then the larger main store/retail/workshop space. Stairs lead to the first floor and up again to the second floor. It has been used for many years as stores and is rated as such with the valuation office. With the ability to drive in, work/store it’s a fairly unique opportunity for trades to have a base whilst gaining an income from the flat upstairs, or indeed, use as storage or even apply for planning to convert the commercial element to residential.
