Letting agreed. Retail unit to let on Bedford Place in Southampton. Shop comprises an open-plan ground floor space plus basement.

The property comprises a recently refurbished open-plan retail unit at ground floor level with basement level currently configured to provide useful ancillary storage space and an office. It is prominently situated in Bedford Place, in an area of high footfall, and the location is popular with independent boutique retailers, hair and beauty salons, cafés, bars and restaurants.

The retail space is broadly rectangular in shape with wood flooring and partly-exposed brickwork, and the ground floor also offers a WC, sink and dishwasher. The photos shown are from our prior instruction and will be updated post-inspection, but the fixtures and fittings previously included a CCTV system, internal security shutter, air-conditioning unit, serving counter and shelf untis. The property also had an alcohol licence permitting sales, both on and off the premises, from 9am – 11pm daily (except Sundays until 10pm), and we will need to verify if this is still in effect.
