Property Description

A freehold three storey end of terrace commercial unit previously used as office space and prior to that occupied and built to Lloyds Bank Specification located on Gooch Street, Birmingham. The building has been vacant for several years and is in need of refurbishment. The property comprises Ground Floor, Basement and First floor and extends approximately 3010sq ft. The property benefits from roller shutters externally and parking to the front. The property would lend itself well to a residential scheme (subject to planning approval) owing to its location within an area of significant regeneration. The building lies within the A4540 inner Ring Road and borders the zones of Digbeth, Highgate and the Chinese Quarter. Major regeneration has already taken place opposite the building with several thousands of apartments also due to be developed at the site of the former Monaco house less than 1/4 mile away. VAT will be not applicable. Interested parties are advised to inspect the legal pack for more information. Vacant possession upon completion.

Please note:

Business rates apply.


Please note:

The building has been unused for 18 years and is in need of total refurbishment. When the auctioneer's representative visited the property, water was found in the cellar. To our knowledge, no structural survey has been conducted.
