17 The Bridge

Description

17 The Bridge is situated in the parish of St Sampson in the heart of Guernsey’s second main retail centre. Being positioned along the main pitch, it benefits from a good provision of onstreet parking immediately outside, it is also directly adjacent to a number of other retail outlets. Other occupiers nearby include Costa Coffee, Boots, Lloyds Bank, the popular northside Chip Shop, as well as a number of other locally owned independent retailers. With the Bridge being Guernsey’s second main retail centre, the Subject Property benefits from excellent footfall and good passing trade. Whilst the surrounding area already enjoys predominantly high density residential usage, the planned residential and commercial redevelopments of Leale’s Yard and the former Saltpans Data Park (now owned by the Guernsey Housing Association) will increase surrounding population density (These two developments alone propose more than 500 new homes). The Subject Property's position means that a wide range of alternative uses could be considered, including medical uses and those from within the hospitality sectors. The available premises comprises a self-contained retail unit with excellent frontage. It is arranged to provide retail space over single ground floor level with suspended ceilings, recessed LED lighting, air conditioning and vinyl flooring. The sloped entrance also provides disabled access with automatically opening entrance doors. The unit is currently operated as a local supermarket so benefits from additional storage, bakery and staff offices to the rear. There is also additional rear access for delivery of goods, with goods lift allowing easy access to further extensive dry storage in the basement. The landlord is proposing to remove some elements of the existing fixtures and fit
