The property comprises a shop unit with an excellent frontage and arranged over ground and basement floors. The ground floor is in first class condition and provides a good sales floor. In the basement there is additional sales accommodation along with kitchen and toilet facilities and a fire escape leading to the rear courtyard.
Location
The property occupies a fantastic location on the popular Byres Road, at the heart of Glasgow’s West End. Byres Road is an extremely busy road and the surrounding area benefits from high density and good quality housing stock. The property also benefits from its proximity to Glasgow University and Hillhead Underground Station.
Whilst Byres Road has a very strong retail component, it also benefits from a wide range of other uses including many bars, restaurants and coffee shops, covering both multiple and niche occupiers, and which combine to create a vibrant environment with strong dwell time throughout the day and into the evening.
The shop is situated on the west side of the street in the block between Highburgh Road and Havelock Street and other occupiers in the immediate vicinity include Tinderbox Coffee Shop, Charles Clinkard, Save The Children, Clyde Property, Oxfam Music, Bar Soba, Kember & Jones, The Money Shop and Peckhams.
