Description
This spacious, detached single-storey building, dating from the early 1960s, offers a distinctive blend of mid-century modern design and practical functionality. Built with a steel portal frame, external cladding, and brickwork, it features striking floor-to-ceiling windows (over 6m high) on the front elevation, giving it a bold and memorable presence.
Internally, the property provides flexible accommodation, including meeting rooms, offices, kitchen areas, WC facilities, and plant rooms, making it suitable for a wide range of commercial uses. The layout offers generous space for both private and communal functions, complemented by a welcoming entrance lobby.
The site also includes open land to the front, with pedestrian access from the public highway and a mature tree that enhances the setting. The plot lends itself to potential comprehensive residential redevelopment for various housing or living arrangements.
