Commercial Property

Property Description:

York House is a very imposing brick built former Council offices, located in the heart of the Historic market town of Chesterfield, sitting just beneath the famous Crooked Spire. This building is arranged over three floors, offering well equipped and maintained accommodation with a serviced lift (not tested) and totals an impressive 1,298 sq m2 (12,109 sqft) floor area.

The ground and first floor has been occupied for many years as bar and restaurant (formerly Baracuda) and is now benefitting from vacant possession(previously let at £50,000 per annum).

The second floor, known as York House Chambers, is let on a nine year FRI from 2019 at £20,000 per annum with a rent review due in October 2022. Potentially, if the property were to be fully let at the previous rent for the ground and first floor, this combined income would produce £70,000 per annum which, based on the guide price, represents an impressive 12.7% return, which will surely appeal to local and national investors. Thought suitable as a potential residential or mixed used conversion subject to usual planning consents. Prospective buyers must make all necessary independent enquiries in this respect for their specific, intended use prior to placing their bid, as this will be binding.
