A distinctive Art Deco building in Swindon’s town centre is to go under the hammer in September.
24-25 Bridge Street opened as a branch of menswear shop Burton in 1931 and was also home to Beatties toy shop before being converted into a series of bars.
In recent years the building has been derelict. Planning permission to convert the upper storeys into eight flats has lapsed.
Now the 10,000 sq ft building will be sold at auction on September 12 by commercial property agent Bond Wolfe – unless it is snapped up first.
The distinctive corner building is close to Ibis hotel, JD Wetherspoons, Café Nero and a wide range of national high street retailers. The Brunel Shopping Centre is nearby.
The ground floor is fitted out as a bar, with the upper floors in basic “shell” condition. The ground floor extends to 3,813 sq ft, the first floor 3,358 sq ft, second floor 3,714 sq ft, giving a total of 10,885 sq ft.
Lily Gartland, senior auction coordinator at Bond Wolfe, said: “It is a site that clearly has redevelopment potential, subject to planning permission, and could suit a variety of future uses including, leisure, retail and conversion of the upper floor for residential or commercial use.”
“This investment opportunity will go under the hammer in our online streamed auction on Thursday 12 September unless sold beforehand.
“It is being offered with Watling Real Estate and has a guide price of £475,000 to £500,000.”
