LOCATION
87 London Road benefits from an extremely prominent roadside location on the A6 London Road, one of the main arterial routes into Carlisle from the south, connecting the city centre to junction 42 of the M6 motorway. The building sits immediately opposite the popular and busy St Nicholas Gate Retail Park, where national occupiers include Asda, Iceland, B & M Bargains and Halfords.

A mid-terrace Victorian three storey building providing retail accommodation at ground floor level and self contained 2 bedroom residential flat above.

Access to the front of commercial property is through a single personnel door. Internally, this area provides mainly open plan accommodation with serving counter.

Two created openings provide access to the individual rooms at the rear, currently used as storage space and kitchen, and from here, access to the rear store, WC and yard.

The residential element of the building benefits from self contained access at street level. At first floor level, the flat provides a good-sized living room, bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.

An integral stairwell provides access to the attic space, which has been converted to a further bedroom. Disc zone and permit car parking is available on the adjacent streets.
