LOCATION The premises are situated in the commercial pedestrianised heart of Nuneaton, which is the largest town in the borough of Nuneaton and Bedworth with a population of 71,000 (Census 2001) and a catchment extending to around 120,000. Nuneaton is approximately nine miles north of the City of Coventry and twenty miles east of Birmingham.

The premises are also well located for all other town centre amenities (including bus and railway stations) and public car parking facilities. DESCRIPTION The premises comprise a three storey town centre building forming part of a parade and comprising a ground floor shop unit with selfcontained offices (with their own ground floor entrance) arranged on first and second floors. The ground floor shop has until recently traded as Cashino Gaming (understood to be a sui generis use ie other activities are likely to require planning permission for change of use) and the offices were previously occupied by a recruitment company. Both are considered suitable for a variety of other uses, subject to obtaining any necessary consents. Prospective occupiers should, however, rely on their own enquiries with the Planning Authority as to whether planning permission is necessary for their proposed use. Important Note: The current owners of the property will not entertain a sale for use as a gaming centre and would seek to include a covenant in any contract prohibiting the future use of the building for these purposes. ACCOMMODATION All measurements are approximate and on a Net Internal Area (NIA) basis. SHOP Ground Floor The ground floor lock-up shop has been partitioned by the previous occupiers to provide front sales area with steps up to ancillary storage/office accommodation and toilet facilities, but could be altered to provide a more open plan arrangement, subject to obtaining any necessary consents.
