DESCRIPTION
The property comprises a vacant two storey (with basement) office building which was previously operated as a library by the local authority.
The property was built in the early 20th century and is of traditional methods of construction, featuring brick-built elevations under a pitched slate roof. Timber single glazed windows are used throughout, which are currently boarded with metal sheeting for security purposes. There are a mixture of solid concrete and suspended timber floors. Internally, the ground floor is partitioned to form a lobby/reception area, storage cupboard and W/C and two office areas, one of which benefits from a partitioned private office, and the other a small kitchenette with fitted base and wall units. The first floor is partitioned to form four office areas, two of which benefit from small kitchenettes, W/C facilities and a central stairwell. The basement was used for storage purposes.
The property retains many original features and offers scope for refurbishment. There is a generous sized yard to the side and rear bound by steel palisade fencing and a brick-built wall with timber fencing.

By setting a proxy bid, the system will automatically bid on your behalf to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to your proxy bid amount. If you are outbid, you will be notified via email so you can opt to increase your bid if you so choose.
If two of more users place identical bids, the bid that was placed first takes precedence, and this includes proxy bids.
Another bidder placed an automatic proxy bid greater or equal to the bid you have just placed. You will need to bid again to stand a chance of winning.
