SITUATIONThe Property is located on the Tullibody Road, about half a mile to the northwest of Alloa Town Centre. The store benefits from its prominent corner location in a densely populated residential part of the town.
DESCRIPTIONThe premises comprise a single storey building arranged over two units, under a pitched, tiled roof. The larger unit is occupied by The Co-op, trading as a convenience store. Although the smaller unit has historically been sublet, we have been advised that it is the Co-op’s intention to extend into this, thus increasing the size of their existing store. There is a dedicated car park to the front of the property with space for approximately 10 cars.
Unit 1 (Co-op) 222.5 sq m 2,395 sq ft
Unit 2 67.0 sq m 721 sq ft
Total 289.5 sq m 3,116 sq ft
