Property for sale

6 High Street is a landmark Victorian building standing on the crossroads of the busy High Street. Previously occupied until recently by Prezzo restaurants, the main infrastructure required for a busy destination restaurant/bar is already in place.

Inside, you are greeted by a soaring full height Reception/Bar area with a glass balustraded feature spiral staircase leading up to the large Mezzanine Upstairs restaurant area.

The main two floors of this building could, with the infill of the double height Entrance/Bar area, provide nearly 4000 ft.² of leisure space.

In addition, there is a small 200sq ft Cellar sitting underneath the front section of the building and to the rear, another self-contained 366sq ft basement with its own separate rear access. This unit is currently let separately to a tenant, who would be happy to remain.

The main building is approx. 23m deep (75ft) and currently has lift facilities, an equipped kitchen and multiple toilet facilities. You will also notice that the glazed front area incorporates two sets of bi-folding doors and on the first floor there is also a side Balcony accessed via bi-folding doors.

It's also worth noting, although the front section of the building is original, the rear roof area offers the opportunity to be extended to a third floor, to create a potential roof garden and bar. (Subject to Planning)

Bursting with potential, this building is shouting out ideas (subject of course to local authority approval), with us imagining full conversion to Residential Flats, conversion of the upstairs and another floor to flats with a smaller Restaurant left downstairs, maybe a rather interesting Jazz Bar/Restaurant, an upstairs Casino with a Roof Garden, or of course, simply another Restaurant... the choice is yours!

LOCATION

Occupying a prominent position on Billericay High Street, the property is also just a 3 minute walk from the Mainline Railway Station (London Liverpool Street in 35 minutes).

The packed historic High Street has many well-known high street names mixed with smaller privately owned boutiques and a central Waitrose Store and the numerous intermingled other restaurants, bars and pubs give the High Street a real buzz of an evening, particularly at the weekends but also during the week.
