Commanding an enviable prime position on the attractive town-square in the heart of Barnoldswick. Ideally placed to take advantage of what remains a bustling semi-rural town which comes alive with a vibe of regular organised events through the year including February’s Festival of Arts and Crafts, the iconic Bands on the Square and August’s transformation of the town square into Barlick Beach. There are an abundance of well-established bars, restaurants and cafes on the town square, having seen something of a renaissance to something of a food court, ensuring plenty of footfall for a range of varied and unique shops.

An opportunity to acquire this stone built mid-terrace property affording substantial mixed retail and residential accommodation over four floors. The retail spaces have undergone a programme of modernisation to the credit of the existing owners creating a sizeable retail space over a thousand square foot over the ground and lower ground floor levels. A good-sized residential dwelling [25a] over the first and second floors is accessed privately from the rear of the property comprising a lounge overlooking the town square and two bedrooms, with separate heating etc from the main retail spaces. The residential dwelling is currently rented by a long-standing sitting tenant at circa £400 per month.

The premises are currently operated as a long-established retailer of antiques, curiosities, clothing and a hair salon with a wide range of individual retailers also selling unique finds and renting individual cabinets within the premises, providing a healthy income for the business. The business and its huge catalogue of accumulated stock are available by separate negotiation.
