Acting on behalf of The Grosvenor Estate, Chester, Beresford Adams Commercial have recently let a prominent Row Level building within the city centre, which comprises substantial and attractive trading areas on both and upper floor level.
The premises have been taken on a new 5 year lease, by local retailers Funky Aardvark, who are expanding from a nearby unit, and will be used for a combination of retail and exhibition/display space. The premises provide a row level sales area of 140.7 sq m (1515 sq ft) plus an upper floor sales area of 86.7 sq m (934 sq ft). The premises have been let on an asking rental of £27,500 pax, on a staggered basis with the equivalent of 6 months rent free on a contracted out lease.
Justin Rice-Jones who handled the letting commented that "this is a particularly attractive and much photographed building within the city centre, which has always been considered ideal for an art showroom or similar use. We are pleased that Funky Aardvark are expanding and will be able to use the building fully. This reflects the fact that there has been a steady improvement of retail enquiries within the city centre during the year”
