Location
The property is situated at 6 St Mark’s Place East, within a mixed-use predominantly residential area of Preston. Preston city centre is located approximately 1 mile to the south east and provides a wide range of retail, leisure, professional and public amenities, together with Preston Railway Station and the University of Lancashire campus.
Preston Railway Station lies on the West Coast Main Line and provides regular rail services to major regional and national destinations, including London Euston, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
The property is well positioned for access to the surrounding road network. Marsh Lane to the south links eastwards to Ringway, one of Preston’s principal arterial routes through the city centre, providing onward access towards the A6, A59 and wider motorway network, including the M6.
To the west, the local road network provides access to Guild Way and Riversway, with onward connections to the A59 Liverpool Road towards Penwortham and Southport, and the A583 Blackpool Road towards Blackpool, the Fylde Coast and Junction 3 of the M55.
Description
The property comprises a substantial detached former school building arranged over lower ground, ground and first floor levels. The building is of traditional brick construction beneath pitched slate roofs and has historically been extended and refurbished to a good standard. The accommodation is currently used as a design studio with ancillary offices, showroom/display areas, meeting rooms, staff facilities and storage.
Internally, the premises provide a flexible mix of open-plan and cellular accommodation, with good ceiling heights to parts. The layout would lend itself to a range of commercial occupiers, subject to any necessary consents.
The property’s former educational use may also be of interest to specialist education, training or alternative provision operators, subject to planning.
Externally, the property benefits from substantial surfaced areas for parking, circulation and servicing, with approximately 40 on-site parking spaces.
Given the detached nature of the building, the overall site area and surrounding residential context, the property may also offer potential for alternative uses or redevelopment, subject to planning.
