An attractive lockup shop is now available through Lawson Commercial in the busy village of Wadhurst.

Lawson Commercial have just been instructed to market the freehold of Scantech’s premises on the Ghyll Road Estate at Heathfield, suitable for manufacturing / storage and benefitting from a significant amount of high specification office accommodation.

Scantech are moving to new larger premises in Hastings. The premises consist of two interconnecting units offering just under 6,400 sq ft of space in total.

Unit 22 has a gross internal ground floor area of 1,920 sq ft with a useful mezzanine platform of 557 sq ft ideal as either additional office area or storage.

Unit 23 has been fitted out to a high standard including plenty of suspended ceilings plus air conditioning and LED lighting.

The ground floor has a gross internal area of 1,920 sq ft whilst the 1st floor has been fitted out into a number of office areas totalling some 1,962 sq ft. There is good natural light from windows on the rear elevation overlooking Ghyll Road itself.

This is a great opportunity for a business that has a high office requirement as this building is very well fitted out and in a good state of repair and decoration throughout. It benefits from around 16 car spaces as well as good lorry access and turning area.

Freehold of this calibre do not come on the market often and this one can be purchased for £595,000.

Just on the market through Lawson Commercial is a delightful small shop in Mayfield which is full of character and which formerly traded as an ironmongers.

The shop is some 235 sq ft and is available on a long or short lease at a low rent of £5,250 per annum.  Although this has been used as a retail shop in the past it would be an ideal small office for someone who wants separate commercial premises with loads of character.  It has a wealth of feature beams plus feature fireplaces and would be a delightful working environment.

The rent is only £100 per week and those occupying no other commercial property should qualify for small business rate relief so there should be no rates to pay.

Well worth a look.

A brand new industrial/warehouse/business unit, built to a very high standard, has just become available in Heathfield which is superior to other units of this type in the area.

The main warehouse/business area is 1,556 sq ft with an eaves height of 20’ and an apex height of 22’9” which is taller than average.

There is mezzanine storage of 464 sq ft plus a rear office, 2 w.c.s and a fully fitted shower.

To the front is an attractive brick pavioured area providing loading access and car parking, with nice landscaped surrounds. Being overall 2,488 sq ft. this property needs to be viewed to fully appreciate the facilities. A new lease is available at a rent  of £20,000 pa.

This is one of the smartest industrial style building we have seen in a long time and would lend itself well to someone who wants a good sized office with storage facilities or some form of e-commerce distribution business.

Lawson Commercial are delighted to confirm that the expansion of Hartfields in Uckfield High Street is now off and running. Completion has taken place of the letting to James Hartfield of 73 High Street, Uckfield the former Pepenbury/Autism Sussex charity shop

It was quite a complex series of negotiations. Thus we negotiated a surrender of James Hartfield’s lease on 71 High Street and of the Pepenbury lease of 73 High Street with the simultaneous grant of a new lease on 71 and 73 together to James Hartfield. He can now expand his very successful restaurant having obtained the necessary planning consent which took a while.

We understand work will start immediately on 73 High Street initially before breaking though into 71. The premises may close for a short period but James hopes to keep trading in some shape or form throughout if he can. He has some imaginative ideas in this regard. It is expected that the works will be complete towards the end of June/early July.

This is very good news for the Town to see a local business expand and we look forward to visiting the new venue when it opens fully after the refurbishment.

A charming semi serviced character office suite is now available in Malling Street, Lewes.

The suite comprises 447 sq ft over 2 levels on the 1st floor of Grade II listed building.  On the ground floor is the well established Pastorale Antiques with Cafe du Jardin in the courtyard at the rear. This part of Malling Street encapsulates what attracts people to  Lewes. The office itself is full of character with timber framed sash windows, french windows overlooking the courtyard and cafe at the rear, stripped wood flooring and traditional cast iron radiators that really give this work space a superb classic feel.

The suite is available on a licence at a rent of £850 per calendar month with a contribution to heating, lighting, business rates, building insurance and property maintenance included.

Hot off the press Lawson Commercial have just been instructed to sell a freehold workshop with development potential right in the heart of Herstmonceux village on the main A271.

 It has been used for some 50 years as an engineering workshop but the owners have now retired and the equipment has been removed. The property offers just under 1,400 sq ft on the ground floor with a further 557 sq ft at 1st floor.

It is rare to have a freehold available currently and to have workshop premises right in the heart of a busy thriving village such as Herstmonceux offers an excellent opportunity for a wide variety of uses. It could continue as an engineering workshop, be converted to retail premise to add to the village community or the building lends itself to conversion to residential use subject to planning consent being granted. 

The property is being offered on a freehold basis with full vacant possession for £180,000.

Lawson Commercial have a ground floor office suite on offer at River House in Uckfield which is now available with incentives.

The passing rent is £12,000 pa but the outgoing tenant is prepared to offer incentives for a quick occupation. This suite presents an ideal opportunity for someone who perhaps only needs an office for a short period of time or who wants to test the market about having a formal office.

Just available in Uckfield is a small lockup shop in very good order lying next to Card Factory on the west side of Uckfield High Street.
