The property is situated on King Street, Whitehaven's main retail pitch. Neighbouring occupiers include national retailers such as Superdrug, New Look, Costa Coffee and Greggs. The property is a short walk from Whitehaven marina which together with King Street provides a significant service centre for West Cumbria.

Whitehaven is a busy, historic town with a population of 25,000 and an excellent range of good local shops and other businesses. The town is situated on the west coast of Cumbria, 14 miles from Cockermouth, 25 miles from Keswick and 44 miles from Junction 40 of the M6 motorway. DESCRIPTION

The property comprises of three floors of accommodation, with the ground floor providing a high street retail pitch. Most recently occupied by Clinton Cards, the majority of the ground floor is an open retail area which has recently had new LED lighting installed. There is a stockroom, office and staffroom to the rear of the property. There is an exit to the rear of the ground floor, which leads to an external store area and demised WC's, with a yard area that provides access to the first and second floors.

The first and second floors were formerly used as a residential dwelling and all of the amenities are still in place to refurbish the floors for residential use. The former tenant was informally using the floors as further storage areas, but the residential potential is still very much there, with the marina and coast being visible from the second floor. The first and second floors have maintained many of the original features, such as the sash windows facing the high street and ceiling cornices.
