OFFICE WORKSHOP UNITS, RIVIERA FARM, PHILLACK, HAYLE

LOCATION

Riviera Farm is located in an elevated position overlooking Copperhouse in the harbour town of Hayle on the edge of the village of Phillack.

Hayle stands on the edge of 3 miles of golden sands and is well served by the A30 trunk road in West Cornwall.

PROPOSAL

The property comprises principally of a U’ shaped range of single and two storey traditionally constructed barns centred around a hard surfaced courtyard.

It is intended, subject to sufficient interest, to seek planning approval for the conversion of the barns to a range of workshop and office units for conversion anticipated towards the end of 2011.

A Schedule of the potentially available units, floor areas and guide rents is attached.

The units would be completed to a high standard with the workshop units having suitable heavy duty flooring, three phase electricity and good loading. They will be equipped with single toilet and kitchenette.

The proposed office units will be completed to a high specification having plastered and fully decorated walls, carpeted/wooden floor coverings, modern lighting and IT trunking and will be principally open plan with private toilets and kitchen facilities.

The first floor units can be combined with ground floor units if required.

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST

Potential tenants are invited to complete the attached questionnaire indicating their preferred unit, lease term, and information relating to their proposed business and employees.

This information will be confidential to the owners and their professional advisors but a summary of the information may be included as part of supporting documentation in any planning application.

We would point out that completing the questionnaire does not form any commitment by a tenant to acquire a lease of premises nor any commitment by the freeholder to undertake the conversion of the units and lease the premises, as the development will be subject to obtaining satisfactory planning consent and confirmation of viability of the proposed development.

The questionnaire does however help establish the potential level of interest, the type and nature of potential business occupiers and would ensure that the applicant would be offered their preferred unit in the first instance.

USES

Uses that would qualify for the development would be defined as B1 - Business and Light Industrial Use in accordance with the Use Classes Order Review 2005 and which includes businesses that could be undertaken in a residential area without detriment to that amenity by reason of noise, smell, fumes, smoke etc.

It includes light industrial purposes, research and development and office use excluding those providing financial services.

PLANS

The plans attached and Schedule of Units are draft only for guidance purposes and may be varied in any subsequent planning application.

NOTE

The current proposals are in the development stage and it is not possible at the current time to arrange personal inspections and viewings of the barns internally as they remain unconverted.

However the property can be readily viewed from the roadside.

LEASES

The units will be let on internal repairing terms subject to a contribution to a service charge towards cost of external maintenance, repair and insurance.

Rents to be paid quarterly in advance with rent reviews every 3 years.

Length of term by way of negotiation but subject to a minimum term of 4 years.
