James Mattin, joint managing director agency at Bond Wolfe, said: “We’re delighted to offer this retail investment opportunity in a prime town centre location. This is an attractive and distinctive property, in mock Tudor style, with 5,556 sq ft of retail space across the four units.

“They are clearly attractive to retail operators. Tudor House is fully let and Ladbrokes has recently extended its lease.

“We are expecting this property to draw strong interest from bidders at our next auction."

The property sits on the southern side of Bridge Street, between The Bridge and within 80 metres of Park Street. Nearby is the major town centre redevelopment site at the Old Square Shopping Centre, which is planned to incorporate a Co-op supermarket and Primark.
