A modern purpose-built building in West Somerset which is currently used as a hub for small businesses is on the market with development land and planning specialists Greenslade Taylor Hunt.

Beckett House, Bridge Street, Williton, is among a range of buildings owned by Somerset Council, which are surplus to requirements.

The council’s fraught financial position has prompted the proposed sale as it is not deemed in the public interest to retain the building.

The property, close to the centre of the village, is currently tenanted and income producing, but could appeal to a developer looking to enhance the area.

It has good communication links as the A39 and A358 intersect the village making it a favoured location for commuters working in Taunton or Bridgwater.

A spokesman for Greenslade Taylor Hunt said: “There is no recent planning history associated with the property however we believe it has potential for a range of alternative uses including commercial or residential, subject to planning.”

Currently there are three tenants at the property and the planned sale will include them in situ, however all leases can be ended with a maximum of three months’ notice.

The property comprises four offices, two large training rooms, kitchen, toilets and several storerooms. Outside there are nine parking spaces. In total the property extends to around 0.1 hectares (0.24 acres).

Offers on an unconditional basis at a guide price of £200,000 are invited. The deadline for the submission of offers is 12 noon on Friday, August 8.
