19 Burrowgate – Redevelopment Opportunity,

Description

Penrith is an attractive and affluent market town lying less than 3 miles outside the Lake District National Park, making it a natural gateway for visitors heading into the national park.

The town has strong transport links with the Penrith North Lakes Station sitting on the West Coast main line, which is one of the UK’s major rail corridors, together with exceptional road access via the M6 motorway (J40), A6 and the A66, giving it a strong access across the region.

Its position makes it a popular base for exploring both the Lake District and the Eden Valley.

Burrowgate is one of the town’s oldest and most characterful commercial streets, running between the central shopping areas around Devonshire Street and Middlegate.

The town centre’s Bus Station and car parks are located adjacent to the subject property.

National retailers just a short walk from property include Boots, B&M, Marks & Spencer Food Hall, Sainsburys and Sports Direct, together with many independent retailers, cafes, specialty food outlets, pubs and restaurants.
