LOCATION
DESCRIPTION
The property is located approximately half a mile from the centre of Swavesey and approximately 1 mile from the upgraded A14. Swavesey is situated mid-way between Cambridge and Huntingdon (8 miles) with a Guided Bus stop connecting these two locations. Swavesey offers a range of facilities including two schools, post office and shop. Cambridge Services (J28 of the 14) is approximately 1.8 miles away with a range of food, leisure and retail facilities on offer.
The property, which sits on a site of 2.91 acres (1.18 Ha) is made up of three principal parts including the main office block, a workshop / store with first floor offices and a 1.4 acre yard to the rear.

The site extends to 2.91 acres — measured electronically using Geographical Information System (GIS).
Main Office Block: A detached two storey building of steel frame construction with brick clad walls surmounted by profiled steel cladding. The specification of the offices includes double glazed windows, suspended ceilings, central heating and some local air conditioning. The interior of the building has been sub-divided to create individual rooms, one of which is a staff canteen. The building has the potential to be split into two with two centrally located staircases and toilet blocks and the potential to create a second reception area at the front of the property. We understand that the building was originally designed to provide office accommodation with ancillary storage accommodation and the remains of the rear loading doors are still evident to the rear elevation.
Workshop & First Floor Offices: A detached building of steel frame construction with part brick and part profiled metal cladding under a pitched roof. There are two roller shutter doors along the western elevation of the workshop with a further door to the rear. This building provides two bay garage workshop and subdivided storage accommodation on the ground floor with relatively newly installed office space at first floor level with WC’s and kitchen. There is scope to convert the workshop into further office accommodation. Yard: To the rear of the site is an area of approximately 1.4 acres of previously developed land which was latterly used for storage containers. There is scope for redevelopment subject to planning.
To the front of the office building is a bricked paved area providing car parking and ancillary landscaping. Immediately to the rear of the office block is a further paved area providing additional staff car parking.
