Porthcawl is an affluent coastal resort and commuter town located 25 miles west of Cardiff and 19 miles south-east of Swansea. The town benefits from being approximately 3.5 miles south of the M4 motorway, with Junction 37 providing access to the UK motorway network.  Cardiff International Airport is located approximately 23 miles to the west and provides scheduled flights to numerous UK and European cities.  Itl has a resident population of 16,000 – but with over 1 million people living within 45 minutes drive and a large tourism base – this population is boosted significantly throughout the year – with over 1,000,000 visits a year.

The property is prominently positioned in the prime pedestrianised section of John Street with other occupiers on the Street including Costa Coffee, Specsavers, Boots, Holland & Barrett, Card Factory, Jenkins Bakery, Peacocks and Poundland, together with a great variety of independent café and retail operators.

The property (which has residential potential) comprises an attractive, prominent three storey building of period construction with a  small single storey extension at the rear and side.  The upper floors lend themselves to conversion to residential / Airbnb subject to planning.  The property has an entrance at the front which opens up to the retail unit on the right but also enabling access to the upper floors straight ahead. There is a garden area at the rear providing potential to substantially extend the property behind the period section.

The property is being offered freehold with vacant possession and offers are sought in the region of £299,000, subject to contract.
