The property comprises a fine Grade II listed period building within the Town Centre Conservation Area. It has for over 30 years been occupied as a chartered surveyors and estate agents office and display showroom. It offers potential for a wide range of town centre uses including offices, restaurant or residential conversion (subject to appropriate planning permission where necessary). Calderdale MBC indicate they would support residential use.
The recent transformation of the magnificent Piece Hall Britains only remaining cloth hall has raised the profile of Halifax attracting 3 million visitors a year and significantly improved footfall in the Piece Hall Quarter of the town centre. The property is opposite the Civic Trust award winning Westgate covered arcade which will shortly be extended through to Horton Street and the University Business Centre operated by Leeds Becket University.
