Great investment opportunity to acquire one of three commercial units available within busy location in the desirable village of Hethersett. Prospect House offers two retail units with two offices above and allocated car parking spaces. Three units are let on long term leases with one office on the first floor currently vacant.
Prospect House is situated on Oak Square in the heart of the desirable village of Hethersett on the outskirts of Norwich City. Formerly the village Post Office was housed in the rear retail unit, now the barbers and foot fall in this bustling village is good.
