KWB APPOINTED TO MARKET FORMER SHIRLEY POLICE STATION

 

Birmingham independent commercial property agency KWB has been appointed to market the former Shirley Police Station in Solihull.

 

Acting on behalf of the West Midlands Police and Crime Commissioner, KWB’s Martin Cook is marketing the freehold of the 8,042 sq ft office building on a 0.43 acre site, as a redevelopment opportunity within Shirley town centre.

 

Situated on the A34 Stratford Road in Shirley, between Morrison’s supermarket and Dove Tree Court retirement apartments, the former police station is classed as sui-generis use in the planning regulations, so purchasers will require planning permission for any other use.

 

Mr Cook says:  “The property is situated within the ‘town centre’ of Shirley and is therefore suitable for a variety of uses including retail, office and residential, subject to planning consent.  The building could be retained, but it is most likely to be redeveloped.  The site is on the southern fringe of Shirley’s main shopping area, the second largest retail centre within the Borough of Solihull.”

 

Offers of over £850,000 are sought.  Further information is available from Martin Cook or Ben Voss-Wood at KWB on tel. 0121 233 2330 or email mcook@kwboffice.com or bvoss-wood@kwboffice.com, or via https://kwboffice.com/property/former-shirley-police-station/
